I realize that the last couple of posts about starting a new internship contained a lot of different information that might be overwhelming to cover when you're already busy with school and about to add a new internship to the chaos.  To make your life a little bit easier, I'm going to compile a quick and easy list to guide you through your first day.  Print it out, follow it, and you should start out on an excellent foot.
