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.

Thanksgiving Break is most likely everyone’s favorite break during the fall semester. You get to go home and reminisce with all your high school friends. That diet you’ve been on for the past month goes out the window, and you get to eat until you put yourself into a food coma. There’s no rush on homework and you can just lie in bed and Netflix to your heart’s content. To me that sounds like an ideally wonderful break, and totally stress-free.

Grey's Anatomy

Even Shonda Rhimes, winning creator and executive producer of the hit TV shows Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, Scandal, How to Get Away with Murder, and The Catch agrees that relationships with fictional characters are real. In her book, The Year of Yes she states, "I have spent more time with Meredith and Christina then many of my actual friends...When you watched TV, even spending a full hour with Christina once a week, you were likely spending more time with her then you spent with most people in your life. That relationship was real."

Especially after starting college and having the stress and anxiety of tests, assignments, and just figuring out my future, the gym at my school has definitely been a place of relief for me and I have numerous reasons of why everyone should push themselves to get to the gym when they can.
