New semester

      Nothing further on my quest to open a clinic has happened recently but I will just keep praying about it and God will guide the way. The Spring semester has officially began, bluh... Actually it isn't to bad. I have 5 classes: Neuro rehab for adult, Assistive technology, Developmental disabilities, Teaching in practice and group intervention (doesn't start until March). I don't think they will be overly time consuming or super difficult material but all have huge reading assignments per week,combined, average 15 chapters. So my collegues collaborated and created a system where each student signs up to summarize 2 chapters and uses google documents to send to all collaborating students. This makes it less overwhelming and if I don't get to a chapter or 10 then atleast I have an outline which is better than not reading it at all. I am pretty sure you would hav to be Clark Kent to read that many chapters in a week :) Their aren't as many group projects as last semester but there are still atleast one in each class if not two.But last semester I had a lot more. As long as I keep ahead on the assignments like I did last semester I think I will do well. We get to pick our summer rotations in just a few weeks!! I have a couple different ones I am thinking about. Sooner start which is working with 0-3 years old, The reahab center which works with 0-18 in Texas and the Childrens Center in OKC which is an inpatient peds hospital. I don't know any of the logistics but these are some that I need to think about.
Oh another thing I have been pondering and researching is a new DSLR camera and I have come to the conclusion that all I want for my birthday is money to go towards buying my very own with a couple of lenses. I still need to figure out which one I would like and would fit me best but I have time for that. So just if you were wondering since it is my 25th and all :) Pass it along.
