My Internship Experience @ Colomono Studio

Hello readers! I'm currently having my last weekend of my mid sem break right now, so today I'll be sharing about my internship experience at Colomono Penang that I was supposed to blog about it waaaaaay earlier as I finished it on 1st of April, somehow it was postponed for N times due to the workloads and it's rather difficult comparing to food post because I had no idea how to start, like there are so many stuff to talk about, so many fun happenings in 3 months! Tbh I've never thought I could really enjoy working this much that I actually can't wait to go to work every day! Continue your read and you'll know why :)
A humble looking exterior at first sight and my first thought was "o..k....", tbh I was very envious of my friends who get to go KL for their internship while there were very few Broadcasting students who stayed in Penang. But, of course after working for three months, I couldn't be more glad to intern here.

So I'm gonna first introduce what excites me the most when I first started to work here.
Dolly! A golden retriever that doesn't retrieve gold lol
Cassie, a very fierce dog at first that finally allowed me to touch her after a couple of weeks! So basically the first thing I do when I stepped foot in the studio is to rush to the kitchen, just to see them waving their tails at me :3 I'm so sorry to my colleagues back then because what excites me happened to be the two dogs behind the studio instead of you guys haha, we weren't as close as we are now teehee.

My job during my internship was basically edit long version wedding and come out with a corporate video with my two other intern friends. I've edited two long version weddings, one Chinese and one Hindu. Somehow we always work beyond the job scope which was kinda fun, such as painting the office walls, feeding the dogs, do some light housekeeping, shopped for groceries for the company, ok I kinda miss that life right now.
We shopped for our company steamboat and that's when I found out there were some really funny guys at work. On the steamboat day itself, we did lots of preparation work like cleaning the ingredients while the guys prepared the gas, chairs outside. The bottom right photo was taken when the colleagues were shooting for a video competition which they got the 3rd prize! After the steamboat session, we went for a movie night watching "Her".

Remember when I said the colleagues won the 3rd prize in a video competition? It turned out that everyone in the Colomono family was treated at House of Steamboat! Throughout my internship period I already had like three or four times of steamboat, so my friends at college actually said I gained weight after 3 months. 

Also, not to forget all the treats from bosses and colleagues! The first row was where we had our lunch at Morganfield's. Next, we had yee sang in the studio and celebrated one of the bosses' birthday. Moving on to the drinks from Tong Pak Fu after some light housekeeping. Last but not least, the Tau Fu Fa which boss always buys for us on a regular basis, but that's not all! There were also spring rolls, subway cookies, bubur chacha, herbal tea, ice cream, appom and lots more! Also, for our farewell lunch, boss treated us lunch at KOI Japanese Restaurant which I blogged about it HERE. Well that explained how I gained weight. Fat but happy tummy back then :) 
  
A huge part of my internship was made up of food, food, more food with the combination of fun and laughters. Besides, I'm really thankful for all the teachings and guidance from the Colomonians, especially for the corporate video, it wouldn't be possible without all the helping hands. Whatever problems or questions we faced throughout the internship period, all of you managed to help us out even tho you had some other tasks going on, we really couldn't thank you more :)

Finally, all the interns were presented a clapper board with our own names on it! Was happy and down at the same time when I held it in my hands as it indicates that my internship was coming to an end.
