My internship and summer have drawn to a close... This was an absolutely amazing experience. It was good to get out of Maryland. I experienced the running of a business other than MD DNR, I networked with many amazing people, and I built up amazing experiences I taught various ages and various class lengths. I handled many animals and learned about even more. I went behind the scenes at many places and learned many facts. I taught many curriculums and various attitudes in children. I observed classes in my spare time, and diversified my knowledge and expereinces at every opportunity. I worked at the gift shop and expanded my customer service and retail skills. I learned to live on my own: do laundry, buy and cook food, budget, etc. I even learned to loosen up and just live a little. There are lots of good, safe and cheap ways to have fun! I made so many friends. Bird Show, Cat Show, Education, Softball, and many more friends that will last a lifetime... I miss it so much. If only I could afford to do another summer in Cincinnati..... I feel like this experience was the best thing i could have ever done with my summer and would not trade it for all the gold in the world.
Until Next Internship (summer '10?).
