Don’t be alarmed. This should only be temporary and is simply the result of my present circumstances as an intern for General Electric in Bangalore, India. At least the worst is over—last week, I kept the headphones on at work, listening to an MP3 of “Denewala,” a hit from the year-old movie Hera Pheri.

But the one piece of advice everyone seems to agree upon is that the Holy Grail of internships is one that gives an intern exposure to a career that he or she could really love. While this ideal may be the mantra of the Office of Career Services, it is certainly hard to come by. Have any of these advisors actually experienced an internship? Have they ever felt the eternal tick of seconds that make the hours between 2 and 3 p.m. seem like ten lifetimes? Have they ever made...
