well, not too bad – I’m definately not the youngest but I’m not the oldest either. I don’t know why that’s important to me, but it is.
A lot of reading, though – I better start.

To make the fall semester a bit more bearable, they offered one of the classes this summer. So in a couple of weeks, I’ll be a student – again!

I have been an O.T. for 13 years. I can honestly say that it has been such a fulfilling and versatile career. Who knew it would suit me so well when I chose this path as an 18 year old!

I don’t know why but now that I’ve completed all the prerequisites (took me a year and a half), I can’t bring myself to apply. I got so used to work towards just the application itself, I find myself stunned that this might actually become a reality. And that scares me!
I can apply this year for admission next year..
