Happy Easter!
I can hardly believe that I have been back in the USA for four months, which was the amount of time I was studying abroad. Wow. These four months have dragged, unlike the fall semester. When I was there, four months felt like a really, really long time, but in reality it is just such a short time. I'm sure it's going to be beautiful there. I'd have loved to have been in Denmark in the spring. Some day I will be back.
In about one month I graduate from college! My goodness how time has flown! High school graduation seems just like yesterday. I have fervently been applying to jobs, but not much luck yet. I have heard back from two places to be a TSS (Therapeutic Support Staff) worker. You work one on one with autistic children. These places do not take money out of my paycheck for taxes, which makes me really uncomfortable. Also, they do not guarantee full-time, nor permanent hours. I think that's a sign that I should keep looking. I'll just keep working at Panera until that job comes along. Or I might keep Panera as a second job as those loan repayments will quickly be coming...
I finished my internship at the charter school last Thursday. I will miss Mariah and Tatyanna a lot, but not the disorganization of that school. I always felt like I was in the way, and they could never really think of things for me to do. I would have liked to have worked with more than two students, but it's okay, in the end it ended up being a positive experience. This coming Thursday, I will be going to my local high school to shadow the school psychologist. My experience with EU Academy's "school psychologist" was something to be desired... Let's just say that.
Life goes on. The next time I update this thing, I may be a graduate of Eastern University! Crazy!
