Diary 07/15

Today we go home! I really am a home body. Though the hotel was nice, my bed is nicer. As to the class session with cohort 9 their were positives and negatives...

The positive is, I was able to meet some really awesome people.

• I follow the blog of April and was able to meet her. She is as nice and smart as her blog implies.
• I really liked Nicole and felt an affinity with her. I'm glad she will be in my classes next semester.
• I found out that Hunt, a member of my "hot topics" group, was a male. I assumed he was a female because his follow up and work were meticullous (we've already discussed my propensity to assume...). Great guy.
• That is just a few of the awesome people from cohort 9, shout outs to Becky, Jetta, Kristi and Jenny.

The negative is I was just as stressed and more during this session then I am at home.
I assumed (again) that the cohort would meet, learn for a few hours, tour Pittsburgh and go home. The reality is we met, learned for hours and hours and hours. There was no time to tour Pittsburgh. There were only small periods of time to meet with our groups to finalize our presentations. There was no time to relax and breathe. More work and new assignments that I was totally uprepared for were given to us. I have gotten few hours of sleep during these four days.

I have to admit that I cried Tuesday evening because I really do not know what I have gotten myself or my friends into. I'm apologize L and P. You know what for...

I'm getting teary again. The next time I blog I hope to feel more optimistic.
