Internship Search part 2

I have two interviews on Monday!!!! I'm so excited!!! :) I just found out about them in the last hour or so. :) So pray that I'll do well in my interviews!!

Internship Search part 1

Well probably not very many of you know that I am searching for an internship for next semester. The process so far has been stressful for me. I went to the internship fair the Social Work department puts on to help us.  I didn't get any response from any of the agencies. Which was ok. I figured that I probably would have to work on getting an internship considering I'm not the most charismatic person in the program. I waited for a couple of weeks as all the agencies sent out their interview lists and there was one agency (who wasn't at the fair but got a lot of resumes sent to them the next week) to send out their interview list. So yesterday I figured it had been a couple of weeks and I needed to start calling other people on the internship list who weren't at the internship fair.  I tried calling 10 people I only got a hold of about 4 or 5 and left messages with the ones I could (some places I called I had absolutely no idea what their system was about and couldn't figure out how to get a hold of the person I wanted). I talked to 2 people who said they couldn't take interns or they didn't need them for the next semester. I went to tell the social work secretary that those people weren't taking interns so that other people who tried to call wouldn't have to call and could try and get an internship too. While I was talking to her, she told me that one of my professors was going to email me.  I got 3 emails from him today. I was kinda funny cause the emails were almost one right after another. One of them said that someone from the internship fair was interested in interviewing me! :) :) I was so excited! I want to do that one because it sounded really interesting. So I'm in the process of setting up an interview with her right now. :D So cross your fingers and wish me luck but don't forget to pray for me so that I can get an internship! :)

Change is good... Right?

Helllllo bangs! I decided that I look good in bangs a few days ago and decided I wanted to get them cut since I needed a trim anyway.  Unfortunately you don't get the full bangs in this picture because the lady at the salon made them too thick! Boo! So only the bangs I like are down the rest are pulled back by a bobby pin(but I dunno if I'll go into that much effort every day to pull them back?) But anyway I'm planning on growing out the part I don't like and keeping the part I do (which is shown in this picture).
Ps for Michelle... I'm wearing the blue BYU sweatshirt you gave me for Christmas lots of years ago. :) I hope that makes you happy that I still like it and think of you whenever I wear it.

I voted!

I am so excited! I just voted in the election for this year. :) :) I felt like I really needed to vote this year and a few weeks ago I sent in for an absentee ballot.  I wasn't quite sure I was going to get it before the election because when I sent for one in the 2008 election... well I got it 3 days after the election so my opinion of absentee ballots weren't very high...
But this afternoon when I checked the mail, this yellow envelope was in it!!! I was so excited I ripped open the envelope as fast as I could when I got back into my apartment so I could vote. So I'm kinda silly.
The only down side to voting via absentee ballot is I didn't get a sticker saying "I voted" or a treat for voting... But still, I did what I was supposed to do! :)

2 am

Dear 2 am,
I am totally and completely fine with our meetings when I am asleep.  Our meetings when I am awake however are NOT ok. Please please please let me sleep.
Sincerely, Cherilyn Davidson

So you all can tell that it is 2 am and obviously I am not asleep. Grrr. I tried I promise but somehow my brain keeps thinking. I still haven't quite figured out how to turn it off. Not a good thing. Well sorry for my complaints but I am just tired of being awake. *yawn*

A Little Piece of Bliss

 

This amazingness is know as tempura bananas. The bananas are dipped in a sauce then deep fried and it is soo incredibly good! :) It is sold at a little restaurant in Rexburg called the Pineapple Grill. 

I just wanted to share it with all of you. :)

Thursday...

So today a group of girls and I from my Mental Health class went to the Mental Health Court in Idaho Falls.  We had to leave Rexburg by 6:10 am to get to the courthouse by 7 am. For those of you who know me well know I am not an early morning person.  It was hard to get up at 5 to get ready to be out the door by 6. But it was totally worth it. :) I have been saying that I would be willing to work anywhere in social work as long as I would be able to get a job, but I have always been thinking that I was a little bit apprehensive about working with people with a mental illness.  But today was such a good experience. I really am interested in doing an internship with the people from the A.C.T. team who help with the mental health court.  And the internship fair for the internships in the winter is next week... So maybe I'll make a good impression. :)

Just a Silly Moment

I was making my self some hot cocoa and I felt like playing with the spoon... :) It was a little bit hard to get it balanced exactly right but I did it! haha. And I was able to walk around my apartment without it falling off... that takes skill!! (maybe I should be spoon girl for Halloween... nah)   Just so ya know this is not what I am learning in college (I'm learning real skills... like learning how to run a therapeutic group and lots of other fun exciting stuff!).
Another note about this picture, I curled my hair today. Something I am not often known to do and it made me happy. So I guess I should do it more often? We'll see... it depends on my mood when I'm getting ready.
