Best meeting ever!

So today was the meeting of the Scholarly Advisory Meeting. It's basically a "think-tank" of the foremost historians on African-American history and other prominent African-Americans. They discussed the direction of the museum and the effect the museum will have on people. Well, I must say that this was the best 6 hour meeting I have ever attended. I am in awe of the amazing people in this meeting and their talent, intelligence, accomplishments and experiences. In the room is a Pulitzer-prize winning author, a former U.S. solicitor general, a former Spelman College president, a founding member of Sweet Honey in the Rock and so much more. If their plans for this museum come to fruition, this will truly be an amazing, life-changing, game-changing museum. Most importantly, me, a lowly intern got to watch. I'm so grateful. The best part; I was introduced to many of them and conversed with them about what I'm doing and what I hope to do as a museum professional. It was most exhilarating! This just turned the bad day that I had yesterday into the best week ever! Now I just have to meet Michelle. Let's see what tomorrow holds!
