Other news, I've booked a flight for home! Leaving NYC on September 1st, with no plans of coming back to the east coast anytime soon. Feels a bit weird...
We had our last intern event today. It was an ice cream social where they invited four recent grads (who started last year) to talk about their experiences at Arup so far. One of them had worked as an intern before he joined. They had a lot of positive things to say about the company, which is to be expected. I wish they left more time for chatting after the event. Everyone just kind of left. They invited a good range of disciplines to talk about their experiences. I wish they had invited people who had worked longer at the company as well.
Anyway, there were a ton of toppings for the ice cream and they gave us all a lot of ice cream. I was stuffed. Half way into the talk, they wanted to move the ice cream upstairs because we all had enough and the ice cream was melting. When they asked if anyone wanted any more, I jumped up and grabbed the a bowl of M&Ms. No one else moved, which I thought was lame. Anyway, I shared with the people around me. Afterwards, there were still some bowls of M&Ms left so I refilled my bowl and headed back upstairs. I should have grabbed the bag of marshmellows that were sitting there and added that to the cookie drawer (my group has a cookie drawer). lol. Anyway, my group was very happy about the M&Ms. Too bad I couldn't save them ice cream. haha.
I think I will be one of the last interns to leave (if not the last). Some people are leaving at the end of this week. There won't be a end of summer presentation. Too bad... Anyway, three and a half more weeks to go. Too soon.
