My Internship Experience

What I hope to learn and gain from the internship experience is the responsibility that I’ll need when I end up in the “adult” world. I am motivated at times and I am responsible, but only to a certain extent. I am used to high school expectations and high school work and I want to have a taste of what there is in the future. I hope to discover that the “adult” world is more then just busy work and making money. I don’t want to grow up focusing on a paycheck, but doing my work to benefit others.

What I hope to discover about myself is that I can do anything that they can throw at me. I want to be able to realize the importance of a future career and how I have to commit myself to what I do if I want to become a success. I want to learn what I am capable of and how far I can be pushed and still continue on. I already know who I am and who I want to be, but I want to discover all the potential I have if given the chance.

The goals I have for the internship experience is that I want to have a good project that I can contribute to the business. I want to be able to come up with a plan thats original and beneficial and something I can actually come through with in the end. Another goal was to find my own internship that I was able to actually accomplish this afternoon! I am happy to say that I am now officially going to intern at the San Diego's Dance Theater in NTC. Another goal is just to make the best of this experience and soak up every minute of it. I just wanted an opportunity that I wouldn't be able to get in the future so that I would at least have the chance of checking it out.
