Finally, structure
Day 1 of internship done. Very boring, lots of training videos/powerpoints/lectures some of which had nothing to do with what I'll be doing, but because we're under the hospital umbrella we need to sit through them for legal reasons. Apparently we got the "cut down" verson, which was nice. Tomorrow I get to meet my Principal Investigator (PI) and the postdoc I'll be working with, which might be less boring but is sure to make me more nervous. I'm excited for 3pm on wednesday: doughnut break for all MMCRI employees.
There are boys in the program. I forgot about that. They're in a relatively even split as well. It reminded me of a conversation one morning fall semester in Hubbard:
Ashley and Drew "We just saw a male in Seelye!"
Kristi "Mail as is post or male as in boy?"
Ashley "Boy, but you know you're at Smith when I could just as easily have meant mail, and it's kind of sad..."
Me "I didn't think you'd be that excited over mail, but it did cross my mind, and it helps to clarify these things."
