A Week Minus a Day!

Hello dear family and friends!

Well, it's officially a week minus a day until I make my big move to Moorhead! I can hardly believe it. To-do lists are growing by the minute, but I'm trying to make some time for relaxation too (probably more than my mother would like--love you, Mom)! I've been taking advantage of cable TV by watching my favorite shows on Food Network and TLC. Boy, am I going to miss those! But hey, might as well soak in some laziness now because starting July 8th (the official start of my first rotation), Concordia's dietetic internship will have my full attention.

Nothing really new has happened since my last post--although, I did get my tentative orientation schedule and an internet provider figured out! Those are both GREAT things. I just got back from some time away in Wisconsin and now I'm just hitting the ground running on completing my case studies and writing checks left and right (not so fun). 

Right now, I am feeling anxious-excited. I sometimes worry that I will forget to pay an important payment or show up at orientation without some important paperwork. But, I know things will get done. I'm kind of anxious about starting off with my clinical rotation too--I will be in an actual hospital applying all that I've learned in my four years of undergrad. I have had nightmares about over-hydrating a patient or giving them a food they are allergic to. But, I need to remember too that this is a learning experience and I have extremely experienced dietitians by my side. I know that St. Ben's has trained me well!

Anyway, better get back to work!

Until my next post,

Katie
