Cloud 9!

Today I got THEEE best news!

I got my acceptance letter for my summer internship. I applied a couple months ago and I finally heard back, I am going to be working in the child development labs at hill air force base.

This was only the first bit of awesome the news, the best part is that to launch my internship, I am being sent on an all expense paid trip to Columbia, Maryland for an orientation and conference.

I am SO excited, and feeling very old and mature...just graduating and going to conferences...no big deal.

Looks like my life will be undergoing some big changes in the next little while and I am thrilled about it; I am feeling very thankful for all the experiences I have had that have brought me here!

10 years

In a few short months I will be a college graduate. The realization that after four years of college I am actually finishing is stirring up a lot of anxiety in me. Until this point, my life has been mapped out- after high school I was always going to go to college. Now that the college chapter of my life is wrapping up I feel like I am nearing the end of a tunnel...a tunnel that I have been traveling in for quite a while...and I honestly don't know what I'm going to see when I exit the tunnel, I have no idea what to expect. So...today I created my 10 year bucket list. My new path for after graduation, because as they say, "If you fail to plan, you plan to fail."
Well here is my plan...

Graduate from college
Sky Dive
Take the GRE
Get accepted into graduate school
Get my masters in family therapy
Be an awesome therapist
Run a half marathon
Travel to Hawaii, Italy and Thailand
Write a song
