The Intern

First week, DONE. I have been a marketing intern for about 43 hours as of right now. I have been working away diligently in my OFFICE. I HAVE AN OFFICE. Calling people. Taking calls. Making lots and lots of lists. Decorating. You know I couldn't resist the decorating. Yankee candle just happens to be directly next door. Needless to say, but I'll say anyway, my office smells amazing. People walk by and ask what I'm burning. Pumpkin yumminess, that's what. But about the decorating.

My internship is split between where I currently am and the local CVB. That being said, I simply cannot load down with stuff I own to make everything feel super-duper personal, so I added a touch here and there.

This is my tea set for one. It's sad at home because... well.. it's tea for one, but perfect at work because it's TEA FOR ONE! It also looks adorable on my shelf.

I also added a five wine bottle tea light holder, which I cannot find an image of to save my life.

Moving into an office can be a big moment. It was for me, even though I know when I leave in about a month, my desk and walls and big door go bye bye and I'll have a community office. Desk- yes, my own door- no. Goodness, I've already been spoiled. But I'm still SO excited. A trick when having your own office, is not to over kill this with your excitement. A few photos, a couple trinkets, and some candles offer the homey-ness I prefer without making me feel overwhelmed by stuff. However, I'm not saying that practically living in your office is a bad thing. Well.. it might be, but I don't judge. If your time spent there is excessive and many in years, then what the heck. Add some throw pillows. I honestly thought about bringing my yoga mat for breaks. Now that I'm thinking about it, I still may.

Have fun with your office! Make it feel like your space. I still suggest against fish. You already have enough responsibility at work. No need to add lives to that.

Have a Happy Day!
