As I sit in a cabin in the Catskills, on a family trip far from any sign of cell phone service, my last few days at Goddard and at SPS seem very far away, almost like a dream, but as soon as I look back at the pictures the whole experience rushes back to me.

It’s hard for me to believe as I start to put together a presentation of my work that the summer will soon draw to a close and with it my treasured days with IDL. I’m looking forward to sharing my work with Eta Carinae next week as well as hearing what everyone else has been doing.

Since returning to New Hampshire, I’ve had time to reflect on my experience this summer and have formed some final thoughts. First and foremost, D.C. is very hot and very humid. I had forgotten what it is like to go for a run and not feel like I am swimming!

It's been a crazy two weeks! I mean crazy in the best possible way. All of last week Hannah and I were preparing for our presentation. We practiced our presentation so much that it was second nature by the time the Symposium started on Friday. Everyone's presentations were wonderful! It was also a nice way for the other interns to end their summer in DC.

The last week came and went as quickly as the summer passed – we spent the majority of it preparing our final presentation and unfortunately, our goodbyes. I’m currently back at home in good old Hershey with a few weeks to relax and get ready for my last year of undergrad. As I look back through all the pictures, I keep thinking “Did this really happen?!” The past ten weeks feel like an awesome dream, and now it’s time to wake up and reflect on it.

This weekend included another trip up to Philadelphia to see some friends. On Saturday I was able to the Trainwreck movie. It was great and really funny! I highly recommend going to see it! Then on Sunday I was able to relax and go out for a great breakfast with Hendrik.

This is the last full week of our internships, excluding Brean and Shauna who have two weeks after the rest of us leave. It is bittersweet to be this close to the end of the program.

One of the wildest parts about being in DC is the perpetual feeling that the individuals in the room might be the smartest group of people that you've ever met. The past week made me feel this several times. Elias and I had two big meetings.
