Thoughts From The Mind Of A Summer Intern
FunnyorDie

All college students have to find an internship at some point in their college career. Its like do or die with the way our society is forming. If you don't have an internship, good luck finding a career after graduation. Once you find that golden opportunity, you become a big kid. You get the lovely pleasure of working a classic nine to five job. It's like a whole new world. Here are some thoughts that go through an interns head on the daily.

1. Ugh, it's 8 a.m. I have to be at work in an hour.

Yeah, we have classes at eight in the morning during the semester, but this is the freaking summer! I don't wanna be up right now, its too early. Maybe I can come in at like noon?

2. What the heck am I supposed to wear today?

"I already wore that...I don't want to be an outfit repeater. Oh gosh, I am going to be late if I don't pick within the next five minutes." We all have that moment. Just pick an outfit though. No one really cares.

3. Breakfast...It's still too early...

I sit down to eat breakfast every morning, and I think to myself, "Why??" It takes me a solid few hours to fully wake up. It is in your best interest to just smile and wave when you pass me.

4. Walking in to the office.

No, no, it is OK, no need to say hello to me. It's not like I have been working here all summer. You probably don't even know my name. It's fine. I'll be gone in a few months, and then in with the next interns.

5. Hell yeah! It's lunchtime!

What is my favorite part of the day you ask? Lunch of course! It is the half way point of the day which means in one hour I will only have four hours left, and then I can go home.

6. That 2 p.m. feeling...

When will this day end? I'm just gonna take a quick power nap...no one will notice! OMG, it's only two o'clock!? This is just crazy.

7. Only one more hour!!

I got this, only one hour left! This is so exciting. In exactly 60 minutes, I can clock out, and I am free! FREE!!

8. I'm off! Totally done for the day!

Ahhhhh yes! I am off for the day! Thank the lord. Wow, what a long day. I am so happy to be off. Time to go home!

9. Ah finally home!

My bed was calling my name all day. This bed definitely was not as comfortable this morning. I never want to leave this bed. Time to relax!

10. I don't want to cook, I just want to sleep.

I'm really hungry, but leaving my bed doesn't seem like a good possibility. I think I'll just stay here. Yeah, breakfast will come soon enough. Or maybe I'll just have cereal for dinner?

11. Gotta do it all again tomorrow.

Well today was a good day, but I have to do it again tomorrow? Why me?? Can I please just have a normal summer? Looking on the bright side, at least I will have a kick-ass resume.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
