So today was my first day in the office. The office itself is a very sweet place. The people I work with are even more awesome. I really didn't do anything today... just felt like busy work. My adviser wasn't in today so there was no real direction today. The marketing girl just had me go through magazines with similar target audiences as Relevant and researched their advertising agencies. The logic is to contact their agencies and try and get them to advertise in our magazine, too. We are just starting the process of getting some national advertisers in the publication instead of just Christian advertisers. I am hoping that Philip (my adviser) is in the office tomorrow that way I can start to have some type of direction or vision of where we are going and what exactly is expected of me. My biggest worry, though, is that I won't have something visual to show that I contributed to Relevant. I mean... the design interns will be designing spreads and graphics, the editorial interns will have published articles. But me--I'm afraid I won't have a hard copy of anything to show in my portfolio. At the very least, I will have something to put on my resume. But yeah... just a few things on my mind after my first day. After work, I just came back and the guys and I watched some Arrested Development, and went and bought some Little Caesars for dinner. Played some Halo and Rock Band... the usual. I'm going to bed a little bit earlier tonight than I did last night. I am very optimistic about tomorrow. Thank you for all of your thoughts and prayers. They mean more to me than you'll ever know.

Keep on chugging away buddy. You'll have some ups and downs, but I'm sure it will all work out and turn out awesome! I hope you're enjoying the humidity there. Sorry, I couldn't resist. I hope all is well with you man. Hopefully, I have enough time in a week or so and I can call you. Talk to you later, bye.
Your buddy,
Matt Groves
