Work has been keeping me busy, obviously, but it has been going well. I have learned most of my day-to-day responsibilities, such as updating the seminar website, making seminar materials, and planning future seminars. The interesting part has come in the side projects I am beginning to receive- I made a seminars & programs newsletter, which I was frustrated about because of the slow turnaround time my group had with edits, and 11th hour changes to the content, but this morning it was sent out to the entire firm (!) and everyone complimented me, saying that i had gotten the newsletter out the fastest they had ever seen. I have also been doing things such as throwing a party for the director of marketing and data analysis tracking views of our media presentations. By far, the projects are the most interesting part and I have already learned so much just from being exposed to the work that I have to do.

So what am I doing with all of my free time, you may ask? Well Friday night I went to Harvard Hogwarts Square to pick up the new Harry Potter book! It was a lot of fun, there were HP themed bands playing, "magical" food at the restaurants, and of course a 1 1/2 hour line to get the book at midnight! I did not get to have a marathon reading session as I had to work at the restaurant all weekend, but I finished all 750ish pages last night- it was amazing. I can't think of a better way to end the series.

So in a nutshell... that is whats news from Boston!



Brad and myself at Hogwarts Square, at 1:30 am, with our books! We were trying to get the clock from the Cambridge Savings bank in the background, but clearly that didn't work
