安瑞希實習的心得 01: 我第一天在TCPA實習

今天是我在 TCPA 實習的第一天。中午我先跟何宗勳秘書長一起吃了午飯，然後談了一下實習的計畫。之後，我們和幾位同事一起去參觀 TCPA 的新辦公室。何宗勳秘書長生告訴我，這個新辦公室比現在的便宜，我也了解了他們搬家的理由 —— 節省開支是很重要的。

回來之後，他們邀請我參加了一場會議。因為今天是第一天，我有點緊張，中文表達也可能不太流暢。對會議的主題，我大致能理解，但有些內容可能看起來像是完全聽不懂；其實是我沒有完全聽懂其中的所有意思。

會議中，他們討論了新辦公室的事宜，也談到了動物保護的議題。我對動物保護這部分印象特別深刻，因為我家裡養了兩隻貓，是我最喜愛的朋友；而且我知道，在美國，動物保護的措施還不夠完善。

另外，何宗勳秘書長和幾位同事還送我一些小禮物，包括幾塊香味很好聞的肥皂，還有一些介紹他們工作與動物保護的書籍。我非常感謝這些禮物，也很珍惜他們的用心。

My first day of my internship with TCPA

Today was my first day of my internship here at TCPA. When I first arrived, I had lunch with Mr. He and then we discussed some plans and interest for the internship. After that Mr. He and his colleagues went to look at their new office. He told me that one of the reasons for finding a new office was because it would be cheaper than where they are currently located, I completely understand that as saving money is very important. 

When we returned, they invited me to sit in on a meeting they were having. As it was my first day, I was nervous because I wasn't sure if my Mandarin level would be sufficient. I was able to get the general ideas of what they were discussing in the meeting, even though I probably looked like I didn’t, though I wasn't able to understand a lot of the small details though. 

In the meeting they talked about the new office they just looked at as well as future plans and their work on animal protection. I had a deep connection with their stance and points on animal protection, as I have 2 cats at home and they are my best friends, as well as America has a big problem with protecting animals. 

Also Mr. He and his colleagues gave me some gifts, they included some very nice soaps and some books about animal protection and some of their work, I greatly appreciated their gifts.
