I feel like my ability to have insight has grown exponentially in the past week or two. How crazy. I feel older more mature, and developing into my professional self.
Work: I took on a new position at Hillside working only a couple hrs a week in conjunction with my current job. I have been given a case and will hopefully meet with my new client next week. I have been given the role of CAMT which is Crisis Avoidance Management and Training. WOW! I am super nervous, but I feel like this is going to be an amazing experience for me :) I feel like I finally have the abilities to help others to the capacity
that I want to at this time, and this ability will only grow with more experience. Therefore by the time I graduate in May, I believe that I will certainly be ready for a job!
I was experiencing some anxiety about obtaining a real job after graduation. I shouldn't say was. Despite my new found confidence in my skills in the human services field, it is scary to think about having a real job, with real responsibilities. I suppose I have rather large responsibilities now, such as the welfare of children. Ya know, making sure they don't die or anything. But I don't know. I obviously want to get out of the group home setting, and out of DD for a while and see where that takes me.
I have more news, but will save that for a later date, as I need to get ready for class and have been distracted with other things all morning!!
