The internship has official begun! We started the internship with the true color exercise to understand what our personality color was and how we work with the colors of the other interns. No surprise to those who have taken the true color test before, I am a blue personality.
We were also welcomed to the office with staff breakfast where I was introduced to a new breakfast food I was crazy for missing out on - Chick Fil A, Chicken Mini's. I must say I was impressed, and have to admit I had been missing out.

Besides learning of a new breakfast must have, I also learned so much more to Alpha Delta Pi than I had previously known of as a member. First, was the inner workings of Executive Office. Each department came and talked with us about what they work on, who they work with, and what parts of chapter life correlate to them. I also learned of the three different Alpha Delta Pi "companies" within Alpha Delta Pi.
One of the other very exciting parts that wrapped up day one was for sure getting our shadow assignments for the internship. We will all be working on Convention, but have been given a specialty area to focus on. I will be working with Mrs Sally Thomas - Member Services Manager. Mrs. Thomas is a former member of Alpha Delta Pi Grand Council as well.
I started my shadowing on Tuesday with sitting in on a managers meeting with the managers of each department within ADPi. After shadowing and talking a lot about the Convention plans to come with Mrs. Thomas, we had an expansion workshop learning about the process of colonizing chapters, and continued working in the Foundations Office and training.
Overall it has been a buys two days, and the rest of the week is looking to be just as busy.
