A new start

Ah, my friends what a journey life has been. As I have been in school for as long as I can remember it was time for me to start a slightly different journey. In the master’s program, I chose there is a clinical component that I am filling with an internship with elderly patients with a (suspected) form of dementia. I must admit this to be difficult as I have just started and there is already so much I know that I do not know.

Oh, how dramatic I could make this story and I know I have a flair for the dramatics but I just feel content in a way. Tired and things feel out of place yet still. I am doing in-person school, I like my internship well enough although it is hard work. I have things to do every day. Things are the way they are supposed to, the way I enjoy instead of being behind my computer screen alone in my room for a year and a half.

The thing is I work in the psychology department as a psychologist. Intern or not. That makes me so proud. I can only look behind me and see all the amazing wonderful things I have accomplished and I can only hope the next ten will bring me even more. Because when I finish this master I will indeed be a psychologist, how amazing is that?

I would love to know if you ever felt like that? What was your “wow, I did that” moment

Lots of love,
Melissa
