I can feel the effects of the wedding season in my life, today is the first Saturday that I have not had to work or prepared for a wedding in the coming weeks and I am bored. I have no idea as to what to do today, its funny how quickly I became used to the hectic schedule of a planner.
This past week has been rather slow, we have mostly been talking and working on my own personal method once I enter the "real world" and so far that is the plan for next week as well. It is really nice that Alisha goes so far out of her way to help me get on my feet at the end of my internship.
The most significant event of interest this week was pitching for a fund raising organization for the Phoenix Art Museum. Alisha takes on a community service project each year and learned about this one at our gallery wedding a few weeks ago. We dressed nice and met with the group Wednesday morning and discussed what services she would be able to offer probono for these ladies in their efforts to raise money for the gallery. It was interesting to see Alisha make a formal pitch to offer her services free of charge. You would think they should be thankful that she is willing, but it was a formal like interview. What I learned is that in this industry you are constantly building on your own personal reputation and therefor should take every interaction seriously and behave professionally. Treating each client as though they are your first priority.
Other than that I have been getting into the job hunt mind set...any ideas??
