hip hip hooray!

So, I officially got offered my internship today!! So exciting! I honestly can't wait to start! Yay!

Two points of interest though. So, I had to write this essay for my application for my internship. In the last paragraph, I mentioned that I would eventually like to learn Spanish so I could reach more clients. Haha....well, I guess whoever was reading it thought I already knew Spanish, so they paired me with a bilingual EIS (Early Intervention Specialist) who has mostly Spanish speaking clients. I will be doing most of my shadowing/observation with her. And have no clue what is going on/being said! Haha...they said she would translate for me as much as she could, but she can't spend her whole time doing that. Maybe I will be picking up some Spanish sooner than I thought. Oh dear. This should be interesting.

Also, a girl a couple of years older than me who went to Baylor and was a speech path major sent me a message on facebook saying that she is actually an EIS where I will be interning. I think I've met this girl maybe once or twice (we are facebook friends, so you know that makes it official!), so I don't know her well or anything, but at least I'll have a work friend! Kinda cool how things like that work out.

The only thing I'm not excited about is the driving. Oi vey! I am splitting my time between 2 offices on sort of opposite sides of town and neither office is particularly close to my parent's house. The Buick will be gettin' a lot of miles put on her! And I thought my drive to work last year was bad...

Anyways, just wanted to update. Hope all is well! God bless!
