Reflection: This week was a lot more hectic than I had imagined. I figured that after the work period, there would be no new data for me to enter, so I wouldn't have a lot to do. I was wrong. Because all of the categories of data are refreshed, that means that for every survey entered, I had to report each individual piece of it. Otherwise, I wouldn't have any work to do and Sarah wasn't having that. She kept me busy, but I'm glad she did. It made the time go by very fast and before I knew it, this week was over. I was very stressed throughout it, making sure I did everything right and on time. It was a good learning experience. It taught me how to handle a large workload under a certain time.

The internship is meeting my expectations because of the amount of work given. This past couple of weeks have been quite a bit of work in terms of busywork. There's always something I could be working on and that's what I expected. Sometimes I didn't wish it were so but that's just the way it is. I don't have that much control in it because we constantly have surveys and data points that need to be plugged in and arranged. It makes the internship go by pretty quick though.
