Who knew?

Tomorrow marks my second Friday and the completion of my second week at my internship. I've grown leaps and bounds already. Here's what happens when you start your first 9-5:

1. You get painfully tired. So tired that sleeping from 7PM until 7AM won't remedy the problem.
2. You get over it and stop hitting the snooze button. It doesn't help anyway.
3. You are excited by simple things like having your own desk.
   
4. Your back starts to hurt after a couple days.
5. You create bizarre new chair exercises to combat pain and entertain yourself in a small area.
6. You find bizarre things on the internet you would have never seen before (like blogs of Evangelical homeschooling mothers who rant for paragraphs about the evils of public schools and capitalism. And the Aptera, a vehicle I will own one day. )
7. You learn about things you had no interest in but now feel smart knowing (like diesel engine and advancements in environmentally friendly vehicles.)
8. You wonder what exactly people do every day at their desks.
9. You lose the ability to communicate. This ability is regained after a solid five minutes of uninterrupted conversation (with another person. Talking to yourself doesn't count.)
10. You count the hours until bed time (and realize why your dad is in bed by 9 every night.)
11. You appreciate your parents' intolerance toward late hours and laziness.
12. You would rather have a meaningful task to complete than sit idly pretending to work or doing nothing. That was so college.
13. You don't know what to do with your free time.
14. You tell yourself you physically can't look at a computer screen another second but you turn on your laptop the second you get home.
