The feeling when you calculate your grade and if you get a zero on the final you can still pass the class.
RELIEF.
C’s get degrees. I can practice OT with my Master’s as long as I pass all courses.
But lets not get to ahead. I still want my A. (:
my narcissistic moment:
I’m on the OT page for Loma Linda :)
and of course, all my fellow SOTA members. One year almost done!
80% of cardiac deaths (heart attack) during sex occurs in men who are cheating on their wives. Its a combination of guilt, stress, annnd too much metabolic energy being exerted. evidence based. research proven.
Just food for thought!
“Doctors add years to an individual’s life.
An Occupational Therapist adds life to those years”
Live life to its fullest.
I worked hard on this video submission for AOTA’s centennial vision.
We don’t have to win… since it was pretty much a one person job.
Enjoy!
My goal was to increase awareness of OT.
I didn’t even put a picture of myself. haha
The gravity of how much I am paying for school did NOT hit me until today.
Interest is a BITCH.
Its my first year.. and I am taking out loans to pay for school..
With interest…. my total to pay back (after i graduate) for YEAR ONE is: 86,400.
If i count the next two years of school I will be paying at the minimum: $220,000
HOLY SHIT!
Might as well get my doctorate since I will owe a house or two. haha
.. I should just work in the prison system as an Occupational Therapist since they can make about 10k a month. But that’s only if someone doesn’t kill me first with a paperclip.
I got assigned my first fieldwork today.
I REALLY REALLY REALLY wanted to go up to norcal and be with my cousins and my besfren norman for two weeks.
BUT.. I got placed in Banning, Ca at a school district. I would’ve been at a skilled nursing facility if I went up to norcal and people know.. elderly is not the population I want to work with.
SO IM EXCITED! I’ve never seen school-based occupational therapy yet so it’ll be fun getting into other things.
Next fieldwork I am really aiming for mental health. That topic fascinates me!
Anyway, next week my quarter is officially done then off to fieldwork then spring break!
K, I am done ranting!
