Blogging Inspiration

I have been inspired to begin blogging. First of all because some of my closest friends have been doing it for quite a while and it has been a wonderful way to stay updated with what they are doing in life. Secondly because I have begun moving forward in my career with dietetics and would love to share my thoughts and experiences with those who choose to follow the pathway of nutrition and wellness.

Dietetic Internship Week 2 complete! It has been an interesting transition to go from working at a hospital 40 hours a week to sitting in a classroom for 8 hours a day. I never thought of myself as one to have ADD but I find myself believing it more and more as my legs become restless during class and my mind begins to wander.

For those of you who are not up to date with where I am at in my goal of becoming a Registered Dietitian (RD) I will fill you in.

• I completed my BS at Central Washington University in Food Science and Nutrition with a specialization in Dietetics.
• I spent from August of 2009 to June of 2010 working at St Anthony Hospital in Gig Harbor, WA.
• Accepted in April to the University of New Hampshire to complete my Dietetic Internship

The final step I will need to complete in order to become a RD will be to take my RD exam after the DI completion.

I will continue to update with what is next during my internship. For now it is the weekend and time to head down to Boston for my cultural enrichment.
