1/3 of the way done!

Another friday has come and I'm now two weeks into my internship! Crazy! I can't believe I'm a third of the way done already! Where have the last two weeks gone?
Fridays here have been slow. At least the last two now. Because there are always a lot of people that take Friday off and the firm has a lot less activity. Less phone calls, less packages, fewer people needing help. They just drag on and on. And today was one of those days.
When I got there I finished up the last and final spec binder for the Delta Hotel. The last binder was one just for the firm to keep. But that didn't take me too long unfortunately. Me and Laura worked on ordering all the carpet poms we needed to order and then after that we moved on to just straightening around the office.
SO fun.
I actually really do like organizing and straightening and the library here needed it badly. We basically worked on that the rest of the day. Everyone seemed really really pleased with what we had done too. I don't think it had been organized thoroughly in a long while. We're not quite done yet though. We still need to go through all our wood samples and all the leather. And there is a ton of leather. But we went though all the fabric bins and all of our many many shelves of random different finishes and things.

I did a lot of it on my own because Laura was asked to help with something else during the middle of our organizing spree. And all of a sudden today a thunderstorm broke out and it was so neat! We're on the seventh floor and the material library has a great view overlooking the city! It was so neat to see the lightning strike when you're overlooking the city!
I found another box of poms today in the library that we hadn't looked through yet to find the missing ones, so I did that right before I left today and sent an email to the companies rep.
I hope Fridays get a little more eventful in the future, but since it is summer many of the firms employees take 'summer fridays' off and the day just seems to be slower in general. Oh well...
And now its the weekend and I LOVE WEEKENDS. I'LL GET SLEEP TONIGHT.  :)
