My goals for the internship this year!
1. I would really like this internship to give me a better idea of what a career in science truly entails. I am still undecided on what I would like to pursue as a major in college, and I hope this internship will give an experience bringing me closer to this important decision.
2. I really just want to have fun. I love science class and would really like to have this opportunity to interact with real scientists and have fun exploring the subject I like so much.
Characteristics a good intern should have!
I'm not going to lie; I am very nervous for this internship. I can picture already the task I am assigned being too difficult, the topic way over my head, or me simply being confused. However, a good intern should be a good listener, try their best, and not be afraid to ask questions, and I believe if I simply listen to my instructor, I shouldn't have too much difficulty. As long as I try my best, I will feel accomplished and achieve at least a basic understanding of the concept. If I am not afraid to ask questions, I will be able to comprehend the task I am assigned and be able to get straight to work!
... no matter how many times I tell myself this, I am still nervous, but still excited for an exciting experience ahead of me :D
