Kyra Culver - A Day in the Life of a Stock Legal Intern

I start my day by waking up to my 7:30 a.m. alarm. I roll out of bed, wash my face, and brush my teeth. I throw on the outfit I laid out the night before. I always try to do this to avoid my room looking like a tornado came through it.  

I then walk downstairs and greet my mini goldendoodle, Cosmo, with lots of pets and kisses. I eat my breakfast, which lately has been pancakes and eggs. I grab my lunch I prepared the night before and make sure to throw a snack in my bag. I usually head out the door a little after 8 a.m.  

I get to the office around 8:45 a.m. which gives me enough time to make some coffee and get myself situated. The first thing I do when I open my laptop is check Slack and my email for any updates or tasks that need completion. My favorite tasks are anything involving social media posts or any type of creativity. The morning usually goes by fast and before I know it, it’s time for lunch.  

After lunch, I go down my list of projects and other tasks that need to be completed. Sometimes I will sit outside on our patio if I feel like I am hitting a wall or need some fresh air. At 4:00 p.m. I pack my bag up and head out for the day. I have a longer commute home due to traffic, so I like to put on some of my favorite artists or podcasts in an attempt to make it go by faster.  

I usually get home around 5:00 p.m. and as soon as I walk through the door, I give Cosmo a big hug and let him outside. I’ll throw the tennis ball to him a few times to get some of his energy out. After that, I go straight to the couch, lie down, and turn on a show, which lately has been Love Island, or I'll just scroll on Tik Tok. I’ll then go down to my basement where we have a small workout area and walk on the treadmill and sometimes do some light weights. When my mom gets home from work, we eat dinner and take Cosmo on a quick walk.

When we get back, I usually start making my lunch for the next day. I then head upstairs and  take a shower, brush my teeth, and pick my outfit out for the next day. I get in bed and start winding down. I usually just scroll on my phone or text my friends, which isn’t the best way to wind down considering both always have me laughing. I always double-check to make sure my alarm is set for the morning and try to put my phone down by 10:30 p.m.
