<p>There are a number of reasons why you probably don&#8217;t want to do an internship. These may include:</p>
<p>It doesn&#8217;t pay a lot of money.</p>
<p>It will be menial jobs.</p>
<p>You have enough work with school alone.</p>
<p>While these are all valid points, it is still in your best interest to get an internship. There are a number of places in your area that will want an intern, and there is neither a guarantee that it will be a long list of menial jobs, neither is it a guarantee that you will get what you wanted out of it. You will have to check out each specific internship before such a thing can be determined. There are a number of good reasons why you should take an internship though.</p>
<p>1. Internships often turn into jobs. <a href='http://www.southwesterninternship.com/Blogs.aspx'>Southwestern company</a> is famous for this. College students often   <a href='http://www.career.sunysb.edu/content/students/what-internship?'>intern</a>   with them and find themselves working full time for the company four years later. There are a number of other companies that will do that too.</p>
<p>2. Experience in the field of your interest. If there is a chance that you are going to get a job from them, you should choose internships that are in a field you want to go into. If you don&#8217;t end up getting the job you at least have some experience with the field now. When you apply to other companies in the field they will be more likely to pay you more because of that.</p>
<p>3. Some money is better than no money. While it might not be a lot of money, in college some money is usually better than no money.</p>
<p>4. Flexible Hours. When it comes to schedules, most internships are good at working around your schedule so that you can get the optimum amount of money and get your work done. Some internships like those at   <a href='http://www.southwesternsummer.com/'>Southwestern Company</a>  , or some 9-5 companies are only during the summer, which will not cut into your school times.</p>
<p>5. Build your network. If you don&#8217;t get a job directly from it often you will get a job indirectly from it. Maybe one of your internship&#8217;s customer&#8217;s hires you, or a friend of the owner or manager. There are a number of ways that having a bigger network can help you.</p>

<p>With a few exceptions, like the beautiful  <a href="http://www.gohawaii.com/">hawaiian islands</a> , summer is a pretty torturous time across the country. The Midwest and East coast suffer from high temperatures made worse from equally high humidity. Here on the West coast we, fortunately, do not have much humidity; however we suffer from extremely high temperatures. I live here in Phoenix where we do not just have 100 degrees hot, but frequently close to 120 degrees hot. Whatever side of the country you live on, as much of your summer as possible is spent indoors away from the sun. Meaning you do not want any more of the sun coming into your home than necessary.<br />
To keep the heat from the sun out and your air conditioning bill down, begin by looking at your  <a href="http://www.nextdayblinds.com/">window coverings</a> . There are several designs that look nice but do not do much to keep the heat; which is particularly important if you don&#8217;t have dual pane windows. As far as  <a href="http://www.rosenthalpartners.com/work/ndb/tv01.html">window designs</a> go, shades are your best bet. They keep the highest levels of UV rays out, which will help keep your electric bill down, and they come in a variety of styles and designs to fit any room decor. Shades are also good if you want to keep the light out because they are available in many different materials, both light and thick. There are many tips and ideas on blind  <a href="http://www.nextdayblindslocations.com/">company websites</a> .<br />
Summer is unbearable enough without having to suffer inside your home. Before this summer hits, do yourself and your wallet a favor and invest in some summer appropriate window coverings. Cut down on your air conditioning bill and at the same time  <a href="http://kidshealth.org/teen/school_jobs/school/summer_blahs.html">make the summer more enjoyable for everyone</a> . With so many styles out there, there is just no reason not to.</p>

<p>There are four distinct areas of a child&#8217;s life that are enhanced by <a href="http://childparenting.about.com/od/elementarymusic/Elementary_Music.htm">music education</a>.  Public schools and <a href="http://www.lts.org.uk">boarding schools in Northumberland</a> are seeing the value in this, how it affects one not only while they are in school, but will have effects for the rest of one&#8217;s life.  Reality is that many schools lack the funding to provide these classes, as well as other classes, and instead of being a wonderful reality, they are sometimes just an unattainable wish.  But not all administrators will allow that to happen, because the benefits, many based on scientific and sociological research.  The four categories researchers have outlined concerning the benefits are the &#8216;successes&#8217;, <a href="http://www.essortment.com/all/tipsforsuccess_rthm.htm">success in school</a>, society, developing intelligence, and in life in general are reasons for these programs to be protected.</p>
<p>When children succeed in school, they are more likely to go on to succeed in society.  The study of music, as well as art and dance, instills discipline, provides skills on the cognitive level as well as increases study habits in other subjects, basically enhances the entire curriculum of study.  Studies have also shown that those involved in such programs tend to work more effectively with others, finding solutions to challenges that don&#8217;t result to inappropriate or violent behavior. </p>
<p>In societies around the world, music plays an integral role.  Music is present in many ceremonial, social and religious celebrations.  Music can be extremely important to the economy of a society and well as shaping character and the abilities of individuals.  And for students that will move forward towards higher education, many colleges and universities look to the applications and notice whether a student has had education in the arts, stating that when one has it shows an interest in the world in which we live in.  Musical instruction has been shown to increase intelligence in that so many other areas of study are involved in playing an instrument and <a href="http://www.teachervision.fen.com/math/resource/10340.html">musical composition</a>.  And in life, as in school, music teaches discipline and the promotion of working with others, with cooperation and respect.  Music and the arts, are an integral part of the education of the youth of today, and one should do all they can to see that these programs remain in the school systems in Northumberland, and the schools throughout the world.</p>
