Drew,

I think you made a good choice, and I will be following along hoping to learn all I can.

Best of luck with the competition.

Phil

Good luck!

Tizsa,

Congrats!!  I know you will do well.  With Ardell rooting for you as well as Drew coaching you, you cant help be awesome. :-)

Great choice, Drew.  We all look forward to Tisza's journey and learning from both of you!

Drew,

I finished my profile, went back, and there, you had already made your choice.  Tizsa was good, no Tizsa was great, a wonderful pick.

If you get a moment would you consider looking at my now finished profile?  My overall goal is to be working with a team using using both my writing and real estate skills.  Would your offices consider a part-time intern for some months to add to the mix at Zillow?  The arrangement would  benefit you folks and could be a wonderful step for my future in Public Relations/Writing/Real Estate!

Many Thanks      Eileen Forster

Eileen-

We might actually have something available that would fit you. Have you seen this job posting?

 Drew -

 Thank you, I am going for it.

Go Get'em Eileen......Let us know how it goes.

Hi All,

I think this is a first for me... I am neigh on speechless!  I am thrilled and honored to have been chosen and will endeavor to do my team proud.  Thank you to everyone who has been so welcoming and supportive.  Forgive me, I really want to do some basking in the warm glow of acceptance right now, however if I don't do some lead generating I shall be basking from beneath a plastic tarp pitched in a local park.

Again, thank you everyone for your friendship and support.  It is truly hard for me to believe that I have only been a part of the Active Rain community since Friday last. 

Oh, and lest I forget, I shall also be pulling for you Eileen.  Your experience and willingness to learn and grow will be an asset wherever you choose to apply it.  Keep me posted on how things turn out for you. 

Take care, help lots of people and have a WONDERFUL Day!

Tisza (who still can't believe her good fortune at being allowed to participate in such a valuable, meaningful and exciting experience and is now going to buy a lottery ticket to see if lightening will strike twice) Major-Posner

I can now go to Vegas with a big load off my mind :)

Uh oh... Good pick Drew! This should be exciting

Drew: Excellent choice! I've been watching Tisza since she got here. She has some real talent. Good luck to you both. This is going to be a helluva contest.

Yay Tiza Congratulations!!!

Good Luck Eileen!!!

Great choice Drew!!! 

Good choice.  She's totally up your alley.  I wish you luck Tisza!  Drew should be an excellent mentor.

Wow!  It is really coming together!  Can't wait to start the competition.  ARDELL,  have fun in Vegas, baby.  Remember 'what happens in Vegas....'; so take advantage of it.

Congratulations Tisza (can you tell us how to phonetically say your name - I need to have it clear on my mind) - I think this competition is going to be great and such a learning experience for not only all involved, but for this community as well.  So don't let me down guys, I'm learning from all of you!

Ines

Congrats Tisza....  Drew I think you made a great choice.  To say I am not jealous would be a lie.   But I've read Tisza's post and love how she writes and what she has to say... and geez she just got here.

Best of luck to you both in the competition.

Good luck to all the competitors.

Hi All,

Ines asked: Tisza (can you tell us how to phonetically say your name - I need to have it clear on my mind).  It is like Lisa with a "T".  I usually tell people that the "z" is silent and that is the only thing about me that is :-).

Hope that helps.  And for those in the know the name and the person are both Hungarian in origin.  I share my name with a river in Hungary which is named after ancestors of mine.  The funny thing is if you do a search on the name "Tisza Major" you get both the waterway and me.  Imagine my shock the first time I ever "Googled" myself and discovered that I was in danger of dying from pollution.  Not a pretty way to go.

Take care all, help lots of people and have a wonderful night

Tisza

Wow, gee what a surprise. Picking a published author, a professional writer, over everyone else who truly are newbies?  Picking someone who was coached by another coach to become an apprentice.  VERY apparent that the 'clique-y in-crowd' had lots of influence.  This is just getting ridiculous.

Congratulations Tisza! I am looking forward to reading your blog!

Congratulations Tisza! I am enjoying your blogs, and I hope you don't die of pollution very soon. If you eat a lot of bran and drink a lot of water, it may help with that. :-)
