Graduation

That's it. School is officially done. I've received my diploma and am ready (supposedly) to begin my new career as a counselor. YIKES!!!!!!!!!!! It's a little daunting, although not as intimidating as going back to school in the first place. The day was a little more emotional than I anticipated. It really felt like the end of a very important time for me. I loved being in school. I love learning, I loved meeting new people and learning about their lives and what motivates them. I loved tackling new subjects and challenging myself. School became a safe place for me and now it's behind me. So begins studying (yes, more studying) for my National Board Exams and applying for my state license. I'm still not positive which state (or states) I will be applying for my license in, but I'll figure that out in time. School was an amazing experience and I'm looking forward to pursuing my Doctorate.....after I take a nice long break :)
