The Intern Holiday Wish List, Part I

Last week, we asked you to divulge what topped your Intern Holiday Wish List, and you responded with a list of gadgets, accessories, and event tickets that would make anyone’s season brighter. In the spirit of sharing, and to jog your inspiration for that special student or intern in your life, here are a few items that caught our eye!

Yaeeun Chung from Virginia Tech asked for a Himalayan Salt Lamp. This sleek and chic lamp releases negative ions, counteracting the air impurities released from electronics.

Hailing from UC Berkeley, Samantha Chan is eyeing a Capresso Espresso and Cappuccino Machine for those midday pick-me-ups, a Longchamp Tote to trek to the office in style, and a Logitech Wireless Keyboard for her iPad.

Carolina from Old Dominion University unwinds after an intense work day with a full body massage.

A reader from CUNY City College named Danniella retires to a Williamsburg loft and wakes up to a wardrobe styled by Rachel Zoe. Sharing the wealth, she wishes $10,000 be donated to the Make-a-Wish Foundation.

What about you? Have you thought of the items that would enhance your internship or student experience? Let us know in the form below!
