It's my last week of the internship. I can't believe the end is near. I'm looking forward to starting Peer Advising and orientation. One good thing is that I will be ready for long hours at school after this summer. My last day is on Thursday, August 16. I do have to say that I'm bummed that I won't get to finish this project that I'm working on. It's a sell-side deal and I'll be uploading files to the data room. It's funny how I'm on the other side of the team now. In the end, I prefer the buy-side. But it's still cool to see how management presentations and data rooms get created. I wonder what I will do with all of my free time now...CLEAN. I'm never home, yet my apartment somehow turns into a disaster by the time the week ends. I will also catch up on sleep and see friends. The other interns are ready for this to end too. It makes you question why people take the job though when they're so desperately waiting until our last day. As a F/T employee, there is no end date until you quit.
In any case, my mood has improved a lot. I'm working less hours and actually got out early on Friday around ~9pm. I also didn't have to work super late this weekend. I'm glad the work load has gotten lighter. It's been a tough summer.
I start PA training on Friday and go through the weekend. Then orientation begins Monday. It's going to be great to re-live orientation. I remember how I felt last year when I started school. I was so nervous! I hope that I can be helpful for these 1st years. My second year is going to be GREAT. I'm really going to enjoy every moment of it. After orientation, I'm taking a block week class on Personal Leadership. It has incredible reviews, although I'm not really sure what the class is about. I think it'll be good for me. I did read in the syllabus that there is a lot of self reflection and learning about how to manage stress in the workplace, which I need.
Anyways, 4 days and counting!
