I started back at Elmhurst again last night. I am taking a Capstone class that the I/O psychology program developed so all of us that never finished up the internship portion of the program can now do so and earn our masters degrees. I am happy to report that my cohort is the only one with multiple members in the class, three of us. Everyone else was from different cohorts. We were almost the oldest cohort, but there is one person from the 2002 (we are 2004), so I don't feel so bad anymore.
I had a massive headache by the end of class. It's going to be a rough 3 months, doing something I have no interest in anymore. I was comforted by my cohort mate sitting next to me, say it's been so long as our professor spat out terms for yesteryear. Yes it's been a long time and I don't do anything in the realm anymore so it's going to be a little crazy getting back into this. My eye is on the prize, my M.A. which will be useful possibly if I decided to go on to RN, I could do a bridge program and get my MSN. That's a big maybe however, but at least I will be done and get my family off my back.
It was really weird being back on campus. I haven't been there since graduation in 2006, it was so damn hot and I was 20 weeks pregnant with Logan. I spent 6 years of my life going there, and four years living as an undergrad there so it was weird to be back. A lot has changed, they renamed a bunch of buildings, my sorority is no more, and a lot of the psychology department has moved on since I was there. So anyway hold on tight cause this is going to be hell on earth for the next 3 months for me.
