The school year is coming to an end and with that, so will my bus-driving-job. I had applied for a few internships earlier in the year but had not heard anything, so I went ahead and got with Sub Zero Ice Cream and Yogurt to secure some income during the summer. Out of a lack of a better option, I was planning to return to bus driving the following year. But Scott (Rhonda's brother who lives in our complex) said there was an opening for an internship where he worked at Wright Engineering. The pay would be less then driving bus, but in an effort to get something Engineering-esque on my resume I decided to apply. I got an email back and we set up a phone interview. A day or two later, I got an email from Intel about in internship I had applied for there a month or two earlier. This is what I had been hoping would happen; it was just the kind of internship I wanted. This internship is actually run through ASU and could count as some credit. I set up a phone interview with them too. I had both interviews on Friday about a half hour apart. They went well and I have in-person interviews with both next week! I am excited for it and hope they go well. I'll update you on the blog after the interviews and let you know what I'll be doing.
Rhonda and I talked about making a planter box to have a mini garden at out apartment. I finally got around to making one. I reused some wood that I had used to make my tall bed frame when I was living at the parents'. It took a few hours in the shop, but I got the wood all cut down and the box assembled. It didn't turn out quite as nice as I had hoped, but it is still pretty nice. Saturday night I went with Lindsey (my expert gardening advisor) and we got soil, plants, and seeds. Tonight I lined the box and put the soil in. I am excited for out little garden! I am even thinking about making a second box with the rest of the wood to have more room.
