| so after the most stressful 2 weeks i've ever experienced during school, I AM DONE!!!!!!! ahhhhhahahahahahhahhaha!!!!! yayayayayayayayyyyy!!!!!! my first year of grad school is officially over and i am now a 2nd year grad student :) this year has seriously sucked the life out of me, given me 309242093 grey hairs, experienced things i never knew stress could do to you, and a few ass beatings from some autistic kids from hell. i have never thought about school so much before, to the point where if i'm not doing work, i feel guilty that im doing ANYTHING else. but admist it all, i learned a lot, figured out how much more there is to learn, found some really good friends, and even a nice boy :) sooooo....first year....im glad to say....GOODBYE!!!!!!! better enjoy my WHOLE MONTH off before it allllll begins again. cant wait to go homeeeeeee.

| man oh man, do i love old people. so this client is an 88 y/o man who had a stroke a while back, so he has a lot of speech problems. So today in therapy, we made valentines for his wife and his other clinician (mind you, these took about 30 minutes to do). I almost died laughing. Laughed so hard I was crying- just couldn't control myself! Days like this I know I'm in the right field. soooo cuteeeee!
Dear (wife),
I love you. Most of the time.
But you're a pain in the ass.
I love you a lot always.
I love you a lot because you are a gentle woman.
I miss you.
Happy Valentine's Day to you!
love,
RJD (client)
Dear Lindsay (other clinician),
I want you to get a lot of chocolate.
I hope that you get married.
I miss you a lot.
I like you a lot for speech therapy and I want to say how much I miss you.

| so i had my last final today, but somehow i just dont feel done.
not really feelin the freedom, or that weight lifted off my shoulders
for some reason. maybe it's cuz i came home to a RIDICULOUS
apartment.....all i have to say is, finals week is the WORST time to
get your place exterminated. trust me, it wasnt by choice. long story.
by the end of the tmrw, ill have done 20 trash bags of laundry.
anyhow, cant wait to go home on thursday! hope everyone gets back safe.

| 5 days til finals are over. 10 days til i get to home. 20 days til
2006. 24 days til CALI. haha, but who's counting? really wish i had a
car and a parking spot here....it'd make traveling just that much
easier. but time sure does fly! it's been a good semester- lots of new
friends, both in and out of school. learned a crapload about
speech therapy, about myself, about what i really believe, about what i
dont know i believe, and about how being too nice gets you in trouble
sometimes. "sometimes you just gotta be a bitch." i know, you'd think i
woulda learned that lesson already! in some respects, this year
has made me feel like a freshman all over again. new place, new
friends, new everything. being in dc has really made me realize how
easy it is for people to come and go in your life. just like that, old
friends become forgotten friends, but not by choice. sometimes you just
gotta let go and keep those good memories. and what about new
friends? are they real? do they really know me? do i really
know them?
sometimes ill be talking to someone, or walking somewhere, or sitting
in class and all of a sudden ill realize "oh my gosh, i think im
growing up". haha, is that weird? yea....maybe a
little. but this is the time in my life to start doin that.
focus on my passions, my work, the things i love, the people i
love...but at the same time refusing to settle for anything. well, when
it comes to the important stuff at least. do i settle too often?
well that's it for now...too much work to be done to spend time writing
more. but gluck with finals, kiddlies! just one more week, and
then it's a big congrats to you psu grads....especially the hoagie
eating hogre and coco bongo :) onto bigger and better things now,
huh?
