Last Week as an Intern
I find myself lost in a mix of speakers and dinners, left to write a final paper of the overall experience as the Convocation Intern. But how can I talk about an experience that has been so diverse and life changing. I've met so many people and learned so many lessons. I have been looking back at the calendar on my schools website and these blog posts as well as the journal I've been ordered to keep by the internship program. Broad and Crazy are the only two worlds that I can muster to describe this experience. Every week was filled with preparing for a special guest to come, not to mention, my other school work stacking on top of each other, hence the word CRAZY. I found myself running around and making sure students, whom I've decided are not reliable what so ever, show up to the convocation dinners. In terms of BROAD. Ive learned to contact future speakers and weasel my way around paying them a lot, I've been a security officer and the "mean lady at the convos." I, am the mean lady? Because I can't let you leave and ignore the fact that honor code says if you come, you must stay to receive credit. Forunetly, college students are not very smart which is almost ironic and they are not sneaky either. Back to broad, my experiences have lead me to learn a lot of very different things as mentioned previously. Thankfully and sadly, my work here is done and I will not be able to torment the student body until spring roles around again. Meeting people will be put on hold and I will be able to take a breath for only a moment because just as fast as this semester pasted by, the break will too and before I know it ill be back into the whirlwind of my senior year of college.
