To my fellow interns, congratulations. We have triumphed the 10 week internship, had our perspectives and outlooks matured, and emerged sharper and more well-rounded individuals. Also, we were the coolest CBRF group ever. I don’t necessarily know enough of the past kids to make such a judgement, but I do know that we were the […]
Week 9 – Creating the Manual
This week I was able to actually start putting the manual together (yea and the program is almost over!). I had stepped away from the manual for a moment to take care of a few other projects my supervisor wanted me to tackle. Now that I was able to begin designing the manual with pretty
