Give it some time man. If you show competence and willingness to work, you'll get pulled into more projects after a bit of time. Soon, you'll be in a position where things will need to be put onto the back burner.
I had seven engineering internships, and the lack of work as you're just starting out is normal. I've had two real engineering jobs; even coming in with a high-level degree, there's still a slow start until you get integrated into the system. My manager at my current job is not very proactive, so I spent a lot of my first months browsing the company Web site, directories, and reading stuff (journals and whatnot). At some point, I flat out asked for more work.
Now, I have more than I can handle. It's far better than too little.
Good for you.
Nearing the 17th year I said f it, quit & started my own business.
It failed.
