Week One of Summer

This past week I started both my internships, and things have been crazy. I work 10-6 for the first internship, and then three days out of the week I'm at the other internship 6-10 on weeknights or 10-3 on Saturdays. Luckily, for the second internship I'm usually done early, so it's not as bad.

The first internship I have is at Reservoir Media Management, an independent music publishing company. I'm the Marketing intern, so I do a lot of social media work to advertise our catalog and spread information and whatnot. Like, if there's a new song released, I'll write a little blurb about it, get it approved by my boss, and then publish it where it needs to go. This has been a light week in terms of there not being much news or anything getting released, so I think I had a good introduction to the company and what my job is.

The second internship I have is at Strange Sun Theater, a theater company in NYC. My former acting teacher works there, and that's how I heard about it and got the job. I'm their social media intern for the show they're currently rehearsing, so that means I take pictures and videos and post on Facebook, Twitter, etc. about it. It's fun to be involved in a show again, even though I'm not part of the cast. And it's also a little weird too, because I'm not involved in the cast. Nonetheless it's good experience.

I've been living in my new apartment for about two weeks or so now! It's definitely feeling more like home, and less like I'm just staying here temporarily. I still have moments where I don't think of this place as "home", but those moments are rarer now. It's feeling more lived in and homey.
