Today was my first day at the Atlantic Treaty Association (ATA), where I'll be interning for the remainder of the semester. I got off to a fabulous start...aka work up late and took the quickest shower known to mankind to make up for lost time. After rushing rushing rushing to get there, I ended up getting to work 15 minutes early....yeah I'm that good at freaking myself out.
Anyway, once at the office I met all the important peeps I'll be working with (Mirimam, the Slovakian intern, Pawel, the Canadian-Polish Project Director, Charlotte Peters the Belgian Director, Troels Frøling the Danish Secretary General and Edmond Poullet the Belgian Treasurer) it was wicked sweet to meet the entire staff even though they won't all be there every day.
I was promptly set to work on editing the newsletter that will be distributed at the Kiev conference.... and that was wicked time consuming. Editing became more of interpreting because I had to try and understand what the original message was and where it was going. For lunch, we had a mini birthday celebration for Edmond at the office and it was very nice to be included on my very first day! After our one and a half lunch it was back to work work work!!!!! But it's a great office to work in and I'm really excited to see what I'll be doing in the future.
(at least tomorrow will include more editing but this is all for the Kiev conference which is less than three weeks away!)
