Last time we talked I just found an internship. That internship is now finished, well, has been for a few months actually.
It was a busy and interesting experience. Basically I ended up doing two internships, because the other interner got fired and someone had to do it. That all went pretty good. I'm not going to lie and say it was great, because there are things I believe I should've done better and there are some things I was a little unsatisfied about, but then again, nothing in life is perfect and I do have to say I learned a lot from the experience.
One of those things is: never slam a car door shut when your knee is in the way. I did on december 5th and I can tell you a few things about it: 1) it hurt like a motherf*cking b*tch, 2) it can get a little complicated when that pain doesn't go away and you need to travel 90 minutes to get to your internship and you're barely able to walk, 3) you need your knee for literally EVERYTHING, seriously you have no clue of the work that damn thing does until it can't and 4) it takes a damned long time to heal (it still isn't gone today).
I do have to point out that, while this is all very annoying and painful, I can count myself lucky that I didn't break my meniscus. If that were the case I would be in a lot of trouble, even needing knee surgery then. Lucky for me my meniscus was merely not in the right place anymore, causing my knee to be unable to move as it should, which resulted in irritation and infection of the tissue there (aka. more pain). My muscles are still not at the strenght they were at before my unfortunate accident, but at least I can walk, bike and drive my car again (pretty normally).
I have handed in the first draft for my internship report and I am currently working on my thesis. When all this is done I can graduate. I am really looking forward to it! A Master degree in Psychology and not one but two specialisations and good grades and I have to say I'm really proud.
