"Glad it's Monday tomorrow, only have to get up at 7.15am", or 'Tourism Taken Too Far.'

Dinner in the Desert lit by Giraffes on Fire.

Florida: Flip-flop lickin' good!

Hola! SO, I have just begun my fourth week working at Jabil, and I fear time is slipping away ever so fast! The whole thing's been a blast so far, busy but loving it! This week has been a great one for really plunging into the depths of my current...

Bit of a catch up!

Oh, how good it feels to know you've just robbed Ralph Lauren blind!

Halfway now!

Hello All, Well its half way through my internship, and it is difficult to articulate how much I have learnt and been exposed to here in Florida. Last week, I was privy to some very interesting information and meetings at Jabil, which has helped me feel...
