Summer's Almost Over

Wow - what happened to summer? Am I really in the midst of PowerPoint hell (that reminds me a lot of MAP powerpoint hell)? Wow. Things are still going well, and here's a highlight of the past few weeks.

* Midterm review with boss went well. I asked if there were any areas that are showing up as "red flags", and boss said "if there were, you'd know..."
* We're officially second years. Got an email saying that.
* Recruiting is starting to ramp up - our resumes are due Friday - aah! I should get on that...
* Shopped around recommendations for final presentaion and got good feedback. Started to circulate pieces of the final presentation.

Now I get to practice for the final presentation which is coming up MUCH faster than I want it to. I'm excited to give it, and a little nervous.

conversation with my boss

Sippets of conversations i've had with my boss:

boss: hi fromcali, how is it going?
me: good, i'm just doing this analysis that i said i was going to do earlier
boss: good, well i'm going to need you to do some analysis on this instead. i have some other stuff i need your to help me with. can you help me out?
me, thinking "can i actually say "no": sure, no problem. who should i talk to about the more nitty gritty details?

a couple of days later...
me: here boss, i have the analysis for you.
boss: this is solid.
me: cool, thanks, glad to help.
boss: you keep doing good work, i'll keep giving you more things to do.
me, wondering if my internship wasn't enough work: uhh, thanks.

So I guess things are going well.
