The Beginning of the End
It's finally the beginning of my last semester and I am getting really excited to graduate. This semester is a lot of independent work for us so I feel that it is really preparing us for the real world when you don't have someone checking up on you every little step but rather wants your complete project. We only have one class that we have to physically attend and that is our financial management class. We've only had a couple of classes and I've heard that it's hard, but I'm hoping for the best even though we have to cram everything into 9 weeks so we can be done before we all have to work at our clinical.
Cristin and I have been planning and working on our senior project and I think it is going to come together rather nicely for us. We are planning on educating people about what HIM is and trying to attract future students for the program. We have been e-mailing professors at the university and will be contacting local high schools in order to see if we are able to reach the most possible students. So far we have had a good response rate and we hope to be adding more presentations to our schedule.
Other than that I just need to start really concentrating on researching companies and sending out my resume to them. I think I would really like to end up working where I am doing my clinical but I know that I always need to have some backup plans in the works.
