Hi! My name is Simrat Tatla, but everyone just calls me Simrat or Sim, and I am a second year Commerce student interested in specializing in Human Resources and International Business.
During my first year here at Sauder, I was extremely disappointed that I wouldn’t be able to take a marketing course until my second year. However, now the time has finally come for me to let my creative juices flow!
About a year and a half ago, I worked as a Barista at Starbucks and one of my main responsibilities was to promote all the new drinks or pastries that Starbucks would come out with. Whenever a new promotion was about to come out, we would re-decorate the store with posters of the up-and-coming item. My favourite time was during the holidays when all the holiday drinks came out, all the cups changed and there were Christmas decorations all around the store!

At this moment, my favourite commercial on television is the new Blackberry Bold ad where 20 or so bike riders ride around the city at night on these neon-coloured bikes. I have to admit, I am an iPhone fanatic and I would never, ever trade in my iPhone for a Blackberry, but I just couldn’t keep my eyes off this commercial!
And now, something personal about myself….hmmm. I don’t know if this is personal or just kind of embarrasing, but I am a reality tv junkie. I just can’t get enough. One of my favourites, and pleace don’t hate me, is Keeping Up with the Kardashians. I don’t care what anyone says, it is addicting!!
