What did I do this summer?!

2024/8/4 Edited to

... Read moreThis summer marked a significant life change for me as I made the decision to return to education and pursue my Bachelors in Social Work (BSW) at Ball State University. Education in Social Work opens up numerous avenues to support vulnerable populations, including women and children. At college, I will learn critical skills such as creating case plans, conducting assessments, and advocating for clients in diverse settings, from hospitals to schools. The role of a social worker is multifaceted, often requiring teamwork with other professionals, including lawyers and mental health providers. As I embark on this challenging yet fulfilling educational path, I am driven by the desire to make a positive impact in the community. With the excitement of new beginnings, I hope to inspire others on similar journeys and reflect on how summer experiences can lead to transformative changes in our careers and personal lives. Remember, every step you take toward your goals counts, and I can't wait to share my experiences at Ball State with you all!

The amount of pain this has caused me is crazy! The dr. Wrapped it gave me a shot of pain meds and gave me pain meds for home. I go back in 2 weeks to see if it’s fractured. #summerdiary #lemon8contest #sprain #crippled #summer #fracture #yard #brokenfoot #brokefoot #crutches

I decided to change my wiper blades today. With all the rain that summer brings, driving with old windshield wiper blades is very dangerous. For reference, this is for a 2019 Honda Civic.. not sure if other windshield wiper blades are this simple to change. I’m a firm believer in doing things m
