15 Things You Experienced As A Summer Intern
Young Invincibles

We're heading into August now, which marks the final stretch of summer vacation. Some of you may have studied abroad, some probably returned to another year at that boring summer job serving ice cream to vacationers, others may have completed an internship. If you did have an internship, you might have experienced the following 15 things. In fact, the chances are good you probably did.

1. It all started with an application.

2. Followed by celebration when you heard you got the job.

3. Then you were overcome with nerves.

You had no idea what you were getting yourself into.

4. But your fellow interns had no idea as well.

You and your co-workers probably became good friends, because you did everything together. Like...

5. Touring the office,

6. Getting your very own cubicle,

It'll be the first and last time you'll be excited to get a cubicle.

7. Taking your 15 minute breaks

8. And drinking lots of coffee.

9. Maybe you had a project to work on,

10. And you quickly realized how much you didn't know.

11. In all your attempts to be productive, you probably ended up breaking something.

12. You were constantly waiting,

Because your supervisor was often in meetings before she or he could come to your rescue.

13. True, there were some frustrating times.

14. But it was all worth it in the end.

15. Because now you're one step closer to adulting.

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"
