There is one week left in my internship. One week before I leave Louisville. One week until I’m back at home. I am definitely wrapping up the summer on a high note, though. This week has been an absolute whirlwind of activity – and I have enjoyed every minute of it.
It was an early Monday evening, and I was out running by the river. I’ve made it a point to run at least three times a week this summer, and I run outside whenever I can (weather permitting). I was almost exactly at the two mile mark when I passed a bird sitting on top of a lightpost. I didn’t think anything of it – I must have passed dozens of birds that day already. I continued jogging down the sidewalk, when I was suddenly struck in the back of the head. The bird was clinging to my hair and was attacking me! I managed to brush it off and escape. After getting a safe distance away, I turned around to see it sitting on the same lightpost as before, almost as if it were daring me to come back (spoiler alert: I did not). A few nearby spectators all immediately changed their paths, although I am not sure if they were avoiding me or the bird.
And in the blink of an eye, another week has gone by. I have already been in Louisville for three weeks – 25% of my internship is done. Three weeks don’t seem like much, but I definitely feel that I’ve accomplished a lot during my short time here.
