preparathon

So I am approaching my 6 month music therapy internship.

How do you prepare for something like that??

Well I asked my internship supervisor if there is anything specific I need to know, and she suggested I have a good knowledge of children's songs. umm... there are only a billion of those. Luckily I've had multiple practica in this area and worked at Camp Twin Lakes for two summers where I played at countless meals
. That should give me a good basis. I probably should brush up on my Justin Bieber pretty soon...

Another thing I am working on for this is
ASL or American Sign Language!!! woo!! I am teaching it to myself via a "Sign of the day" thing. Today's sign: good. Infinitely important in the music therapy world when many of our clients communicate through sign language. Maybe I will work up to colors soon....

Another thing about moving to Missouri that I have to prepare for: finding a place to live. Luckily there is this nifty little website www.roommates.com that can match you up with someone else based on your profiles, kinda like an online dating sight. Let's hope that works out so I don't have to take over an on-call room. Pretty sure the medical staff would frown on that.

Well I have sufficiently procrastinated long enough this afternoon. Those songs for the guitar proficiency aren't gonna learn themselves!!
