I'm totally procrastinating. I have my first test for Interventions with troubled children class tomorrow and I don't feel ready. Yet I sit here blogging the night away. Dangit it'll just have to be a long night :(. (gigi we really need to plan studying together more often. It was SO helpful)
Had the meeting with my mom and the Social Work head of dept at APU today. It went sooo great. Prof. Johnson is seriously the sweetest lady ever. She told my mom not to freak out, that ill be fine in the field and that she should be proud that I would even want to go into that profession because it has such a bad reputation people don't really know what all it is to be a social worker just that 'we take kids away from families' SO not true. Also, that I have a huge advantage because I am bilingual which makes me more hire-able. AND if I go for my sign language interpreter certificate, I could make even more than just being bilingual! So ANYWHOO the meeting went great. My mom is so much more relieved hearing about all the areas I could go into that aren't so 'stressful' and that its not that horribly paid of a job as long as I go for my masters.
