Back in action...

Alright, I feel pretty guilty about not blogging in....weeks. So I'm back at it. But, at the same time, I am feeling guilty because at this moment I am blogging in class (yikes!). I should be paying attention BUT....if I wasn't doing this I would probably be almost asleep. (Even after two large coffees!) Also, the prof. is lecturing on a topic that I read thoroughly the other day so I'm not really missing much :)

The class I am currently in is called Social Work practice with Individuals. It's all about individual counseling, which is something I am doing a lot at my internship. The lecturing in this class can be kind of boring, but sometimes he shows us good videos of counseling sessions. The real, good counseling is nothing like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYLMTvxOaeE

I have two other classes that I am currently taking. At 8am on Fridays I have Mental Health Policy, which is very interesting. I think that it will be better than my undergrad policy class where he frequently made us act like we were politicians. My third class (which is from 3:30-6 on Fridays) is called Social work practice with groups. It is about group therapy which is one of my favorite things :) It is my favorite class this quarter because I love the topic and the prof. is really interesting and has a lot of experience. He also has the unfortunate tendency of using the word sh** about 25 times each class. We're not in Cedarville anymore! :)

Even though I am learning a lot in classes, I feel like I learn ten times more each day at my internship (I'll write more about it another day) and I am anxious to be done with classes. I have about 8 months left until graduation which equals about 26 more weeks of class...which will be approximately 208 more hours of class. But, Sarah reminded me the other day that I am already over 4/5 of the way done my college education. Good thing I have such an optimistic friend!
