Psych!

I'm DONE! I finished my child observation paper, shared it digitally...

But, I do plan on looking at it again in a few days, just to go over it and edit it. I can't stand looking at another paper right now, so I'm done, and time will give me a more objective perspective. But then I truly will be done. And tomorrow I visit my final internship site, in Putney VT! I hope it's amazing and perfect, so I don't have to think too much about deciding where I'm going to go next fall. In any case, after that visit, it's just a matter of writing an email to someone and saying: "can I be your intern!" And them saying, "Sure!"

And also, right after this post I'm going to work on a separate project for some friends. Which hopefully won't need more than one or two more drafts.

So the title of this post is kind of to say, "hey I'm done!... er, psych! I've got lots of things still to do. Whoops." But I like it that way. I like being busy. In fact, one of the main things I want to do is spend some time making a summer plan for myself, of fun stuff I want to accomplish.

And I really should plan something for my birthday. Really, the only thing I want is to spend time with as many good friends as possible. But I don't know that I will be able to, since I'm not in Iowa or New York. Perhaps I should send out a mass email saying, "hey! call me on Sunday and chat with me!" I suppose that would be pretty cool, if I can't actually be with people in the flesh.

Things I'm looking forward to in the immediate future:

-Finally having time to KonMarie my life.
-Finally having time to catch up and really learn the GTD methodology for relaxed productivity.
-Trying out some games
-Catching up on readings from school or related to teaching that I didn't have time to read with everything else happening
-Finishing artistic projects
-Doing something musical like continuing to learn guitar
-Continuing to learn a language
-Drawing
-Writing
-Talking with my friends more often.

And a little more distantly into the future:

-Hanging out with my friends in person!!!

-Playing games with my friends!


OK now, back to work... I really should do something to celebrate finishing up with my internship, and my birthday coming. Something really relaxing, like going to a sauna. I'm achy from all the sitting I've been doing.

I've got a bunch of good post ideas as well, baking in the oven, and perhaps I'll have more luck getting them done this summer, God willing (or "Deo Volentis" as the stoics used to say.)

Goodbye for now.
