APPLICATIONS ARE IINNNNNNNN! To apply for internships. Friday was an incredibly, much anticipated and looked forward to day. For anyone who hasn't heard, here is the process:
1. Graduate in August with BS in dietetics. However, the degree doesn't really mean much until steps 2-5 are completed.
2. Get accepted to a Dietetic Internship somewhere in the country. Unfortunately, there are a lot more applicants than there are spots, so... only 50% acceptance rate. And we don't get paid. We pay to do it. And its usually 9-12 months.
3. Do the internship.
4. Take the RD exam
5. Be a registered dietitian!!!
Anywhoozle, it was SUCH a relief to get those sent off. It took such a long time to get everything put together and all my letters perfect and polished and such. Basically its been taking over my life for the past few weeks, and so been affecting Matthew's life, too. All I can say is that Matthew is the sweetest husband ever, for dealing with me being all stressed and worried, and just helping me out however he can.
Now I just wait until April 5 to see if I've been accepted. I've decided I'm not going to think positive, and just assume I won't get accepted, and then it's less of a disappointment when I don't get accepted, and it's just really exciting if I do.
