			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I started a new internship today, and my first day went really well.  There were a few things I really liked about it, so I thought I might list them.</p>
<p>1. It&#8217;s in Santa Monica.  Santa Monica is simply a really nice place to be.  You&#8217;ve got the ocean air, there&#8217;s actually parking structures, and it&#8217;s not as crowded as L.A.  Plus getting into L.A. can be kind of a pain, not that Santa Monica doesn&#8217;t have it&#8217;s share of traffic, but it avoids the whole central L.A. thing.  Santa Monica just feels better.</p>
<p>2. Lunch.  They pay for lunch, and they do it from nice places that are also healthy.  Also, everyone in the company eats lunch together, which makes for fun discussion, an easy way to get to know everyone, and an oppurtunity to learn from everyone.<a rel="external nofollow" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/14239765@N00/243999549"><img class="alignright" style="border: 0pt none; margin-left: 8px; margin-right: 8px;" src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/93/243999549_f396d0e8e2_m.jpg" border="0" alt="uncut" hspace="8" width="240" height="157" align="left" /></a></p>
<p>3. They keep a copy of the trades in the bathroom.  This one will sound really weird.  I&#8217;ll admit that I like to read on the toilet, and the fact that they keep copies in there makes me feel that that&#8217;s not a completely strange thing to do.  I like reading the trades, but usually feel like I have to be doing something more productive for the company while I&#8217;m at my desk.  This gives me a good oppurtunity to skim through.</p>
<p>4. Friendly co-workers.  Everyone at the compnay seems to be really friendly and laid back.  Additionally, their younger than most people in the film industry, which makes it a bit easier to relate.</p>
<p>5. Perks.  I had to copy some DVDs today, and not only did they suggest making some for myself, they almost made it seem like it wouldn&#8217;t be right if I didn&#8217;t.</p>
