Week 3

today i am questioning what i am doing....last night i sat in class, discussing the reading we had to do, and thought, "i feel old." and then i thought, "jeez, they have no idea what the real world is like." we were discussing organizational change and how to make change happen. a lot of what we discussed i felt like i have been seeing in my everyday work for the last year- what causes change, how can it be effective, how can it be ineffective- and the biggest thing was how to help people through the process. this is when i started to feel old or bitter or something. the people in my group (all new grad students just out of college) went on and on about how change is easy and people will follow. this is when i said, "not really." and that is when they all looked at me like i was the old lady with 10 heads. i get that i am working on a different degree and i have a different set of experiences and that i was once as young and optimistic as they all are, but really what am i doing?

on the other hand...i just found out that my student loans from undergrad (yes i am still paying) have been deferred....who knew? they would do that without a request...
