hot drinks

Made some hot cocoa this morning when I got up.

I needed some warm comfort...and sugar.

Made some loose leaf tea to sip in class as I worked on my midterm.

We had 10 questions to answer and we were allowed to type as much as we could muster for 3 hours. 

Fasted 3 hours ever.

I was exhausted by the end of it.

And so I made some coffee. 

I could really go for a nap, but I think I should work through it instead.

So I decided that I needed a big to-do list for my last 7 weeks of class...and of course I've added a few things that I could cross off immediately. It's all downhill from here.

I have the rest of October to start preparing for the mess of stuff coming up in November. 

I'm already starting to think about the coming semester, which will bring practicum!

I think I know where I'll be doing my practicum, but I will wait to announce that when it is confirmed. 

Illinois Art Therapy Conference in Chicago this weekend!

Going to see some friends, some concerts, some art therapists, and just have a great time in general.
