WSASP conference

I attended the Washington State Association for School Psychologists conference in Spokane last week and into the holiday weekend. I networked as I'm trying to find the perfect internship. I presented as I'm trying to build a resume and I skipped a lot of boring classes and hung out with all my school friends! They weren't boring per se they were not new to us as students. We get the most updated info. in school and so we knew a lot of it, this was more for those psychs that have been practicing for years and have no idea what's going on to some extent. My favorite professor won the most prestigious award from the state and of course she gets up there and to some degree states "I hate awards I think they are too exclusive." So her! I love her so much! So here are some pictures of the event! I couldn't afford to stay in the amazing hotel so we quadrupled up at the Ramada Inn baby. And guess what was right our door. That's right folks a freakin' train that passed through about 50 times a night (totally not exaggerating)to keep us all awake!

Update on my life

I've been in school literally one day (Wed. night) and I have already become overwhelmed with crying twice. And so it begins. Poor Jim has had to endure this busy week with patience. After class I went to Jim's house and the moment I walked in he looked at my hand and just shook his head. I had already started writing notes to myself on my hand, just one class in to the new quarter. This can't be a good sign. Then I talked to my friend Carren on the phone and she said "You sound frantic" at which I replied it was the first day of class today (And i was walking up a huge hill so I was out of breath).

On another note, Jim and I looked at 2 vendors this weekend as we are hoping to secure a date and venue soon. They both looked promising!

And tomorrow I start weight watchers which I'm excited about and my car gets repairs done to it because some idiot backed up and hit me and didn't leave a note while I was parked. I hate people like that. I am also starting my fourth week of training tomorrow for the half marathon and I'm doing okay, not bad at all. In fact, I have to go walk 2 miles "briskly" right now. Later.
