I really should figure out what week it is

Hello friends!

This week at the aquarium has been pretty normal. Regular stuff going on at the touch tanks, etc. I'm excited for today because the education department gets an ice cream party!!! Apparently our reviews have gone way up in the guest survey. So that's good!

I had my midterm meeting with my supervisor to discuss my progress through the internship thus far. It's basically a chart that they fill out with all different categories and then the check a box marked outstanding, exceeds expectations, meets expectations, and need improvement. I got a mix of meets and exceeds expectations, with no boxes marked for needs improvement, plus one box for outstanding! I think it was for preparedness and organization... whatever that means!

My team has been really helpful in providing me with resources for my project. I have started it and done a little bit of research, but it really is time for me to buckle down and take care of business. That's what I'll be working on during all of my study time this week.
