For my final day at externship, I video logged a reflection on the experience as a whole. Apologies for the break in the first one (my grandmother came in and we ended up talking about nurses and baking). I would like to thank some people who helped me grow and learn during my time at externship.
Firstly, there is Elliott. I talked to him for the first time on my second day when he asked me to shred paper and I feel that we have become very good friends. I like to think that I could be friends with anybody, but the fact of the matter is that I'm mostly friends with similar people in terms of diversity. Most of my friends are high school students and around my age. Elliott is much older than me (not trying to say he's old) and his life is very different from mine. He has taught me that some of the best friendships really do come from unexpected places. I created a mind map to chart out the pros and cons of working in the field of non-profit work. Working in a non-profit organization been my dream job for a long time now, so this internship has been a good experience for testing out my plans early on. This map helps me further understand if I am willing to pursue this career. Some parts of the map may be confusing, but I'll post an explanatory video in a few days.
