The Beginning of the Week
At the beginning of this week, I was riding up to the office with a sluggish body and tired mind. I had hardly remembered what day it was and what I had done the previous days. Upon arrival I was greeted with a birthday present from the other interns and our manager. My desk was covered in decorations and two toy motorcycles, since they knew about my goal of buying one this summer.
The Work
During the week I had to work on some more projects in my department and had helped create some flyers and posters for our big intern project. A couple meetings about this project happened as well. A representative from Futures Foundation came and talked with us about what they take and that they will use the donations to supply new teachers for the upcoming school year in Volusia County.
The Meeting
The meeting on Wednesdays happened and we started to hit some roadblocks. Not with what to do but how to go about it. I feel we struggle as a group to move forward with a census and the ones chosen to be leaders for our project talk the least.
Field Trip
On Friday, I journeyed up to Jacksonville and toured the Paul Davis Restoration headquarters. We got to see many machines used for water removal. I took pictures for my office to share at the end for our presentation. They had built an entire house inside this building for flood training and flood the house hundreds of times a year.
Don’t forget to document your progress on the flyers and other campaign materials. You can take screenshots and photos once things become printed. These will help enhance your portfolio and you can even add images to your posts on the blog.
That field trip sounds really interesting! I am trying to imagine a house that can be repeatedly flooded. If you are allowed to share these photos, they would make a great addition to your next blog post.
