1st day!!!!!!


Today: Today was my 1st day at the Yale Medical Library CHILI Internship. I had the opportunity to meet the staff and librarians during a special tour of the building with Mr. Greenberg ( pictured at left with the Healthflicks video coordinator Michelle Lewis ). I saw many art works, and exhibits of many ancient objects that were donated to Yale library. My favorite was the Cushing Center, where I got to see brains of people who died from cancerous tumors. Some of them are 75 years old. What amazed me the most is how well these brains are persevered.
What I learned: This is my 1st internship.Today I learned that i am growing up fast, and that life comes with many responsibilities. I also learned that life is precious and we have to try to live everyday to the fullest.
