Inside the building

















Hi!




I have been working for WD 2 weeks now and I am still very happy with what I am doing.




Every week I get to know the company better and have the chance to attend interesting meetings with several big clients of WD.




With this message I just wanted to show you some pictures of my working environment. I don't know if I mentioned it, but at WD the the offices are very open and creatively decorated. This makes it nice and inspiring to work here.




Check the pictures!

First week at Disney


Today I was happy that I could finally sleep in the morning. For the last week, every morning I wish I was a student again..But when I arrived at the company that feeling dissapeared quite quickly. The nice working environment, new people and the feeling that you will be responsible for a certain assignment gives more fulfillment than being just a student.

During this first week I was happy I didn't have to do that much. My assignment was to look around, talk with different managers and try to understand how the company works. Still, to put all the links together and to remember peoples names I will need some more time. More about the company I will write when my assignment will be defined for 100%.

Yesterday I was lucky to attend a Dutch film premiere of the movie Bolt. Even though it was a breakfast premier (read: all the adults sleeping) it was great. I saw some famous Dutch people and at the entrance I felt kind of good when I said "I'm from the Walt Disney studios".

So this was my first week in a snapshot.


Greetings from Amsterdam

Hello!

During my graduation internship at Walt Disney Home Entertainment I will try to work on this weblog and tell about how everything is going at my internship, my new room and the city -Amsterdam.

Well, today I moved from Breda to Amsterdan. What can I say, it is a big difference. I still can not believe I will be here for the coming 5 months. And sometimes I still think, what have I done?? I have turned my relaxed and easy student life in Breda in complete mess and definetaly something more difficult! But...sometimes we need a challange. And when I was walking through the busy streets of Amsterdam, I realised that this challange gives me a healthy rush and I can not wait to start on my assignment at Disney! I have no idea how it will be, will I like it or not, will I be able to get along with the people in the city, will I be able to wake up at 7 each morning, but I am sure, however it will be, I will learn a lot during these 5 months and that is what counts!
