I was busy with an Internship at an Ad agency... Now it's over... It was fun... Picked up my fair share of dos and don't s... Couple of people said I had potential.. I don't know whether they were being polite... But I'm an optimist and a fighter... So I'll strive along the lines of their lines...

But I'm shelving my plans for a PG, and rolling up my sleeves... My right hand is twitching, I'm going to write my heart out... I'm going to give copywriting my all... Cannes awards, here I come...
