November 13-17

This was the last week of my internship, and I am graduating on Saturday! It was bitter sweet leaving the Senate and OU for the last time. I loved college, but at some point it's time to grow up. I spent my last day on Monday (since I had a final on Wednesday) doing my last bit of clippings and discussing with Malia (my supervisor) my future plans. I made and brought Christmas cookies for everyone I worked with and I hope they have a job opening at some point because I loved working there! I also ran a few errands around the senate, collecting checks from Senators for a charity this Christmas. All in all this was a great semester and I think learned more in my internship than any other class!

December 6 - December 10

My second to last week at my internship! Both these days I finished all my political clippings and wrote some press releases, sent them to Matt and had them edited. Next Monday I will finish them up and be done with my internship.

November 29-December 3

I cannot believe this semester is almost over and I will be graduating in two weeks!! We have been very slow at the Capitol, since all the furry from the recent election has subsided. I currently have finished all my press releases so this week on both days I worked on my clippings and designed some folders for Malia, Matt and Jennifer to send out to the new senators and congressman. I actually got to meet the Oklahoma GOP leader, a very nice guy. Both of theses days I was there from 8:30-12:30, just running errands for Malia. I have been very sick with Pertussis (who knew that even existed), and I think I am driving everyone in my office crazy with all my intense coughing sessions. But they are all so nice, so they will never say anything except ask me if I'm OK. The truth is, I'm starting to annoy myself.
