Where to start

Maybe this is why I lose readers - although, that assumes there were readers. It has been 3 weeks since the last post and all those where catch-up posts from the weeks before. Whew, that is not good. Time for another update...

School - Definitely on the forefront. There is a lot going on here. I just finished interviewing for my year-long internship where I looked at Brigham and Women's Hospital, Mass General Hospital, Newton-Wellesley Hospital, Portsmouth Regional Hospital and Spaulding Wellesley. The interviews are DONE! Now I just have to rank them...which is actually easier than I thought it would be. I think I rely on gut feelings a lot and they're helping me out a lot with this. All of them are good hospitals, with MGH and the Brigham...and maybe Newton-Wellesley ranking among the top hospitals in the nation. I am looking forward to finding out where I end up....and start getting paid! Classes are going alright. We have so much group work though that scheduling has been a mess. I have a group for health promotion, one for psych of disability, one for diagnostic screening, and one for ethics. I guess comp case and advanced ther-ex have their own groups as well...and I have presentation to do with another girl as well. All of those have large presentations due within the next 3 weeks. It is a little bittersweet being in class too since this is our last time with our classmates and faculty...our program director mentioned that today and it made me a little sad. I'll miss these people!

Family - Jonny is starting at Annapolis next week. Ben is looking at apartments in Boston and setting up his schedule at Suffolk Law School for the fall semester. Lydia and Kitty have started their vacation and summer jobs. Christian made the Leominster baseball all-star team which is a BIG deal and Mom and Dad got me a new phone for my bday!

Other life - Emily moved out of the apt and her friend's fiancee Jennifer moved in. We really like her and she just got a job! We don't know what we're going to do with the apt. I'd love to stay here, but it all depends on where we end up on our affiliations. And I turned 24...that is very old isn't it?

That's it...for now!
