Internship + Thesis = Time Management

I haven't written anything for my thesis here since I had my internship which started on May 12. I just finished it last week. I learned a lot from my internship. From doing contact reports, calling media, making powerpoint presentations and presenting it to big bosses, writing a press release, doing an advertorial, creating event flow, etc. I really learned a lot. I will never forget my experience working in that company. People are so nice. My bosses really helped me and guide me in all of my tasks in the office. This experience will really help me in doing my thesis and preparation for my future career. It also helped me to become more mature, to think fast and help me gain self-confidence in some way.

Eventhough there's so much to do at work I still find time to work on my thesis. I usually do my thesis on weekends right after our meeting. I try to finish at least half of my required tasks for the week then finalize everything on Fridays before our meeting day. But since my internship ended, I'll probably work on my thesis everyday. I finished one interview with a guidance councilor for reference on the psyche of Filipinos about social networking. I'm still waiting for the other guidance councilor. I am currently starting on my survey about social networking as well. I divided my respondents into groups such as, teens, yuppies and late 30's. That's my target audience. But I'mthinking of doing extra survey just to make sure I get my target market right. I hope I can finish everything by the end of this week. Maybe on my next blog entry I'll share how I do my thesis... like my guidelines for making thesis just for your reference. I hope it will help all those who are making thesis work.
