I'm currently working a boring receptionist job to make some easy money before starting grad school in August. For the past three weeks or so, I have had little to do except surf the net all day. Well, I just wanted to thank you all for keeping me thoroughly entertained. When I see those names lit up on my buddy list, a surge of joy runs through my soul. I also feel slightly guilty for knowing about everyone else's life and saying very little about my own. So here goes.
I graduated from WKU last May and immediately moved to LA for some crazy reason. It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. But, it made me stronger and more confident and more aware of what I wanted out of life. After working as a drug counselor at a methadone clinic out there, I knew that I needed to go back to my roots and try to get into grad school for counseling.
I moved back to TN in February and have not looked back. It has been so great to be back around the friends and family I love and missed so much. I got into Lipscomb's graduate program in counseling with an assistantship which will pay half of my tuition...yay! At the end of grad school, I will be an LPC, or a Licensed Professional Counselor. I would love to be a marriage counselor eventually.
So, that's my life in a nutshell as the saying goes. Life is good. God is good. And I'm feeling content for the first time ever.
I would say that I hope you all are well, but from the blogs, I know that you are! Keep up the entertaining work...yall know I love it!
so it took me a few minutes to realize which lindsay this was... you need to come visit cabg again soon, i don't think i even got to talk to you last time you were there. hope TN is treating you well!
hey Lindsey! I always love your blogs in the rare instances that write them. sounds like you're doing well, good to hear! I've been a receptionist for two years now, and I'm very surprised I haven't died of boredom. they are good things, those active imaginations, let me tell you... :)
i miss you too! life is so crazy and it seems like going back sometimes ends up pushing you forward. ive considered moving home again just to be close to family but i don't know if ive proved my idependent self yet. glad youre doing so well and good luck in grad school you crazy thing!
Pleonast is seriously the devil. So is Facebook. I'm not on myspace, but I'm sure that one's pretty bad too. Whenever I have a paper due or a test to study for, I get on Facebook or Pleonast and browse stuff forever, until I feel bad and try to get back to my work for at least 15 minutes. Then I think, "Well I'll just look again for a few minutes as a little break for myself." What ends up happening is I look at Facebook and Pleonast far longer than I actually do work, and I end up staying up all night doing something that would normally have taken about one third of the time. Does any one else know what I'm talking about?
So, I'm going to get back to work now...at least I hope. I mean, this is just getting ridiculous.
what's to like about freud? inventing a system reductionist enough to explain everything + falsifying research + blindingly transparent logical leaps = ... lindsay likes? yes, i'm suing you heh.
That would be great!
YOU should be a counselor at camp this year. Hehe.
I'm back in Arizona and will be moving up to Wisconsin in two months Lordwilling.
Good to hear from you!
