It’s been a busy week, but it’s been more memorable and enjoyable than I could have hoped. Now that I’ve completed much of the required training necessary before working at NIST, I was able to begin learning how to take measurements on the devices I will be working on over the summer.

They say you learn something new every day. I haven't proven them wrong yet.

What a wonderful week! I’m having the most amazing time here. Our intern cohort finally worked out our taxes, which was a lot of fun because everyone was on a zoom call together.

Big takeaways from the first week? I love DC summers, SPS is the best, and whoever lives in this building and can’t make popcorn without setting off the fire alarm needs to be evicted. Also I now know what reionization means if anyone was wondering.

What an amazing start to the summer! My name is Johnny, and I'm the American Institute of Physics FYI Science Policy News intern. My hometown of Cedar Park, TX is a little hotter and much dryer than this city. I've had a blast exploring Washington, DC so far.

This week, I was lost in the woods.
Starting a new internship in a new city can be daunting. You need to acclimate to your environment and job, all while trying to make the most of your time in a new place and make friends. It can be exhausting, but it is also exhilarating.
