Well, I guess a lot has happened since my last post! I'm all set for the conference! Bought my plane ticket and booked my hotel! Guess I'm going to Arizona! hahaha It hasn't fully kicked in yet and it probably won't until I'm at the airport. I'm excited though--really excited! Woo! Woo!
Last week was super busy. It kind made me feel like it was a little taste of what working in Higher Ed was going to be like. Lindsay has let the PAs help out with some of the interviews for the Graduate Interns, Yosayra let me help out with some PL interviews, the PAs have been working on programs and--oh yeah--there was a conference. All in one week! It made me realize why the advisors love Friday so much. hahahahaha
It's been cool though--getting a chance to work a little behind the scenes and see all the hard core stuff the advisors do. And, yes, I still want to go into the field. haha
Doing PL interviews was really interesting I guess because I was once the interviewee and now I'm one of the interviewers. It kind of makes me wonder what it was about me that stood out... Anyways, I'm really excited for the new set of PLs! I get to do the icebreaker for group process on Wednesday. Not gonna lie--I didn't realize how fast this was going to come.
I had dinner with Krista, who was the PLC my first year and she gave me some advice:
-Don't burn yourself out, balance.
-Get started on things early.
-When you see a problem starting, nip it in the bud right away.
I think it's good advice!
Well, I'm going to go back to working on that essay! I just needed a little break! Another busy week, but me and Mr. Coffee are ready to go go go!
