Journey within journey

It was a cold morning and I was given a shock, not because it was cold morning but because it was a day full of shocks...And I had no idea how and what to say. I didn’t know how to react when I was told that my field instructor was let go from his job. His job was my internship. In normal case scenario, it shouldn't make a difference but it makes a huge difference in my case.

After hours and hours of shock, I am still in shocked mode…oh so I started my internship later than other USC Social Work students. I was promised that I will have a good internship and it will help me grow as an MSW. I stayed at my internship for couple of months but not as an intern but as a girl who acted like an intern but was an observant. I observed what was happening, what was missing, what was needed and what could have been possible, but....but I was mere an observant so I didn't say a word. And today when I was about to meet my field instructor, I was told he is gone which means my one and only chance to move up from an observant to a case worker, or a therapist or a counselor was dead before it even took a shape, it was born...

As a result, I spoke with my seminar professor but the issue remained unsolved until he finds out what is plausible and how to fit us (oh the fun is I am not all alone) in everything. Seriously I will be real mad if they won't let me Graduate because my internship was messed up...ah! Life you never tend to stop surprising me. I love my life and its changes, my life and its surprises – oh dear life, your surprises and changes are not new to me dear...I know you from ages, from my old days!

Oh I will get over you harsh time, I will win over you, One day I will !!!
