Uuugh

I just spent 2 hours of my life typing up a conversation that was had by me and my patient at the Mental Hospital. We have to analyze the whole thing and send it off to our instructor. Seriously... I can not WAIT for this non sense to be over with. I love school, don't get me wrong, but a journal, a conversation play by play, and a list of goals accomplished. Uuuugh. I can find a better way to spend my Friday nights.
