I never thought I
would see the day, were I was finally finishing my last ever university
assignment. My final assignment would be my professional practise report for
this unit. Even though this report would be the biggest I have ever written or
had the most percentage worth within my entire degree. I would have to say
that I have actually thoroughly enjoyed writing every component of it. You
could tell that I enjoyed writing it because it would be one of the only
assignments that I have started weeks before hand, unlike the majority of my
assignments, which would have most likely been products of the night before
caffeine fueled cramming sessions. I think it’s safe to say that all of the
Public Relations students, who are winding up their studying days like myself, are
all experiencing a variety of emotions. To be honest,I’m feeling a variety of
emotions, mostly feelings of relief and excitement for the new chapter of my
life and that I have finally reached this milestone in my life. It’s taken me a
lot of obstacles, tears, caffeine and sleepless nights but it is great to reach
the finishing line.
As it’s come to my
end of my internship, I have been exposed to an entirely different industry, in
which I have taken in every moment of the experience. I was very lucky to be
placed within an organization with such down to earth people especially Janelle
and Angel. I don’t think I could have asked for better supervisors to be placed
with, were they didn’t mind answering any of my questions I had, or showing me
multiple times on how to correctly transfer a call with the new hi tech
telephone system (which I think I mastered finally, -thanks angel). They made me feel incredibly welcome, and not
like a work experience student, and that my contribution and assistance was
appreciated. PR393 would be one of the most valuable units I have ever completed
within my degree, because it’s one thing to know and master the theory, but it’s
completely different ball game in real life. You need to know how to take this
knowledge from the last 3 years and put it in practise within the work place,
and some people may struggle with that and some may been incredibly successful.
I have defiantly seen the other side of events and festivals, something many
will never see- the amount of work, time and effort that goes into to planning
just one of these events is enormous. There is a lot of love and passion for
music and culture, especially within the team.
To all the
students reading my final blog, I wish you all the best with your future endeavors!
We finally got
here :D
