The Semester is Done

Well I survived my first semester of the Social Work Program!!! I have loved it and am so glad I chose this major. I have learned so much and I know this coming semester I am going to learn a lot as well. Everyone asks me what I want to go into in the field of Social Work and as of right now it's either Child Protective Services or Foster Care/Adoption! This may change depending on if I like my internships or not :) 

As of right now I have 1 more semester of just classes and then my last 2 semesters I just have my internship and 1-3 classes with it. Steve and I will graduate exactly 1 year from now!!!! Steve got an internship offer down in Orem, UT in April with a company called RPM drivers. We are not sure if we want to move down there yet because it would cost a lot to move down there and then come back up for the next semester. We called Steve's parents yesterday seeing if we could live with them in April while we do internships, if we find them, and they said yes!! We are now looking for Social Work and Business Marketing Internships in the Snohomish Area (1/2 hour north of Seattle)! It would be so much cheaper to live over there that way we wouldn't have to bring all of our furniture, kitchen stuff, etc. Please pray for us to find something over there in April!! 

I am anxious to find out my final grades for this semester as some of my teachers haven't put in all my grades yet! I am just waiting on 1 class and for my teacher to put the remainder of the homework in. For sure I know I got a 92.8% in my Ethics and Values class, a 90.84% in my Practice Individuals class, an 85.23 in my Human Behavior in the Social Environment class (I really didn't like the scoring in this class, we had 4 tests, 2 papers, and 1 presentation- I really wish we had some homework so we could boost up our grades),  a 89.86% in my Criminology class (wish she would have just rounded to a 90%), and I got a 99.31 in my Doctrine and Covenants class. This semester I took 17 credits and it definitely didn't feel like it. This next semester I will be taking 15 credits and my goal is to get straight A's!
