You made it to New York City!

Summer internships in the Big Apple are really exciting, whether they're in finance, media, or even in the arts.

But as the initial excitement starts to wear off, you might find yourself feeling a bit overwhelmed.

Like, how are you supposed to work all day, feed yourself, do your laundry, and keep your apartment from turning into a complete disaster?

Business Insider is here to help. We've compiled a list of life hacks to get you through that summer internship.

Check them out:

Pool your Seamless vouchers.

If you're interning on Wall Street this summer, then you've almost definitely been alotted a certain amount of money for Seamless dinners. Lots of other companies do this too.

Make the most of those vouchers by pooling them with 3 or 4 colleagues and getting a family-size order that serves 6 or 8 people.



And if your company doesn't offer you Seamless...

Try ordering from Eat24. The company was recently bought by Yelp and has a lot of restaurants that you'd also find on Seamless. Plus, they have a ton of weekend coupons.



Don't even try to doing laundry yourself.

Send it out instead.

If you live in a building that doesn't have a washer and dryer in-house (which is pretty common in NYC), the amount of time, effort, and money you will spend trekking to and from the laundromat, sack in hand, is simply not worth it.

In many neighborhoods, it doesn't cost much more to pay your local laundromat to wash your clothes for you.

Or, try Fly Cleaners. They pick up your laundry, clean it, and drop it off for free if your order is over $15, and they have a handy app.
