Well this is the last term that I will be doing an official internship for the degree. I have really been trying to make an effort to meet up with local practitioners in the field and work with them for my internship. I have done this so that I might be able to see what it looks like to live and work in this field out in the "real" world and not just in the classroom. For this term, I tried to get in touch with old professors that were working in the field, but none of them had anything going on, and were unable to take on an intern. However, one of them gave me the names of some other practitioners. I contacted them, and all of them responded positively, for which I am extremely grateful.
I am really looking forward to this semester, as it seems that I will have a variety of work going on, and different aspects of the "Conflict Resolution" world. I know that I will be helping with facilitation, and presentations, and if I am lucky maybe some mediations. The winter break was much needed to be able to get some rest, and rejuvenation so that I can stay busy and keep working on getting things done for the degree. I have enjoyed it thus far, and look forward to it being over, so that I might be able to get out there and work with people out there, but not have to worry about the burden of the grade. So here is to looking forward for this term.
