Summer 2011 was awesome. So many things have happened. It was uplifting in that I learned a number of things, as well, as did some fun stuff. I traveled, I partied, I had a great time! Here’s the run down.
Work:
I had my internship at the United Nations. There are some departments, which are more competitive than others. I cannot really speak for every department, but practically speaking I assume departments that have more prestige (like working with the Judges) are more difficult to get.
As an intern, I was given several different responsibilities, some of them having nothing to do with each other. Being flexible and open to change was key in fitting well into this organization. While there was a wide range of tasks assigned, there were also some routine tasks to be completed every week. Regardless of how silly some work may seem (i.e: photocopy a book) do it quickly and do it correctly. The expectations were high, the workload immense, the time short and the experience remarkable. I am sad to leave but confident I have indeed learned a great deal. I've really enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere at the company and the wonderful people I've worked alongside. I hope there is a possibility of full-time employment 3-5 years from now.
More justice than injustice, more freed men than imprisoned, a higher number of feeding humans than starving, and more peaceful nations than war-torn.

The school day is rapidly approaching and it's back to homework and all that dumb shit again. This time is associated with extra anxiety. 
When summer begins, it seems like it will last forever. But you only have a few days left at this point, so take advantage.

I'll be cheering you on as you go!
