Today was a long but productive day. It started at 7:30am to get fuel for everyone and lasted until we called it a night at 11:00pm. The mission, should we choose to accept, was to start from scratch with the marketing plan and work through brain storming and collaboration in order to provide a better product.
We worked for the better part of the morning on research and idea generation until it was time for lunch. In order to stay productive, we had pizza delivered and kept right on going.
After lunch we started putting the ideas down on paper. Through team work, serious carb loading, and each person focusing in their strengths, we were able come up with some great material. By 8pm it was completely written so it only required a few of us that didn’t have finals the following morning to do clean up and editing. We grabbed some much needed fuel in the form of Thai Food and rallied to the finish line.
I can’t leave out the fact that none of this would have been possible without Ms. Pham’s dedication and willingness to spend her ENTIRE Mother’s Day trapped in Glass Hall with all of us. Thank you!
This will definitely go down as one of those “remember back in college when…” stories of crazy memories that never fade. I learned more in one day about marketing then I could have ever imagined. I am proud of what we created and appreciate the efforts put in to pull this miracle off.

Loved your title, and yes, it was a crazy/great experience for this last week in the semester. Ms. Pham is awesome for being able to make it work with us. Also, thank you much for the bagels! That was a good call since we could munch on them throughout the day.
