Sooo... Another week down!! I love being done on Wednesdays! It makes my weeks go by so much faster. I really like all of my classes! I've been really thinking and weighing my options about becoming a child life specialist. At the height of my decision making, I got an email about a "child life career day" at Devos hospital in novemeber... so i signed up for that and again on monday night I won a prize in my class, and it was three children's books about going to the doctors. "Blue's Checkup" "The Berenstain Bears Go to the Doctors" and "Doctor Maisy." So, I'm really feeling like I need to give this more than just a passing thought. I know it may sound stupid that those may be "signs" but I've gotta follow something. But that's what I love about my major. There are so many opportunities and I don't have to change anything. No matter what, I still need to take the same classes and have the same specialization, it would just be a different career option. And it still leaves everything open for me to go into youth program development if I want. I'm really finally pleased with my choices and I really feel like I'm finally in the right place.
I really love my classes, for the most part they're all geared toward like a "helper/client" relationship which really isn't going to be what I do regardless of which career I decide. I'm not going to be working in an office with people court ordered to come to me which is mostly what people do. But I love that it is so open and I have so much freedom. I get 347 and 346 soo confused though because it's in the same room and all the same people as always... so i don't know which class is which.
But I have to say I am very happy with where I am and what I'm going to be doing.
Oh yea, and I love playing gold rush on AOL. =)

I can go the distance
I will find my way
If I can be strong
I know every mile
Will be worth my while
When I go the distance
I'll be right where I belong"
