INTERNeX Canada: Flora says what’s up

Hey everyone, my name is Flora and I’m so excited to finally begin my PR internship here at INTERNeX.  I was born in Korea but moved to Vancouver when I was only seven years old. Since then, so much has changed and I’ve really become attached to the city. I have visited so many wonderful places in the world over the last few years but I always come back home to realize just how special and beautiful Vancouver really is. Sometimes, I do take it for granted.

I’m majoring in Communications at Simon Fraser University hoping to achieve a career in Public Relations and Human Resources. At the moment, I’m taking a small break from all the chaotic life of being a student.

Besides studying and writing term papers, I love meeting new people and traveling to different places… or even to places I’ve already been before because I believe that you can make new memories each time you’re there.

On a lazy day, you can definitely catch me watching movies from my computer, hanging out with friends, or shopping (probably shopping)! The most time I’ve spent at a mall was around 8 hours. I know – it amazes me too.

Some of you may be new to INTERNeX like me and for some it’s just another day in Vancouver, but I hope that this journey will be exciting filled new memories and lots of good times for everyone. I’m so looking forward to getting to know all of you so please leave a comment or chat with me at the upcoming events!

Cheers,

Flora

INTERNeX Canada: What to do on the Weekend?

January isn’t exactly the most exciting month. We’re all tired from the Christmas festivities and broke from it.  We’ve come to the rescue on how to beat the January blues. And, these activities won’t break the bank!

Project Barca

Let’s do something different this weekend by watching a dance performance with the INTERNeX crew. I think its safe to say that most of us are trying to discover ourselves and find adventures at our age. With the theme “Going ‘West’ to find the ‘East’/ Going ‘East’ to find the ‘West’, Project Barca talks about the idea of self-discovery through dancing.

  • When? Sunday, January 12th @ 8PM
  • Where? Fei & Milton Wong Experimental Theatre, Goldcorp Centre for the Arts (149 West Hastings Street)

Snowshoeing

Don’t know how to ski or snowboard, but would like to hit up the slopes? Snowshoeing is a great way to enjoy the beautiful scenery that Vancouver has to offer and it is a great workout. Plus, its easy, if you know how to walk, you know how to snowshoe. It isn’t too pricey either. It costs $27 for rentals and pass at Seymour and $26 at Cypress.

The weather is beautiful this weekend, so get out there!

Vancouver Comic Con

Do you love to geek out with the Avengers or the Justice league? Then, Vancouver’s very own Comic Con is perfect for you. If you bring a new or gently used graphic novel, then admission is FREE and it will be donated to various Vancouver schools. There will be prizes and special guests including Shaun Knowler, the artist and writer of (one of my favourite comics) Transformers.

  • When? Sunday, January 13th @11am to 5pm
  • Where? Heritage Hall, 3102 Main Street Vancouver

Happy weekend!

Cheers,

Queenie
