SCHOOOOL'S OUT FOR THE SU...the next two weeks

The semester is officially over! Hooray! It technically ended on Friday, but I actually got done on May 7. (Why we say the semester goes that late even though grades are due before then is beyond me, but I am in no way complaining about being done early!) It is GLORIOUS to just go to work (I am a substitute teacher at a daycare and they have called me in every day since my classes got done) and come home and not have to do any homework. I've been gardening, visiting friends, making jewelry again, snuggling with my hubby, and watching an excessive amount of episodes of "What Not to Wear." Glo-ri-ous.

But, in another 2 weeks the fun will be put on hold again as I am taking two summer classes- Psychopathology and Paradigms of Clinical Practice. As much as I am not thrilled about doing the work and having to drive into the city again, I know I will appreciate this later since this will lighten my course load over the regular school year. Which reminds me, I still need to get my books and renew my parking permit....

Thanks friends for reading. Although I can't say how much I'll be blogging over the summer, I will be back in the fall in prime blogging form. So, continue to send any questions about student life by leaving a comment at the end of this blog. I will get back to you and answer your questions as best as I can.

I hope you all enjoy some lazy summer days! Till next time,
-Sharon

Hey,
Congratulations on finishing the semester up! I was wondering if you had some advice for someone who is going to apply... I just barely missed the deadline for fall 08, but I have taken all the prereqs and have my application ready. Do you have any suggestions of volunteer opportunities in the city or ways to get some experience before school? Thanks!
-Sara
