The Horizon is Clear

Oh my goodness, the horizon is much clearer than before. Being able to speak with admission counselors from DU's social work program and counseling psych. program proved to be very helpful. It wasn't necessarily the advice they gave me, it was more of being on the campus that gave me a really good perspective. By just being on campus and going into the two respective buildings, I was able to place myself in the shoes of a student in each of the programs. By doing so, I was able to get the "feeling" whether or not I fit into that setting. I didn't really feel much with social work. Talking with an admissions counselor and student was good, but my presence on campus with that perspective didn't tickle any feathers. However, having the perspective of a counseling psych. student gave me quite the good feeling. It's hard to example, it just felt right. It just made sense. It all came together. I realized that this seems to be more of what I want to do, and I was excited about it again. So, as of right now, my future is clearer than it has been for some weeks now. Tomorrow I am visiting CSU, only their social work program, so let's see if my feelings hold up from today. What an exciting journey!
