First Day of My Internship

What happened today?????
I went to my Internship, Which is at Balboa Park in the Park & Recreation volunteer Department. I learned about what I am going to be doing and what projects I'm going to be doing. One mini project I did on the first day was researching our city councils districts and write down their names and what part of the city the protect or provide for. One project I'm going to be doing is writing a little section about volunteering in their monthly news letter. Another project I might be doing, but still don't know much about is, working in the Aquatics section maybe working on recruiting people to lifeguard or pool watchers. Getting more people too volunteer.
How did you get to internship????
My Dad drove me to my Internship. He was a little late, but when I finally got there I couldn't find my building so after walking around for 15 min I finally meet a lady who was kind enough to show me where too go. Even though she showed me the wrong place but it kind of helped because it was really close to it.
What did you do for lunch???
For lunch I picked it up downstairs and waited for my dad to pick me up.
How did you get home??
My Dad picked me up and then we went home.
How did everything go?
My first impression was, "oh no a office!" because I don't want to be sitting all day in front of a computer. But overall it went okay. I was kind of nervous at first and still am. But it was just barley my first day so I didn't do much. My mentor showed me around the office and she also showed me my little cubical. Then she introduced me too the people she works around. So I am hoping that my projects are exciting and my internship will be some where I want too go rather then some where I need to go.
