Celebrity Guests
Im getting close to the end of my internship. This is my last full week here at the Publick house and it's a bitter sweet moment. In the beginning of the week I get a email from my boss saying you are going to meet the Celtics hall of famer Satch Sanders. I was jumping up and down with excitement that I get to meet a legend who's number is retired and played with Bill Russell. I got to sit down with Mr Sanders for a good hour and just talked about life and basketball and the future. It was one of the best talks I had with anyone. He is such a bright and knowledgeable man and I learned a lot from him. One of the things that will always stick with me is when he said," no matter what be nice to everyone you come across, even if you have to fake it be nice because you never know who can help you in the long run. Look interested, ask questions, ask for a business card anything to get your name out there you can't be shy in this world." That's one thing I won't forget.
How can I forget about the famous professor Conrad. She came and visited me at work and honestly that made my day because there aren't many people like her in this world who truly care about a students success and how the student is doing. When she came it meant to me that she cares about how I am doing and I'm thankful to have someone like that in my life.
I know this blog has been on the softer side compared to my others but it's the little things I appreciate.
