Well, I got my capstone class application submitted, and it was approved. I did not doubt that it was approved because I have everything in place I need to be enrolled in the class. Well, almost everything. I have taken all of my prerequisite classes that I must have to be in the capstone class. Now all I need is an idea. I will start formulating that this week. My advisor and my professor are both available for help with that. I will need to do several rough drafts of that project idea before April 1st. First, I need to reread the capstone handbook and then rewatch the presentation Dr. Caro did on the capstone project. I can do that soon.
I know that I have said this before, but while there are several different kinds of projects I can do, I will need to find something to do within the borders of my workplace. As much as I would like to do an internship somewhere, considering that this is our only chance for hands on experience in this program, I cannot afford to take seven weeks away from work. They would be unpaid, and I am not prepared for that. However, that does not mean that I will not make the most of this opportunity. We have three different communities where I work: independent living, assisted living and memory care. Since I have worked most in independent living, I am going to begin thinking about something to do in assisted living or memory care. I will also work on something for IL, but I would rather it be something in one of the other communities. Thinking ahead, I feel that will make me more marketable if I get a job somewhere outside of Kisco.
We will see how it goes. I am looking forward to this challenge and am ready for it!
