Okay, so today I went to my internship which ended up being a waste of a day in my opinion. I did however get some reading done for my classes tomorrow. Other than that I listened to my field instructor talk some more about her life and how she is bitter at her ex who is the father of her son. I don't know if I really get anything from finding out so much about her life and how its made her who she is or not. The highlights of my day included helping to buy over $400 of stuff from UStoy.com for the incentives for the kids that come to groups. I also helped the counselor pick out what pencils we are ordering for Red Ribbon week in October. Granted all of these things are important, but I really didn't talk or see kids today. I felt in a lot of ways bored, useless, and frustrated the same feelings I have been having. The other student who is doing her internship at the school with me finally sent a letter to our field liaison this morning. We will see what she says. . . stay tuned.

I arrived back here in the afternoon because we left right after school was out. I took the dog out for a walk, she is a great dog. I am going to miss her a lot when she has to leave. We have become quit attached to each other! Then I went out for a run, which was totally horrible! I had to stop and walk for a bit on the way back from my loop. It is so easy to get out of shape, but so hard to get in shape and stay in shape. I am trying to figure out when I can run more or just more days, but right now its hard and I am so tired from everything a lot! I need to figure something out. . . before I become some flabby old guy that sits on the couch all day on his days off and watches TV!

Speaking of TV I watched three hours of quality TV tonight. First, I watched Inocente de Ti at six. . . its getting good almost the end of the show about a week away now. Por favor, quiero a ver Julio Alberto y Florecita estan juntos para siempre! Then I watched Gilmore Girls for the first time this season, yeah I know its a show more for girls, but I like it! Then at 8 I watched Commander in Chief on ABC, the new one where Gena Davis is President. Hmm. . . very intriguing I think I'll keep watching it because politics is fascinating to me. I don't really want to go into politics, but when I was a much younger I always wanted or thought I would be the president someday. I guess a part of me still likes this noble idea of leading the US and making America better!

Okay, I really don't know who reads this blog, if you know me very well, don't know me that well, know who I am but have never met me, or don't know who I am and have never met me, but this is all besides the point. Right now I am feeling just okay about everything. Sometimes I really don't know how I feel, or what I am supposed to be feeling right now is one of those times. My practicum is not really going well, school is school, I don't really like anyone in particular. . . which is kind of depressing sometimes because I don't want to be alone the rest of my life. . . but then again I love and thrive on my independence sometimes. However, I do a damn good job taking care of myself or making my own path! But then I know what I want at the same time, if I meet someone or see someone that fits that, watch out! One of the things that I look the most forward to at night is watching my favorite TV show(s) sometimes because I am so tired and do not want to think anymore, which is sad! I have to say friends help a lot, God helps even more. Those of you who don't know I am a Christian also and find great strenght and my beliefs in the Bible and in God. Everything else just gets me frustrated sometimes, and then I need to realize what my focus is and if it matches what my focus should be. Okay this was pretty intense!
