This time last year I was a nervous
wreck because as I was taking finals and writing massive papers, I
was also going through the interview process for an internship in
Pune, India. I was checking my email like a stalker watches his
object of affection anxiously waiting to hear whether or not they had
chosen me. As I prepared to leave my house to take my final exam
which just happened to be Media Law, I checked my email not believing
what I had read. Sangam World Centre had chosen me to be their first
Marketing Communications Intern. I was astonished. I called my
parents and texted a good friend to relay the news. Walking to my
Media Law final I called my boss and turned in my notice. I am going
to be honest and tell you that I was scared out of my mind to pack
things up and go to India. Luckily, I have friends like Angie and
Kort who gave me the courage I needed to move forward with my
journey. I had friends like Sofi who helped me get my plane ticket
and all my stuff down to Salt Lake and Gillian who let me keep my
stuff at her place until I returned.
I really just want to give a heart felt
sincere thank you to my family and friends who have supported me
during the whole India process and who have also stood by my side
during all of the hardships that I have encountered since returning.
You ARE my true friends. To my family I love you more than words can
describe. Without all of your help (friends and family) I would not
have been able to enjoy such a wonderful and exciting opportunity!
Ah, Robyn! You are an inspiration to me!
