First Day

When I woke up that morning I felt sick. Eating made me feel worse so I went to work on an empty stomach. To increase the awesomeness of the beginning of my first day, San Francisco decided to great me with rain. 
Luckily that is the end of the bad happenings for my day. 
When I arrived I was introduced to everyone at Kendall Wilkinson Design and got started on filling out paperwork. The Ladies at KWD are so nice and I look forward to getting to know them better.
On Mondays there is a staff meeting so I got to hear about what the firm is doing and see how they function. I also got to meet Kendall. Cool side note.... we have the same initials :)  .
I got to go to the San Francisco Design Center with the other intern Jamie. Such a cool place. I didn't know SF had a design center like New York does. As crazy as it is driving over there and finding parking (parking is insane here) I enjoy picking up samples, dropping others off and doing errands. I am able to learn more about the layout of the city and also more about vendors and such.
I learned today that another job that the interns do at KWD is the mail. We open it and get it to the right person.
We (Jamie and I) were in the office until about 7 and the designers were there even later. June is going to be a busy month! All in all, it was a great first day.

*side note, wearing heels was a bad idea. my feet hurt quite a lot.
