    I will have to agree and disagree with Michael’s last blog post. Yes, we slack on our blogging. But who doesn’t? I personally spend more time reading blog posts then actually writing them. I would assume others do the same.

    In agreement, Michael’s point about us interns being extremely busy is definitely spot on. Between our 9-5 agency jobs and spending countless hours on our Moonstruck work… the only time I get to blog post is, well, in my sleep.

    Super Intern

    Don’t get me wrong, being extremely busy is NOT a bad thing, which is why this post is titled “Good Intern, Good”. I just started my second week, at my second agency – The New Group (TNG) – and I couldn’t be happier. My time here has been spent working on real client research and writing proposals and creative briefs, something i’ve really enjoyed. I’ve tried my best to help out and offer my assistance in any area I can, because these agency days just keep flying by!

    Great moments at TNG thus far have included international conference calls with people who barely speak English, meeting fellow Sigma Chi Fraternity brothers, going out to Lunch with someone new everyday, and of course… a happy-hour Pizza making contest where Jenny cheated and somehow beat out my exotic wilderness meat pizza. I either lost because of my intern status… or because too many people were vegetarian? Can’t say for sure, but I do know that agency life is something I can’t wait to be a part of on a full-time basis. Maybe then I’ll win a pizza making competition…

    As for the Moonstruck campaign, I’m very happy with where Team Marble is headed. After developing a detailed waterfall calendar and talking with everyone about their specific duties, I feel completely confident that we won’t be at each other’s throats by the end of the internship. We are making great progress and although I don’t want to say we are “ahead of schedule”, I think we are in a spot that will allow us to produce the best work possible and not half-ass anything. I’m looking forward to our finished products. Stay tuned!
