(I'm not free from school yet, but I find it fascinating to cheat during work..)Just got back from my outside practicum, and rushed into the office to fulfill my commitment. As I was booting up the computer, this blog thing sneaked into my mind. So, as soon as I got everyone thinking that I'm working delegently, I switched to the wretch blog window.I had to sketch down my unsuccessful/unprofessional morning with patients. Apraxia, paraphasia, and dyslexia may be part of the picture. My mouth was slower than my mind, my mind slower than my voice, and frequently, my mind couldn't decide on what to ask and things just froze. Since that silence was killing me (i.e. with a pair of "supervising" eyes 3 feet away), I embarrassingly started using non-sense fillers like "uh, um, let's see, okay" during the interview. Of course, as "smooth" as things went, my meaningless notes were not a surprise to me. I certainly hope this is a single episode. Despite screwing up on my part, we had the most pleasent patient today.
