And so it is

So this is my final blog entry yay! I've already finished my 20 day internship but am still at Colosoul as I have a few loose ends to tie up! I'm still working on my Basement event which I'm sure will be HUGE but am also working on getting support from people who have battled hardships to become the successful people they are today. I'm also looking at getting involved with some uni events so that's very exciting for Colosoul because it means we're getting out there and mixing with the people who really count: YOU GUYS! If it weren't for young people Colosoul wouldn't even exist and I wouldn't be as insanely motivated about PR as I am now!

There's nothing much to write really; I'm in a stagnant phase at the moment as I'm doing a lot of 'behind the scenes' work - a lot of researching, writing, refining, negotiating. It's been pretty quiet which actually makes me more apprehensive than usual because it feels like I'm not doing my job right!

Report-wise, it's getting there and when I say that I think I speak for everyone! But it's quite interesting actually to write it all out then read back because you notice a lot of things you didn't notice while you were doing everything. For example, when reading back about my sundowner, I realise how silly it was to organise such a large scale event in such a short space of time. Yet at the time, it seemed perfectly reasonable and attainable!

you sound like you've been able to get really involved in your placement which is awesome. are you staying on there for a while or just to finish up current projects? good luck, hope they offer you a permanent spot if you enjoy it that much!

Hi Nur

Glad to hear that you're all done, and that the report is coming along nicely. I am still working on mine :-)

I know how you feel sometimes...you are doing small menial tasks, and then all of sudden, there are a million things to do! I guess work goes in cycles, and when its busy, its really busy!!

I also understand how short the time period turnaround can be for events. You think that you have lots of time, and then...BAM! Its time for the event to begin!

Are you planning on staying at your placement afterwards to help out? Any whisphers of a job offer?

All the best Nur!
