Today was a big day for me. It was one filled with high anticipation and anxiety, followed by intense feelings of relief. Today, I found out my official graduation date for grad school! Summer 2012. Alas, the end is in sight.
After a few weeks of stress and worry, I got accepted to do my practicum this Summer, instead of the Fall, which would of left me with the graduation date of December 2012. Frown. That would not have made me happy. With this great opportunity, I will get to have working experience in a community counseling setting along with a school setting, which will ultimately help me do my job to the best of my ability. I am a very lucky, fortunate girl to have been chosen.
While I sit in my quiet apartment at the end of the day, it hits me. A wave of consuming peace moves through my body. I could literally feel my body relax from my head to my feet. In processing the days events, I came to this peaceful realization that I am moving forward. My hard work is paying off. For once, I did not feel like life was passing me by while I'm under the constraints of my schoolwork.
It was such a fantastic day. With this newfound tranquility, I can rest easy tonight.
YAhoo!! I just read this! So excited for you (and also for me bc this means you will be in Albany for good sooner)!!!!
