I think it's the first time in my life I'm actually really excited by my classes at school.

I have 4 Marketing classes and in each class we have to do a pretty complicated project. The fun part is that it's not bullshit theory stuff anymore, it's actually real life stuff: we have to find clients, get in contact with actual companies marketing managers, create an online marketing proposal for a real client (including an app concerpt). FUN!

I have noticed it's pretty hard to get in contact with someone minimally higher up in big companies. I email and some secretary just says that she will forward my email higher up... and it ends there. I guess next step are phone calls :P Of course, we could always do our project on a smaller company, but what's the fun in that right? All we need is an hour of a marketing manager's time. It's not gonna be easy but it's also not impossible. I'll keep trying :D

Oh and I signed up for some rock climbing classes. Why not?
