I had many highs and lows that comprised this week. I felt on edge a couple of days and on Thursday had a breakdown, feeling really incompetent when treating a patient. I talked to my instructor and she was very helpful and gave me some great treatment suggestions. Since this was my first struggle I have faced I was frustrated with myself. However, it opened my eyes to how much I need to grow and push myself to become an entry-level practitioner. I also become a little overwhelmed with how much I have juggle between my upcoming inservice/case study for my facility and my online class. I now remember how school used to be.... After a few days though, I have gotten back in the swing of things by making lists and using my planner. :)
Tonight, the other interns and I made pizzas, watched Youtube videos, slid down our LONG staircase on an ironing board (readers discretion for that one--not advisable), slid down the banister, and practiced deep tissue massage....heading to Chattanooga tomorrow! Woo hoo! A much needed night of fun energy spent, and looking forward to an adventuresome and productive weekend.
I also talked to my future roommies this week and am really excited about meeting up with them in 7 more weeks! So blessed my family is healthy, my friends are doing well, and I have this opportunity to learn and teach others.
Much love and blessings. <3
It's crazy when we have days like that. I am so glad God helped you sort them out though. I think it's so neat what you're doing and did they actually let you slide down the stairs like that? How awesome!!
