GoldFire Marketing Group

I am so relieved that my Wells Fargo project for Advertising and Promotions is finished today. The Presentation has been made to the representatives from Wells Fargo, now all that is left is for our group, GoldFire Marketing Group, to win that scholarship!

Now perfecting this presentation meant long hours this week. Last night Ian and I had to redo our ads to in order for them to print large enough for us to pass out. This meant sitting in the UC lab and learning how to use Photoshop since Adobe Fireworks wasn't available. We got there at around midnight and didn't finish till almost 2am. Our other group mate Bill came but since we were too busy figuring that program out we didn't get to practice. SO pretty much Bill's time was wasted and Ian and I spent 2 hours screaming at a Mac. In the end though they came out beautifully, for a second time :D Here are the pictures. I am so proud haha!


Anyway I plan on sleeping in Saturday till around 2pm so if I don't answer my phone that is why :D Please don't bother me I will be near comatose!

what? ME? noooooo

Alright so in this past week a lot has been going on. Tests and projects, so much stuff to do, I was so tired by Friday that the circles under my eyes were at a whole new level of purple. One of my group members for Advertising class even commented about it, that's how you know its bad! :D Its okay though I had a good Friday night adventure. I went to find a Good Times burgers place, which was in Windsor, but got lost..sort of. Then went to my friend Nick's place and watched one of my favorite shows "Top Gear" from the UK. It was a lot of fun!

Okay SO funny things that happened to me this week...pretty much got caught being silly...mostly its just funny

I work at night and pretty much scan files all night when all the other workers go home. My boss is nice enough to allow me to watch dvds on my computer, listen to music, do sudoku, etc. As long as the work gets done. SO I was enjoying myself singing along to some 311 songs real loud just scanning and singing haha yeah it was a good time. All of a sudden I hear a scuffling behind me and it started to freak me out slowly so I turned my head slowly and I see the security guard peeking his head around the corner. Oh man I jumped! Turns out he was standing there listening to me belt out off key for a while haha he didn't even say anything just walked through my room then through the office and back out my room again and kinda chuckled a "have a good night." Yeah...I didn't start singing again for a few minutes...

Sorry no pictures this week :D I will try hard for next week! PROMISE!

To Vegas and Back Again...

Well I was lucky to be able to go to the SEMA show in Vegas this year. I left on Wednesday night and got back Friday night at midnight. We stayed in this SERIOUSLY cool room at the Signature at MGM Grand...definitely staying there again :D ANYWHOOO the SEMA show was seriously cool, there were tons of amazing cars and exhibits! The weird thing was that it was actually smaller than it has been in the past, and it was still huge. So on a side note my feet have never been more sore in my life! Legs hips, shoulders, toes haha so so very sore. It was definitely worth it though!



On the school front, I got into the Ad Campaigns class! I am so excited! I have been wanting to take this class for a while now and I am finally eligible as a senior. So I found out I got in on Wednesday, I am so stoked for next semester! Today I went to work with the Marketing club at our concession stand at the last Football game of the season! It was fun, way better than last time...we weren't freezing this time! We raised a lot of money for Fill Monfort's Hat which is a fundraiser for Juvenile Diabetes Research. That was way cool...there was another source of excitement as well...After the big helicopter craziness, which was surprising no doubt, we saw John Elway...yeah no joke! People were going insane lol! Here are some pictures from today!





Well that's it for now! Tons of big projects due! There is bound to be some excitement haha!
