SF ADDY Awards 2009

Thursday was the SF ADDY awards and me and a few classmates had the opportunity to help out with the event. My friends were assigned jobs that were a bit tedious and I had the wonderful task of taking everyone's photo. (It was a lot more work than it sounds... ok not really!) I had NO complaints because it was a great way to mingle amongst the ad folk and really get to talk about and see what I can expect after I graduate.

What I gathered, other than business cards, was that Ad people are very modest... hahaha.. just kidding! ;) But really, I did get a taste of what it may feel like to get noticed for your hard work. There were a lot of great entries and well deserved awards.

As I told most people, I was going to post some photos on my blog site. So, like I said, here they are:
