Showing up to my internship today, I really didn't know what to expect. With every day, comes a new adventure. I have found that aspect of this internship enjoyable. I enjoy looking forward to what new adventure will be waiting for me to take on. Today's adventure came with some things that I wasn't sure if I was comfortable with.
Paul was very busy today with his tennis kids as well as figuring out logistics for the college fairs. Today, unlike every other day, I decided to take initiative. I went home over the weekend and was informed some truth. My mother said to me that if I want something done, you have to do it yourself. That's exactly what I did; Paul didn't have any work for me, so I set off on my own adventure asking around the office to see if anyone needed assistance. Finally, after what seemed like I asked everyone if they needed help and getting repeated nos, I got one yes.
Katie Storer is an admissions counselor who was swamped with work. I had previously known her working with her on Bison For a Night programs. She asked me to but business cards in admissions folders and neatly organize them. I was excited being the organized person I am, I knew the job would get done quickly as is, and I did finish it. After that, I got to sit in on an admissions meeting and hear what counselor would take which school to go to for the college fairs and events. Once the meeting was over, I pulled aside Katie and asked her if I could join. She said yes! I am so excited. Hopefully soon, I will be travelling to Uxbridge to observe and help to promote the hill and the bison pride here at Nichols. Things seem to be looking up for me and I am enjoying every second of it.
