September 20 - September 26

This week Shay and I have been working on getting our philanthropy project together. Our "Happy Project", as we've been told to call it, is a clothing drive for a local Norman shelter. We've been communicating with VS headquarters trying to figure out exactly what shelter we're going to donate our clothes too. We've contacted several different shelters and organizations, and we've been trying to iron out all the details. Ideally, we'd like to incorporate our Happy Project into this year's Homecoming festivities. We've been trying to contact the head of this year's Homecoming, but it's been difficult. We also have been in contact Student Life since Homecoming is an OU sponsored event. This week I also have been working on transferring girls' information from the forms they filled out by hand to the Pink Nation sign up online form. Transferring the information isn't difficult, it's just time consuming and tedious. I've continued with surveys and blogs on the VS PINK Intern website, just like the other weeks. A huge part of this internship is being a part of focus groups and helping VS merchandisers come up with new and innovative ideas for the new VS PINK collections. Next week we have more promotional events with different student groups. I'm looking forward to meeting new people and getting more girls to sign up for Pink Nation. This week i've learned the importance of following up. We have had several shelters and individuals not respond to our emails. I have gotten experience with how to follow up with people tactfully, and not in an annoying way.

Monday: 1:00 - 3:00 (2 hours)

Wednesday: 1:00 - 3:00 (2 hours)
Thursday: 4:00 - 6:00 (2 hours)

Total = 52 hours
