Blog Post #5
I am grateful for the opportunity I was given through my internship. Pertaining to the class, I am grateful to have learned how to create a resume, sample job application, cover letter, etc. Pertaining to my internship, I am grateful for the wonderful experience I had working with professionals in the medical field. I have gained a wealth of knowledge from my internship that has helped me in my decision for my future career path after college to become a doctor. I learned that I am a very ambitious person and I love helping people and enriching the lives of others. I also learned that equality is one of my strongest morals. Reflecting on my discoveries did not really make an impact in how I saw myself and what I learned about myself. I have reflected on such things in the past, so nothing new was really brought to light (except that I may be autistic). Through my internship, I definitely improved on effective communication skills. I had to constantly update my supervisor on schedule changes. My diligence also improved; sometimes the work was boring, but I pushed through it. Not many people get this opportunity, and so I am very grateful.

Its good to be able to see how the opportunity is valuable and exciting even though the work may be boring at times.
ReplyDeleteI agree with what you've said 100%, Melissa. Your'e a very respectful and bubbly person which makes you great with working with other people. You also are one of the most motivated people I know, which will get you far with your goals of studying neuroscience! Great job chica.
ReplyDeleteI agree with the idea that the reflections didnt teach me much about myself, although the waybooks did shed light on some of the values that we tend to overlook or neglect.
