I Got It!

Yes, people...that's right; I GOT THE JOB! I heard word yesterday that they have chosen me to be their student intern in January so I FINALLY have a place to go! I'll be in a chaotic, busy, and challenging environment...and though I'm slightly scared, I'm pretty excited about it too. It's a whole new experience doing things I really haven't had any hands-on experience with yet. I love the medical side to Speech Therapy, so I'm excited to get my hands in it all and see if it's really all I've hyped it up to be! All the therapists that I'll be working with are really nice and friendly, and I think that I'll get along with them really well. Our personalities just seemed to "click." They told me that I "have great interview skills and that's going to get me far." Wow! What a compliment! Oh, and I get to wear SCRUBS! Yes! They were all so cute in their scrubs...I'm gonna be cute like that. So, thanks for all the support and prayers everyone...it worked!

Taking the First Step

Well, I do believe that I've made the first step in "growing up." Being single and being blessed with a career that allows me to find a job wherever I want to go, the world really is my oyster right now! I have had the choice of choosing WHEREVER I wanted to go to start my career...the problem was figuring out WHERE that place was! I realize in this economy, this is a good problem to have; but it's been overwhelming to think about. But, after much thought and discussion with my mother (of which all good decisions are ultimately based on...) I do believe I've FINALLY decided where I'm going to narrow down my job search to! Woo-hoo! I'm going to move to (drum-roll please....) GREENVILLE, SOUTH CAROLINA! I am THRILLED! The town is very "young" and extremely cute! There are lots of options of places to work there, and apparently churches like my church back home are in abundance. It actually has SEASONS, it's in the mountains, it's close to my family in South Carolina, it's fairly close to home, and it's really close to our cabin in North Carolina. I think it's all around just a perfect place for me to go. So, I'm ready for May to get here so that I can graduate and move!

I mean honestly, who WOULDN'T want to live here???

And as for the interview; it went well, but I've still yet to hear if I got the placement or not. However, after what the interviewer told me about how LITTLE supervision they could dedicate to me, I'm kind of hoping I DON'T get the offer! But, if I do, I know I can handle it, it'll just be a lot more of a challenge than expected.

Big Kid Interview

I have my interview for my medical placement tomorrow. I'm just now starting to get a little bit nervous about it. I've never had an interview before, and now I'm having my first one, "big kid" style! If I don't get it, then I'm back to square one of finding a place to go come January. But, I'm just telling myself that I'll get it if I'm supposed to. So, surprisingly, I'm not as stressed about it as I would've thought. Guess I'll just have to wait and see...and trust that God will work everything out as HE sees fit. That's the only thing keeping me sane! I know my God will take care of me...He always has, and I know He's not going to stop now.
