I put in a full day at my internship and then babysat for 9 hours after that. I’m looking forward to the days when working as a school psychologist and earning money are one in the same. Despite the long day, I got to eat three glorious pieces of Upper Crust pizza and some awesome pumpkin bread (my first re-introduction of soybean oil, which made my stomach hurt, obv.), as well as watch 2 straight hours of cable TV, during…

Howdy blog world, I had a busy busy day at the ‘ole internship, which left me feeling a little drained this evening. The good news? I don’t have a food allergy!!!!!!! I really didn’t think I had one given that I don’t have any immune-system related symptoms, but I’m still so relieved. I do plan to stay away from scary artificial soy products and soybean oil, but soy lecithin (aka, chocolate) will be back in my life. The bad news…
Another wet day here, but I’m heading to the warm and festive nook known as the Border Cafe for drinks after work!!!! I do believe this will be my first happy hour (well, technically I’ve been many times, but it doesn’t count if you don’t go to work first). Also, a side note, drink specials are not allowed in Boston, so happy hour is really not any happier than other hours except for the fact that drinking after work tends…
I was so productive today, that I finished all of my work by lunch time…and then I was exhausted. Enter TJ’s frozen burrito with basmati rice and salsa verde; not great, but it did the trick. I’m pooped, and by pooped I mean I’m too tired to blog (where did that phrase come from anyway? I probably shouldn’t ask…) I’m about to make dinner and there’s a 99% chance it’s going to involve bread, peanut butter, and jelly. I’ll be…
Good Evening, Despite only 6 hours of sleep, I had productive day at the high school and left feeling content. I met with a few of the guidance counselors about my newly-assigned cases and made phone calls to parents. I’m just so pleased to be working at such an awesome place with welcoming, friendly faces:) I’m also pleased that it’s apple season because I’ve been eating them in some form every day. Sometimes I think apples are boring because I…
Hi Yall, The days have been flying by and I haven’t felt too tired from getting up at 6:30 [yet]. I spent more time organizing files today, got an email address (!) and learned about different opportunities within the school. In addition to my regular case load, it looks like I might be coordinating the Student Support Team, which is exciting, but very overwhelming at this point. I really need to get myself organized and mentally prepared for the busy…
Hello, Hello! Thank you all for your words of wisdom about the working world! I’ll keep them in mind in the coming months. My first day was swell. It began with a celebratory bowl of back to school cinnamon-apple-raisin oatmeal….probably one of the best bowls I’ve had in a while. My commute took a little bit longer than expected, but I still got there on time. I was walking in as all of the high school kids were arriving and…
Mornin’. I’m off to my first day day of work! Because I’m beginning my internship today, I wanted to start a discussion about adjusting to a full-time work schedule. I’ve been really spoiled over the last two years because my grad school classes were at night, so I’ve had the luxury of sleeping a bit later, working out in the mornings, eating a hot lunch at home, and making my own work schedule based on when I am most productive. I…
Good morning! I’m currently enjoying a bowl of strawberry yogurt flakes and watching Ellen. I only have three more weeks until I begin my full time internship, so I’m trying to relax as much as possible! I’m really going to miss having time in the mornings because I’m one of those people who takes a while to get going after I wake up. One of the ways I’m trying to bring balance to my life is by doing more enjoyable…
