waiting for a meeting
I haven't been around at. all. for the past few days. Wrapping up Practicum stuff and sickness have put me into apathetic ennui-land.
But I will say I have a Practicum site (YAY!) and it is awesome. I was actually offered two sites on the same day, but chose the one I was most excited about that I felt did the most good. (note for ffrmusicwench: [and others who may not know and just haven't asked]: a Practicum is basically beginning internship. I will be at a mental health site for 12 hours a week practicing being a counselor under the guidance of two supervisors. It is followed by 2 internships, hopefully at the same site).
Probably the nicest part of getting a Practicum (Aside from the obvious OH THANK FUCKING GOD) (and also that whole rejection thing), is how happy for me my fellow classmates were. I mean, they were so genuinely thrilled, it honestly surprised me. I know I underestimate my importance to others, but it's humbling to see that in action. I have made friends who care about me, who have been worried about me, and who are invested in my success. I am very lucky.
okay, off to blow my nose about a hundred times and try to participate in a meeting...
ETA: I forgot to mention I saw Paul on Saturday. It was fun. I enjoyed seeing Pegg and Frost onscreen. I have to admit I pretty much agree with most of the reviews for it, but I wasn't expecting more than I got, so...
