It is incredibly hard to believe that this week was the half way point of the internship. I have learned so much and have done so many things, but I still feel like I just got here. There is just so much to do here! This week was full of fun things to do, which kept me very busy all week!

Tour trough The Capitol, a visit to the National Museum of the American Indian, and roller skating. An amazing way to conclude the first half of the summer.

This week, we finished installing our physical exhibit, Why the History of Physics Matters, in the Neils Bohr Library & Archives! This was incredibly exciting because we got to see all our efforts over the past five weeks finally come together into a final product.

After dinner at the Hamilton to celebrate my 23rd birthday, we decided (on a late-night whim, of course) to see a midnight showing of The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Seeing Rocky Horror in a theater is quite an experience.

A major aspect of doing research, and any professional experience, is meeting and interacting with people who have the same interests as you. As an undergrad, I have heard “networking is important” spiel time and time again. It is outstanding how true it is though.
