Week 14, Nov. 22-26

Since Thursday was Thanksgiving the Senate was only at work on Monday and Tuesday, so therefore I only had to be there on Monday. On this day, I completed all my clippings, which I remember there was a lot for some reason. Then I had to make my final phone calls to senator's who hadn't responded to my press releases. I was there from 8:30-12:30, as usual.

Week 13, November 15-19

Twelfth week of my internship!! This week both days I finished my clippings, then worked on getting in touch with the senator's who hadn't written me back yet on my road releases. I called a few and e-mailed all of them. I heard back from everyone but two, so I went ahead and sent all the approved ones to the correct counties media outlets. Matt said I would have a pile of new press releases over Thanksgiving break....So my days will get a little busier! I have a job interview next week and Malia (my supervisor at the Senate) said she would be my main reference. I'm looking forward to graduating and working!

Week 12, November 8-12

This is week is week 12 of my internship. This week on Monday and Wednesday I of course did my ritual clippings, then worked sending out more press releases I had written to the appropriate senators. As soon as they wrote me back I sent them to the appropriate media outlets. I think this internship has greatly helped me associate myself with professionals at the upmost level. I don't know many interns who get to discuss issues with senators on a daily basis. It's my favorite part of my internship! Both days I was there from 8:30am-12:30pm finishing up my work.

Week 11, Nov. 1-5

Week 11 of my internship! This week all i did was my clippings everyday, and continued on my press releases. I wrote ten on one day, and eleven on the other day. I only have 13 left, which I should finish on Monday. Matt has been behind on looking at my press releases, so I haven't sent any out to the senator's yet, which will be my whole next week! Both days I was there from 8:30am-12:30pm.
