Also, funny that my last blog post was about boredom, because I certainly haven't had the chance to taste that in close to a month. Hence my lack of blogging. Insert other blogging excuses I generally make. Like playing too much Pottermore. I digress.
This week we started our Pro-Staff Training in ResLife. We've been busy busy bees, but it has been wonderfully planned and I've enjoyed many of the activities - particularly prioritizing my "values," reflecting on past mentors, and Myers-Briggs testing (INTJ fo' lyfe!) But seriously. Sidenote: Just remembered the extroverts compared the introverts to cats and I have never been so offended in my life. The gall!
I always appreciate values activities because I find it a good way to refocus: what certain actions can you take this year that contribute to your overall values and what can/do you need to reevaluate to make sure you are staying true to yourself and your end goals.
Also, I just thought of this whole pie analogy I could make, but I'll spare you corny comparisons today. You're welcome.
We also made a map of our mentors. I am definitely thankful for a long list of people who pushed or inspired me - and still do 'til this day - to continue on the path that I am on. Shout out to teddybear and honeybee, because I would be absolutely nowhere without you and you're the best cheerleaders I could ever be blessed with!
I'm excited to see what other adventures will occur during training; tomorrow we're headed to the JD McCarty Center bright and early, and then CAMP CRIMSON on Thursday! Confident it will all be great. And did I mention I'm digging our staff this year? That's always a plus. AND a mere eleven days until Couch Staff is here! STOKED.
