Starting to Feel Like a Lion


So it's Day 3 and I'm totally loving LMU and I already feel so integrated into the university and the department. Everyone is so friendly and willing to sit down and chat and learn all about me, where I'm from and what I'll be working on this summer. It really does feel like a family here and all of my worries have been alleviated. The support from my supervisor is amazing and I'm already starting to feel like a Lion. I've also made connections with current students and the current RD's. In fact I've even been invited to join the nightly hang-outs to watch television....gotta have my summer shows!

My day today was filled with meetings about training, databases, and drapes. In case you were wondering I did in fact say drapes like the ones you hang on your windows. It was great to be back in meeting again and I finally have tasks!!! I worked on food orders and researching vendors for training and have been assigned to work on updating an office manual for desk workers as well as helping a fabulous RA create a cool and informative video. I can't wait to build my technical skills particularly since she is a Film Major!

I do have to say that the highlight of my day was meeting the fourth and final intern who is working with Conference Services. She is so nice and we have a lot in common. To top the day off all four interns went out to dinner which was our first time hanging out as a group. I have a feeling that it's going to be a good summer :)
