t minus seven days...

UNTIL I START MY INTERNSHIP!!!! woohoo!! In just a few days I will be moving into my studio apartment in Kansas City and getting ready to start the busiest, scariest, and most exciting 6 months of my life. This is going to be a crazy time for me, and an exciting adventure! While I am there, I have a few things I want to check off my list.

1. be the best intern they have ever seen!!! By that I mean to throw myself into this internship and be the best I can be (cheesy, I know) and learn all sorts of Justin Bieber, other kids songs, etc, and step out of my comfort zone and go for it!
2. develop lasting connections with my supervisors at the hospital (and doctors, and nurses...)
3. learn all that I can so that I can start my own program at a hospital one day
4. make awesome friends who want to go see Harry Potter with me! haha
5. be creative with my new apartment furnishings= I'm thinking of a 'Bohemian palace' feel. Lots of pillows, and not much furniture- because furniture takes up too much space in the car....
6. find all the cool, artsy, inexpensive places to visit, shop, eat, explore....
7. bounce ideas off of my friends who are all in their mt internships across the country.
8. find Alabama fans to watch the games with this season!
9. know the bus system like the back of my hand
10. oh, and finish planning my wedding?

There are lots more things I am going to do, and want to do while I am there, but those seem to be the biggest and most important ones.

I can't wait to start working at a children's hospital! It is going to be awesome.
