I'm Lovin' It.

NO, this is not to promote the unhealthy McDonald's. It's about my internship in the Rayburn House Office Building.

It's only my second day of work but I. Am. Loving. It. If only I could work the whole day, the whole week. For some strange reason, I am completely enjoying it. Strange because I never thought of working for a congressman. But here I am doing it! The other 2 interns with me (they started earlier) as well as the people there are great. The Staff Assistant's also very nice, she brightens up your day every time. It's also interesting to know a couple of things about her: she's an alumna of Capital Semester and she's the daughter of another Virginia congressman. Cool eh?

I wasn't actually expecting to be placed under such an internship (somehow I thought of it to be too political; well, duh...) but no regrets. Completely no regrets. It was just my second day today so probably I'm too quick to judge. Tomorrow, I should be able to tell better.

The things I did today are relatively more contributive than yesterday but I don't feel too good about them. Not because the work wasn't good or anything but because I didn't do them PERFECTLY. Writing failures again. Haha. Knowing how high the standards I set for myself are, this is going to be a challenge, especially that it seems I will be reading and writing a lot.

One (and probably the only) bad (which isn't really bad bad but bad, aww-sad-bad) thing about it though is: I don't get to work on Fridays. (But I love going to work =( ) There are 4 or 5 interns, I think, for Cong. Davis but all of us go at different times. Like in my case, I'd only be working Mon-Thu. One works Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays. The other one probably the whole week since he's been an intern for more than 4 months (first step towards becoming a politico?). The other 2, I'm not sure.

Well, well. One thing I realized yesterday was, (yes, after my first day), I wish I could do just the internship. :D

Anyway, I'm quite sure that the next 3 months would be even better.
