along awaited journey almost coming to an end

Some of the first skills that I am anticipating to use are my business communication skills and professional skills. Because the first thing I’m going to do is come into contact with my new manager on my meet and great and I will have to exude everything I have learned in the past six months.
What are the possibilities of me growing in this company and making a career out of the position I will possibly be placed in. The kind of office environment that I would enjoy working in would be a semi fast paced, but at the same time laid back and not extremely stuffy environment. I really am hoping for an environment that my characteristics and the characteristics of the company they place me in mesh well.
The type of manager I believe I will work well under would have to be someone who is efficient and well-rounded and able to work with all types of personalities, but be able to deliver their requirements and expectations in a manner I will be able to understand and won’t have to continuously come to them asking for help.
Soft skills I hope to polish at my internship would be my facial expressions learning to smile more and become more inviting and personable as well as hard skills I hope to embrace the knowledge and culture of the tech community and learn as much as I possibly can from this experience.
The biggest anxiety I have about my internship is being able to get transportation there and it not being a big hassle to get there on time and not have to wake up extra early to get there.
I plan to stand out at internship by bringing my personality and flare as well as the skills I have picked up at year up, I feel like that’s going to help me along the way as well as becoming indispensable so the will feel the will need me on their team.
First I’m hoping to get hired on and if that doesn’t work out for me, I will be going back to school to pursue my nursing career. I will be leaving here with a wonderful resume and a great recommendation that can hopefully open new doors for me, and give me a nice platform to work from were ever I might end up.

Diary entry 3

Blog entry #3
It’s New Year’s Eve I’m getting ready to go out to a party and dance the year away with my friends. Now I’m taking this time to reflect on my time here at Year Up, and what I have accomplished as a person. Even though it wasn’t a new year I really have made some dramatic changes and transformations in my life. When I first started this program I didn’t realize how closed minded I really was. Now in the short time I’ve been with this group I have learned so much about myself and what really matters in the real world . Before I got to Year Up, my idea of the real world was so skewed, i didn’t have a clue and now with this new year approaching I can’t wait for what is on the other side for me and my fellow colleagues . so long for now I’ll talk to you next year.
