| | | Coconut is finishing up her papers, readying to do exams, and aiming to fly back to HK in 12 days, sophomore year done-done. Yeah, time flies and all that.
She shall take up salaried internship post starting June 1st over remaining 2-months of summer, doing creative and hanging out w/ other interns who are all older than her and already done with junior year.
The global entertainment company gave her, and only her, two positions to choose from, one creative and another management, even though she, as a sophomore, is not even supposed to apply for the internships.
The management internship was created for her, and wasn’t even supposed to exist. The international division wasn’t even looking for bothersome and troublesome interns. The HR department told the coconut that the situation was ‘unusual’.
The nut already arranged for own lodging situation at nearby graduate student dorm of local college within walking distance of her work site, and in neighborhood populated by all conveniences, book stores, and cafes, and reckons she shall have time to continue working on some additional project. The nut did not want to tag to business meetings and such, and wanted to exercise creativity.
Many of her friends in STEM shall be interning in the same city for financial companies doing coding and such, and get together are planned.
Am somewhat floored, as my summer work at her age was something about obscured electrical labs in basement if I even remember correctly. Whatever it was I was turned off on electricity.
I reminded the nut to save 10% of income by buying gold, and noted that in her case at this juncture paper gold shall suffice.Am picking up the tab on her lodging :0) |
