I am back...

So, a LOT has been going on lately. I know I have been away for some time. it has been a very hectic few months. First off, I have a new job. Yeah!! Last week was my first week at the new job and it was fine. It is definitely going to take some getting used to, but I think it will be a good fit in the long run. I am working as the outpatient social worker for a hospital clinic in the area. I will be working with clinic patients and also with the residents who work at the clinic. Everyone there is very nice and welcoming. it is a bit further from home than my previous job (about 30 minutes each way), but in the DFW metroplex, that is not so bad.

My sister graduated with her bachelors degree last week, so we went to austin to help her celebrate. Congrats, Nadia!! I am very proud of her, she has already found a job that seems to be a good fit for her also.

Other than all that, school starts next week and i am already feeling overwhelmed. I am teaching a course again this summer and taking 2 classes of my own, while also learning this new job. Very busy. also, my big exam to continue in the PhD program is at the end of the summer, so I need to prepare for that also.

I need to get back to the studying, but just wanted to give a quick update.
