ad get to participate in OIAM 3! =)
So, I'm not sure it's good or bad workin at Media Prima... What do you think about it? Will you try to intern at Media Prima after what I had presented to you? Anyways, in my opinions, I'm above the fence bout workin at 8TV... I believe it will somehow leave both, good and bad memories while workin in 8TV... But now, I'm somehow part of 8TV family ad! =D I do feel proud at the moment (although I dun get paid and I've been assign not under any dept tat is related to my course at all!) bcoz I enjoy what I'm doin now! ;)
What do you think? Leave me a comments bout how u feel bout tis! K?
Till then, take care! I'm so gonna be busy everyday includin weekends! I hav OIAM 3, UPG and more events to come! Gonna b darn tired!
Ciao~
