Week 1: The First of Many (2/4/16)

Truthfully, I didn’t know what to expect from this internship class. I didn’t know what we were going to do, if I had friends in this course, or if I was even at the right room. I was just sitting in the hallway, 30 minutes early for class, hoping I would see someone I knew.

Turns out, I knew half the class, but that also means the other half of the class were strangers to me, except their occasional appearance on SB Connect.

Rose began leading the class by going over the basics of the class, such as rubrics, responsibilities, and a general overview of the schedule. The usual syllabus week procedure. What caught me off guard was the TED talk video about labels. The video resonated with me because people give other people labels everyday, including yourself. You may not be able to stop people from giving you labels, but you can choose how you get labeled. At the end of the video, Rose asked us to post a discussion board thread on three labels that either I or others have given me. I sat there thinking about all the good labels and bad labels that have been passed down and modified throughout my life and what I would write about. This exercise got me thinking about the labels I want to change and create, especially by the end of the internship program.

So this assignment helped me set a goal for myself. It got me thinking about what type of person I wanted to be. Rose asked us why we wanted to be a senior con before we left. My personal take away is professionalism and leadership but there is one more label I should achieve at the end of this internship. I don’t know what it is yet, but it will surely dawn on me as the weeks go by.

(Maybe it will be improving on writing journals.)

Quote of the week! Even though it’s already February
