This year has been an amazingly interesting process for me. The very first week of the class I got put on active duty military orders (for a short period furtunately). At the same time, I was driving downtown 3-4 times a week to M.D. Anderson to donate white blood cells for a friend with Leukemia. In short, I was simply overwhelmed.
It is absolutely amazing to believe that a year has flown by since, and that coursework is officially complete now. It has truly been a learning experience. In truth, although I gained insight from my intern plan, I think I truly gained even more from my coursework. This was primarily due to exposure to concepts I was completely unfamiliar with. Through it all, and especially while reflecting on the competetencies the last few weeks, I have come to realize I still have a long way to go. I feel confident that I will pass the certification test, but I see this as very similar to going through undergraduate education courses. I learned more my first week in the classroom than I did in two years of education courses. I feel certain a central office position will ultiomately be exactly the same. If nothing else, I have learned that I know that I don't know. :) I'm out.................
