My 4th day in New York

Hmm, where do I start with this blog today?  Well, I started my internship at thegrio.com today. I was initially nervous about little things, but at the end of the day, it was pretty cool.

I met an intern named Jonathan and Marquise and a couple of other one’s. They were sooooo sweet and sooooo helpful and I thoroughly enjoyed the staffers as well. I love how there isn’t a hierarchy. Everyone sat in the same area and I’ve never seen that before. It makes for some good bonding though I’m sure!

Another cool thing that happened was that I wrote my first story for thegrio.com and it was published! Here’s the link: http://thegrio.com/2012/06/13/nene-leakes-to-launch-affordable-clothing-line/

I was so excited! Everyone was just so cool, I can’t get over it. After thegrio.com, we went to an event at Tracy Reese’s store for Black Girls Rock. It was pretty cool. Saw a lot of familiar faces there so that was pretty awesome.

Ms. Bonds is such a sweetheart; I just want to say that. You come across very few people like her in this world and I tell you, I’ve only been around her for two day’s and she is timeless.

Of course I couldn’t end the blog without mentioning that we got lost again today, lol, smh. I will never understand. It got to a point where I don’t even get mad anymore because we’re able to see some sights, not only that, but we’re all held accountable for all of us getting lost! There isn’t just one person reading a GPS, we all are! Which makes it worse because it means that none of us read it right! Lol, you have to learn to sweat the small stuff man.
