Well, first and foremost, I will be headed to Kansas in August to begin the journey of completing my music therapy internship! After that, I will prepare and take the music therapy board exam.
I am beyond excited (and also a little nervous) about moving to KS for my internship! I'm really looking forward to working in a school setting and being surrounded by music therapy all day every day. My dream has always been to work as a music therapist in a school setting, and this is just one step closer to making that dream a reality!! But...the idea of living four hours from home kinda makes me a like anxious. However, I know that everything will be just fine.
-------------------
As far as life after my internship and board exam, I'm not quite sure what will be next. It could be a music therapy job, it could be grad school, it could be some type of ministry within the Church, or it could be something completely different that God has not revealed yet. And while the idea of not knowing at all where I will be after the spring makes me a little freaked out, I know that God will lead me exactly where I need to be.
-------------------
Oh yes, the other side of things: my faith life. Obviously if you follow me on social media, you know that my faith is SUPER important to me...and it will continue to be this way. My faith keeps me grounded, because without Him, I would not be here. None of us would. So yeah, my amazing love for God and the Church isn't going anywhere, and I hope to quickly find a church family and become involved at a local parish.
-------------------
Sooo...the only thing I can tell you with 100% assurance about my future is that I'm moving to KS! :) LOL! But truly, it is a dream come true to soon be heading off to my dream internship. Four years ago I would have never imagined the life that I have right now! I have a busy summer of working music camps, packing up my apartment, visiting family/friends, heading to AZ for the ESA IC Convention, and taking an online class...and then I will be headed to start the next chapter in my book of life.
