Reflecting

My program has this huge focus on reflective practice. When we do something, we have to reflect back on it- what was good, what was not, what to do differently next time, etc. etc. Really, my only problem with this is it gets a bit too emotionally involved for me. Honestly, I don't want my academic adviser, who is fairly low on my list of "people I like" to read about how I'm feeling about...well anything really. I am so ridiculously sick of "reflecting" and then having to share it with random faculty members. I find it highly irritating. Anyway, it's the end of the semester, I am completely exhausted after a couple of very challenging weeks at school, I'm starting to prep for finals, and here I find myself, this Friday night, needing to reflect. I decided I couldn't really write- the thought of my adviser reading whatever I had to honestly say was too much. So I got a bit creative and made a powerpoint. I had fun and I'm proud of it, so I thought I'd post it. Here's a bit of the life of me! Oh and...some of you or your children might be in it if I have seen you in the last 6 months or so.

Hi Nicki -
That's awesome! What a great way to reflect. I am glad Jack's boo looks so clean and blue in the pic. It's not looking so nice these days!!
I also liked the poem....so true.
Love Ya - Ash
