It all started at Monday, and now i have been a intern in the United Chinese Association of Brooklyn for 3 days already. I kinda like that the place, peoples and works. mostly i do in that UCA is organized the files and planning for the outside activities that are coming soon, as long as the weather gets warm.
my mentor is a very nice students, she named Vincci and she is also from the lafeyette high school, the one on the 4th floor. The first day i went to the site, i was lost, the place was so hard for me to find, they having a huge sign on the second floor but a small door on the first floor, also there is no ad outside, therefore, just to find the place took up 30 mins. Finally i got there, there is only i guy in there and he was downstair checking out the mails, i got in and walked to the second floor, but there was no body there. then the guy downstair asked me :"may i help you." and i told him who i am and whats im coming here for. he probably knows me, cause last time i went on interview, he was talking on the phone with somebody, and he also a worker in the UCA, his name is Andy, the executive Director in that place. He is a very mild and gentle, also very friendly Director, he started conversation with me, we talked things about my interests, and i know he wanna know my interest because he wanna to have a good time in UCA, he doesnt want give me things that i dont like to do, and give me things i do that will helps me in the future.
Second day was very interesting, too. Because my mentor get out school at 12.15, so usually she got there in UCA at 1p.m. But Andy was there at 12 o'clock, and today we also talked like for a hour, we talked things like the politic and how we could do in UCA that could help the Asian-American's rights. afterward, My mentor vincci gave me some file to organize, things like to combain the duplicated address into one, and change the first name into Family. after i done with it, the times up, then i signed out and went home. At third day, things happened are similar with the second day, so here im not gonna talking about it here. except that andy ask me to join the Lion Dance Club, i'm really exciting about it ... .
Hopefully i could learn things about how to getting in right college and how to help my ethinically fellow, also i could also learn how to defend myslelf with the laws, last thing to say, i wanna be more involved in this society... thank you very much UCA. . . I enjoyed working there..
