Summer of Garett: Round Here We Stay Up Very, Very, Very, Very Late
http://summerofgarett.blogspot.com/2008/08/round-here-we-stay-up-very-very-very.html
My adventures in Chicago during the summer. Saturday, August 23, 2008. Round Here We Stay Up Very, Very, Very, Very Late. It's sort of fitting that I am writing my final entry in Chicago from the suburbs of Evanston, where I kicked off the summer and this blog a little over 12 weeks ago. How it feels so long ago. Seriously. It will be very interesting the day I actually go back and read what I wrote. This was apparently a different song. News to me. The concert was pretty fantastic though, and I'...The D...

Summer of Garett: June 2008
http://summerofgarett.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
My adventures in Chicago during the summer. Monday, June 30, 2008. Originally uploaded by gng1524. Today ended up being a very important day at work for me as I began to piece together what I've learned in the past few weeks and the direction I'll take the project. And do you know what the secret to figuring this all out? It was the Miller High Life that I had over the weekend. Yes, this blog is now sponsored by the High Life.

Summer of Garett: August 2008
http://summerofgarett.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
My adventures in Chicago during the summer. Thursday, August 28, 2008. My last morning in Chicago started off with a drunken text message at 4 am from my new "friend" Barack. Okay, maybe not a drunken message (although who would really know whether it was or not? But his VP announcement text message came through, woke me up since I thought it was my alarm clock, and then prompted me to go back to sleep. A little over two hours later, I was up again and on my way to the airport. The second fun aspect is e...

Summer of Garett: The Final Sprint
http://summerofgarett.blogspot.com/2008/08/final-sprint.html
My adventures in Chicago during the summer. Monday, August 18, 2008. So here we are. The final days. I had three more days left, and now I have two. As Laura said to me yesterday, "It's the beginning of the end." My final week. How sad. Made some minor tweaks to the big presentation tomorrow to the schedulers. I am reminded of the wise words of my college mentor/boss Patrick when he kept reiterating the mantra, "Know your audience! We'll see what tomorrow brings. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Summer of Garett: With Warm Regards
http://summerofgarett.blogspot.com/2008/08/with-warm-regards.html
My adventures in Chicago during the summer. Tuesday, August 19, 2008. I've always found it interesting how people sign off on emails. Among the ones I've seen in the past few years: "Thanks," "Yours truly," "Regards," "Kind Regards," "Warm Regards," "Best Regards," "XOXO," "Best Wishes," and "Cheers." I can now add "Truthfully and Sincerely" to that list. Hilarious. Glad the writer was both truthful and sincere! It came from a replied Thank You email I started to send out today at work. The strangest mom...

Summer of Garett: July 2008
http://summerofgarett.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
My adventures in Chicago during the summer. Tuesday, July 29, 2008. If my internship was like a typical three-act play, then. The first act would be about the observation, shadowing, and initial information soaking that I did for the first few weeks of the summer. The second act would be the call monitoring and measuring that I did at the call center and the hours of brainstorming of ideas and solutions that I did afterwards. Before we ended, I agreed to do an expanded version of my presentation to her a...

Summer of Garett: The Day After
http://summerofgarett.blogspot.com/2008/08/day-after.html
My adventures in Chicago during the summer. Thursday, August 21, 2008. On my first day of "freedom" from the internship, I woke up at 6:30 am. Call it a force of habit, but when I woke up and looked at the clock, I rolled my eyes and went back to sleep. Woke up again at 8 am and after several attempts to go back to sleep, I gave up and started the day. But before I go into details about my first day out of jail, I guess I should describe a little bit about my final day at the hospital. To make it a legit.
