Job Searching!

So it's been a little over a month since I started job searching. I'm going to defer graduate school for a year, that is, if I even get in, and go work in the public schools as a Speech Language Assistant for a year!

I've already had three informational interviews, all of which went really well. I also have three job shadowing days set up to observe SLPs working with young children in the schools. I'm excited about this!

The people at South Bend Schools that met with me were very nice, and the one man, Chuck, told me that he was very impressed with me (my manners, eye contact, etc.). And then, of course, I added, ... "Oh, and I'm bilingual too." Just to impress them more. :))

But I'm feeling confident about everything and I'm ready to start applying soon.
Wish me luck!!

Almost to the End

It's almost the end of my last semester at Saint Mary's College! I can't believe it! It's going so fast, but I'm also glad to be done with homework! The bad news is that I have two more classes to take this summer at IUSB. The good news is that one of them is visual technology Art. And the other is Chemistry. mmerrr...

I also am making some new friends this semester and wished I could have met them much earlier in my 4 years here. That's okay. They both live pretty close to me.

So far classes are going okay. The hardest one I have is Physio Psychology. Uh! The professor is hard, he talks in run-on sentences and has pretty convoluted and lengthy notes. It's hard to study for his tests and they are sooo unpredictable! I wish I took Development Psychology where I could have spent more time with the kids at ECDC. That's okay. I'm almost done and I'm finally getting the hang of this class. Too bad that couldn't have happened earlier in the semester.

I'm also sooo glad it's finally spring!! It's beautiful out! I'm spending more time outside reading and walking.

Anyways... all is good, but I have to go to Personality Psychology now!!

Be back soon for more updates. Next blog will be about "Job Searching." Fun stuff!
