First Day O' Internship

          The first day of internship was an interesting one indeed.  Nothing interesting really happened because most of the people in the office that I am going to be working with were out today, and my mentor and main supervisor didn't have anything for me or my colleague to work on.  

          It all started when we arrived at the trolley station after waiting forever for public transportation to bring us there. we walked down to the building and walked in, then called our mentor to come down and get us (as instructed by an email that he sent us).  It turns out that the building that has huge lettering on the side of it that says "Driver Alliant Insurance" wasn't

 our building, even though that was the company we were going to be interning at.  So, we had to walk all the way back and past the trolley station to get to the new building.  When we walked in, it was a huge building, big and open with tons of windows and an organic foods/sandwiches restaurant in it on the first floor.  When our mentor met us downstairs he brought us up to the floor we were going to be working on and gave us a general explanation of what they had so far for us, which wasn't much, then showed us around the floor a little.  After that, our supervisor talked to us a little about what we want to do there, then we left.  After we left, we went and ate at a Submarina by the trolley station, and then went to wait for the trolley.  While waiting, we were met by an interesting character telling us that he was a monk, and was trying to give us a book on zen and chakra, for any donations we might be able to give (he said that he wasn't trying to sell anything, but when we didn't have any donations he snatched the book away and gave us business cards).  After taking the trolley back to the Old Town station, I went to go take a bus home, and while I was waiting, I noticed an interesting group of people.  They were tourists from Germany, and it was fascinating trying to piece together what they were talking about, especially when they brought out beef jerky (which none of them have ever had before).  Then I got home, went to Souplantation, and sat down to write this blog.  I am now ending this blog, and will go on with my life until thursday, when my next blog will be due.  Good Night.
