Today I am going in to my last practicum site to help the District Psych do end of the year cleaning. He assures me that this will be a great "learning experience" HA! I bet. Oh well, it was a great practicum location and I learned oodles so the least I can do is help clean up some of the mess I most likely contributed to. Mr. J (the District Psych) is also a super funny dude so I am sure that it will be entertaining. AND my co-practicum student and I got him a thank you cake - so there will also be yummy snacks. Can't go wrong then!
I turned in an application for another paid internship that was posted. This one pays EXTREMELY well, like $24/hour! The odds of me getting it are slim to none as the Special Ed BigWig of the district is the director of the competing university in town. So once he sees what graduate school I attend my application will most likely end up in the trash. But I figure, it wont hurt too much to try. And if I get an interview out of it, I will get another practice at interviewing, which although those are painful, they are good for me to get through.
Haven't heard anything about my interview from Wednesday yet. I sent a thank you note to the special ed director and am still hoping for the best. When I think about the competition out there my optimism does begin to wane a but, but I am still trying to hang on to the positive feelings I felt as I walked out of the interview. So I shall continue to wait until I hear the news. At least I know I will get the news before the end of the day next Friday, but that seems like a long while to wait.
PS - I loath waiting.
