And any advice for those will be be doing something this summer?

I am an intern. But I do everything and more than the normal job does. So I am expecting a full time job offer soon.

On my 3rd internship now summer after my freshmen year I worked in operations for Time Warner; last summer/this fall I interned for a large Residential Real Estate Firm, and now I'm in the middle of an internship for a boutique high-net worth wealth management firm.

If you can try to get internships in different fields like I did; college is the best time to find out what you like/don't like.

Yeah, getting internships is the best.

I hope my summer will be good. Did some Material Science research last summer at Princeton University. The topic I researched was boring - but the campus life and activities they had was great!!

I wish I was attending Princeton.

They didn't have a lot of parties in the summer since everyone left - but the one they had at an eating house was ok.

A lot of girls and tonnnnssssss of liquor from the keg!

But when they weren't any parties, the other students and I just played some soccer (during the World Cup '06) and watched a couples movies and went out to eat.

The town was small though - I swear that I never saw anyone having an argument for the 3 months I was there.

On this topic, I am still looking for an internship at a financial firm. Anyone that works at one, or has a good connection that would be kind enough to pass my resume along will gain my eternal thanks.
