New school year, one down, and two more to go. I thought that practicum was going to be easy but from the looks of it, it isn't going to be at all. I have seven required texts for this semester and five 'recommended' texts. Then the prof is all like, "if you just skim through these texts, you shouldn't even be in this program. If you just read the required texts, you'll do okay. But if you want to be a good therapist, you need to read all the text...thoroughly and do some more research." What the hell? Like I have all that time to do that. Easy there with the guilt trip buddy. But whatever, the fact of the matter is that I really do want to be a good therapist..and if reading all those books will make me be one, then I guess that's what I gotta do, huh? Even if it means that I won't have a social life for the next two years. But I don't have to look forward to it...or at least not right now.
