Week 12

11-13-17- A lot of packing has been done at this point and by some miracle there wasn’t much packing going on. Maybe it was because I like the only one there but I digress. Anyways, The film event is today and we’re doing phone calls to confirm that the people are going. At this point I’ll take phoning duties over moving stuff so no complaints here. Most of the day passes by quick and after lunch we head to the conference room for a bit of practice for the film event. They started with general introductions, their organization and their message about cooperate media which transitioned to a film screening. We watched a bit of a film documentary that they were using and were asked to ask questions as if we were the audience. A few questions were asked by me and another volunteer and I feel that we got adequate answers. Not sure if the audience at the screening will ask similar questions since the people they invited were people journalists and other people that were informed about the dilemma but I’m glad we were able to help.

11-17-17- This day was truly a long one. The majority of the day was moving old boxes filled with their magazines and putting them in less obstructive places. Those boxes are heavy! Years worth of volumes inside these old dusty, and even damaged boxes. Really do not like breaking a sweat in work. In fact, the whole point of going to college with a graphic design degree was to avoid this sort of work. At least I had a few volunteers share in my torment. Really starting to get a hatred for boxes now. Exaggerations aside, it was a productive day.
