Renewal
So, I know that this break is only like 4 days long, but I really sense that it is going to be a time of relaxation and renewal. I just finished up the last of my homework for tomorrow, and I am getting ready for bed so that I can be awake while driving tomorrow. The biggest paper of the semester that I had is finished, and will be off my hands as of noon tomorrow. Today I got to hang out with more of the old people. The first client that I had was mentally challenged, and I just loved her spirit. She was so excited that I came to hang out with her...even though I was not really wanting to be there. It was 7 am, and me being awake at 630 am to get ready to go is not my idea of fun. Nonetheless, I am really happy that I went. I also had to go from 1-3 today and that was even more fun. It is awesome when I see the same people every week. Its kind of like you build a relationship with them and they are more open to talking with you. Sometimes, I am the only interaction that they really get during the day, so when they get that chance, they let loose! This was our last week at the senior center, and I am kind of disappointed. I think that I am going to continue going next semester, and probably until I can't anymore. My supervisor is probably the best that anyone could have. She is so willing to connect and have a relationship with you besides just at the senior center. Even if I am not a social work major anymore, I am glad that I got to take the class where I had this amazing experience!
