- the Wizard, in "Wonderful" from Wicked
A few weeks ago, I had an interview for an internship at the National Museum of American History, which is part of the Smithsonian. It was the most fun I've ever had at an interview, and I really liked both of the people who interviewed me. Apparently, they liked me too, because they offered me the position today. YAY! I'll be working in a collections management kind of position in the Patent Medicine collection in the division of Medicine, Science and Technology. (According to a classmate who works there now, it's Medicine and Science instead of Science and Medicine because they didn't want to be the division of S&M)
So that's good. Huge weight off my shoulders. And as much fun as it would have been to work in CT and stay with Kate, this is better, I think. I should still be able to go home and visit people, and you can all come and visit me in DC.
Now I just have to survive the next couple of weeks (tomorrow is my last day of classes- presentations in Admin and Museum Anth, and the paper for Admin is due tomorrow. Archaeology and Museum Anth papers are due next week).
