My first two weeks Part 1
On February 22, 2010, I was so excited to arrive to my internship at New Youth Connection.
My internship is located by 34 St. in Manhattan (Penn Station). I arrived at 1 pm, I saw my mentor and greet her saying "good afternoon" and a firm handshake. I saw the office really quiet, heard people typing in the computer an I saw everyone doing their task. My mentor gave me a task right away. My first task was to read the rules of my site (I spent an hour and a half reading all the rules and policy). After that, she assign me my own computer, in which I'll be working most of the time. She told me about my site and explain to me the things that I'll be doing. My second task was to start my brainstorm to get some ideas. I completed all my tasks successfully and by 5 pm. I left. I really liked my internship site because I felt comfortable and my mentor was really nice.
My goals for my internship are:
To improve my writing skills
Gain valuable skills
Be able to write better essays
To get my articles and stories publish
To meet other people and learn from them
To gain skills that will help me for my SAT and English regents
To have a great first job experience
For the last three weeks I have been writing articles, personal stories, and notes from interviews. I also interviewed different people. And I have work independently and with my co-workers really well.
My challenge have been to come up with ideas for my stories, for example to know what to write about.
