While I have found most of my classes dis-interesting and unhelpful this year, there was a conversation this morning in my Practice class that I found very relevant. One of the other students in the class mentioned that she was having trouble with not bringing her social work practicum back home with her. That is, [...]

Today is the best day in the world. I have finally finished my 3 substance abuse papers (one 5-7 pg, and two 3-4 pg papers) which were given no due date, which made them nearly impossible to time manage, despite the easy nature of the subject matter. Additionally, I have completed my Policy Impact on [...]

Yesterday was my first day of practicum–pretty much the one thing every social work student thinks about consistently during their entire degree. it’s a pretty important facet of the social work education–a good practicum facilitates your social work experience and really prepares you for the professional market. A bad practicum? Well, talk about demoralizing, difficult [...]

I was looking at old pictures of my on facebook, and it left me with a mixture of longing and relief. pictures of the 1125 group (Lynds, Emily, Tyler, Peter, Phily, Ian, Dan etc etc) made me feel for the first time in a long time accepted and appreciated. Because of my friendships with them, [...]

I know, long time no update. However, I plan on letting you know a little bit about what I’ve been doing recently. Starting June 1st, I started training for my practicum. Many of the BSW (and I’m sure MSW) practicums don’t have any training associated with them, but MOCSA (Metropolitan Organization to Counter Sexual Assault) [...]

So, finally I have finished all of my finals for this semester. Incidentally, it will be my last finals week ever. The Social Welfare department at KU doesn’t do finals, instead anything we have due, is due the WEEK before everyone else’s finals. So, we get to relax, and breathe. I think I did fine [...]

i’m sorry i’ve been so infrequent in my postings. i know you all have been dying to hear what all i’ve been doing. so, here we go:
i have decided to go vegetarian. well, technically, ovo-lacto pescetarian (meaning, i’ll have eggs, milk and fish. well, milk only for cereal, and i don’t drink it anyway!). i [...]
