This summer, I applied for an internship at MSA (Mine Safety Appliances) in the Communications Department. It was more of a PR (public relations) internship, which I didn't know until I arrived for my interview, so I didn't walk away from it thinking I had it. Well, alas, last week, I get the phone call telling me that I was chosen for the internship!
This is a huge lifestyle change, though. I will be moving in with my aunt (who works for the company) since she lives closer, and only coming home on the weekends. She, also, does not have internet, so it will be very interesting how I occupy myself after work.
I move out tomorrow, and I haven't even begun to pack. I don't really know what I need, and I know I will forget a million things anyway.
I will make more money than I have anywhere else, this will look great on my resume, and many of their current employees were hired after their internships, which are great things, so I will have to live with the change. I just hope I am ready.
