PictureThe events office was festively decorated when I arrived, and Javi had sent me flowers earlier in the week.

Well, as of yesterday, I am officially one year older. It was a “Thai, pie” birthday!  I came to work to all of these decorations. And then my team and I all went out for Thai food for lunch—pineapple fried rice- Yum!  Speaking of yum, Christina made a delicious apple pie!  Then I went home to more Thai food, peanut curry made by my roommates, and cherry pie.  I was a full, happy, 23 year old.  And perhaps the best part of the day was Skype with Javi, a call with Mom, and a call with Scott.  Just lovely.

After seeing those pictures, you may be thinking, “that office knows how to party!”  Indeed we do.  The events team knocked boss’s day out of the park this month.  However, we missed Wombat Day last week, as we were just unprepared. Well, there is always next year.  And just so you are not caught off guard, Wombat day is October 22.

In two days I am off to the Rejuvenate Marketplace Meeting Planners’ Conference in Daytona Beach.  It will be 4 days of non-stop conversations with vendors and venues, and hopefully a collection of a lot of great ideas from the event planning industry.  Be prepared for an upcoming post about reverse trade shows and Soledad O’Brien.

Last Saturday we had a “Fall day” excursion to a pumpkin patch in Boulder followed by butternut squash macaroni and cheese for our fall dinner party. It was a great day of fellowship and everything autumn. 

Joining me in the picture is Michelle Lippoli, the guest contributor from my last post

Check out this video! It’s the trailer for the reality show on EWTN that followed students at our last SEEK national conference.

This is fun. See what state best fits your personality. You know it just sparked your interest.  I turned out to be Montana.  I could see it fitting as far as my desire for calmness and my introverted nature.  But am I considering a move to Montana?  No, thank you.

It is Friday in the office, our bosses are gone, and we are getting antsy.  Our solution? Shoot a team video, of course.  I will consider sharing the completed version later.
