Wow, this week has been a whirlwind!
I have almost made it through my whole first week as a school counseling intern. I can truly say "I HEART THIS". The administrators are super nice, the teachers are caring, the students are nice, and my supervisor (the regular counselor) is super awesome :) This place was a blessing to be at (thanks God!), and it totally fits me. I even got my own (class)room to work out of... that is completely mine!

[put window to about 1/4 screen for best viewing!]
And plus, I like the dress code lol. I can wear some cute cropped pants with just a cute cotton shirt with some cute clogs and totally fit in :)
Also got to lead (actually co-lead) a group tonight for the group class... very interesting experience to say the least lol.
first step to a new journey

Well, tomorrow is my first day of internship!! So full of nervous excitement about finally making it to this point. I am hoping I do well at my school placement. I really like the counselor I get to work with. She really enjoys working with the kids. I am not working anymore, so it's nice to be able to devote my full time and energy into making this a most fruitful learning experience.
I want to take this opportunity by the horns and ride it for what it is worth. I do not know what to expect, only that each bend in the journey will bring me closer to what I really want to do with my life :) I believe I was made to do this... that God gave me the gifts to help those (especially children) who need help in their life. This journey will be a roller-coaster for sure... but so is life.
I know I can do it!! Think good thoughts for me :)
PS - hopefully I may most more background fill stories from my long absence later this week
