Final Countdown

Aug 01, 2014 14:34

T-minus 13 days until my final comp exam and I leave the great big moldy dysfunctional family that is my current university's education department. I swear, I want to go on a drinking, carousing, dancing, and Cosmo-reading bender when I am done, assuming I get rid of this bronchitis and am no longer on drugs. I am, quite literally, sick of this damned program. It is so hard to keep my snark in check.
"Reflect upon the process of this project, use research to back it up". I had to coach a colleague about to graduate from the same program I'm in, and was "coached" by someone who gave me a lesson I personally could have done without any help. Thanks.

Well, the research shows that coaching works best when it isn't forced, and professionals have choice in the matter. I found this current project vexing, pointless, and redundant. I did a coaching project last semester and somewhere in the 80 pages, I discussed how rewarding it was to be in a reciprocal relationship with other practitioners who actually volunteered to work with me and weren't in my program so I had something to tell them they didn't already know!!!! It has also distracted me from what I should have been doing, paying attention to the clinic I'm in and preparing for the comp exam. All this stupid project gave me was asthma attacks and bronchitis. I hate you and hope this building gets hit by a meteor and the department and all the people in it explodes after I get my diploma and 2 good letters of reference.

asthma sucks, grad school hell, grad school sucks
