P3- Extra Credit!
The third and fourth weeks in internship have been a lot different than the first two. I became more familiar with the places. I knew more people and gained more friends. I really knew what I should do. I don't have to ask my manger to get the instructions. Everyday I am getting more experiance. I began to know what's going on. The place become more interesting and I liked it. The first two weeks I was kind of lost. It was mad boring. I was walking in the hallway like a mad person trying to kill time. I tried to run away trying to chill out anywhere far from my manger eyes. But now, things are going better.
Four weeks into internship - P2
Ocean parkway is the name of neighborhood which Coney Island Hospital is located in. Every day I leave school at 11:45 am. I takes me like ten minutes to reach. I always arrive at 12:00 or 12:08 my maximum. I don't have a constant schedule but I have to make twelve hours a week. Regularly, I do three hours a day for four days. Any operator in the volunteer office can sign my time card.

Coney Island hospital is the full name of my internship site. My main job is filing. My site provide health care for sick people. There are three tasks I always do there. I check the documents of the patients if there's something wrong in it. I bring medicine from the pharmacy. I also pick up the phone while my mentor is on lunch. I have noticed a lot of skills in my mentor. She is calm, respectful, funny and know how to deal with troubles. She knows a lot about etiquette, as she always greets me and didn't make me feel I am a stranger from the first day. The most memorable moment that I can't forget when an Italian woman asked me for Russian translation. Also, I can't forget when I saw a man who look like those egyptian "mommies" walking in the hall. He looked as he was rolled in toilet paper. That two situations made me burst out laughing. I enjoy my internship because the people are friendly. The most challenging part of internship is that you make the people understand you one the phone while you get only little informarion. You don't know what to say but you have to make that call.

Part 2
So Three questions I have about internship is that:
1- What do you do once your mentor has a break and you don't know what to do?
2- How to always keep yourself busy and kill the time?
3- What do you do If you don't like somebody there?

My first Two Weeks (Feb. 22 - March
I am working in Coney Island Hospital. I working with people with many different races. That's what is called diversity. The environment I am working in really make you like to give. My colleagues are kind and friendly to me. My mentor is a great woman that speaks in a gentle way and know the etiquette well. My first thoughts When I arrived to my internship, I I felt I will be a doctor in a minute. I thought they would ask me to give shots to patients and this medical things. But That didn't happen because I am not eighteen yet. It really made me happy. My goals for internship is pretty obvious. I don't have any kind of wishes for gaining knowledge because since I am working, I will learn. I just need to improve in my practical life and get more in adults world.
