Post Your Internships

Hey everyone, when you get an internship let all of us know by posting what you will be doing and where you will be going.

Pangea Day

Hi everyone, hopefully you are all able to watch a little of Pangea Day on CityTV. It is really interesting and worth a gander. The show started at 2 and goes to 6.

First day on the job

Hey everyone! So today I started at Free the Children and I need to talk to my IPMP people! I felt like a lemming following all the suits this morning with the million other people on their morning commute. I'm going downtown from Burlington and I hate how long it takes. I left really early this morning though because I didn't know how long it would take. I started off on a frantic foot as I managed to literally break my shirt on the way to work and ran around like a crazed woman trying to find a shop open so I could buy a new one!!

The job itself, I didn't really start today. I got the whole introduction thing, along with some envelope stuffing and wrote a biography on myself. However, everyone was extremely friendly and the work they do there is pretty awesome. I'm very excited to start my actual work that I'll be doing. I'll be the key contact person for the organization with OCIC and doing proposals and odd things. 

I'm STRESSED though!! I don't know how I'm going to actually complete these 3 classes without going to class! Once I figure out what all the assignments are and the due dates I'll take it from there. I'm hoping groups will adopt me even though I won't be in class. I know I'll get all the work done but I'm not sure how accomodating the teachers will be in allowing me to write tests on certain days.

Anyways, I just wanted to let people know it went well and they're all extremely welcoming if anyone ever wanted a tour of the place. I missed the class today and wished everyone was there with me to make it easier! Class with everyone is safe - the real world without IPMPers to help me was unsettling but exciting. I hope everyone keeps in touch!

Question: do you like your hands? If yes, then you better get your mammy to knit you some mitts you baby, because Sweet Thing* is playing this Thursday and will have you clapping hard. They are playing with Hamilton's own The Arkells at the Mod Club and it's guaranteed to be an epic night. It's even been given the Kevin O'Neill seal of approval. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

* We realize that you may have never heard of Sweet Thing or the Arkells but it is in your best interest to get to know them....this Thursday, May 8th at the Mod Club.
