To start off my first week of course was the first day. The first day at my internship worried me, I didn't fall in love with the job right away. In fact after my first day I was sure that I wasn't going to enjoy my time there. This truly scared me as this was what I went into LINK believing I would be doing for the rest of my life, I didn't really have a back up plan. I went home that first day so scared and worried about what I would do, this possibility never crossed my mind. Terribly nervous I went back the next day with the materials I needed to begin my project, creating a new menu for cuckoos as well as a website. I was determined to find the good in the situation, and I did. Low and behold that next day was the start of a truly amazing internship at Chimera. My whole week was a whirlwind of fun., learning a new program, working with amazing people, and the beginnings of something I can truly be proud of. While that first day was terrifying, I realized that it was simply because I hadn't truly dove in yet, I just got my feet wet and the water felt cold. This first week has taught me to always go into things with an open mind about what could happen and don't make a decision about something the first time you experience it. I already know that these three weeks will be some of the best of my life.
