Its been an extremely busy month for me, from the past couple weeks running from 8 AM to 3AM designing in my studio, to squeezing in time in the mornings for volunteering at the Kitchen. Despite the busyness, it's been fun. I'm hoping that I'll continue to find time in this busy semester to keep up a weekly visit to the clinic.
My most recent trip to the Kitchen had me performing "secretarial duties". Being a more behind-the-scenes type person (Gold in color for those that get this), I'm not especially great at making phone calls to patients; however, for my first time I think I did pretty well - especially with the occasional person who hadn't quite mastered the English language (or at least that was my impression). At least it was an opportunity to practice my person to person skills, which is always a good thing.
As spring break looms ahead, I'm hoping to squeeze in a few more hours at the clinic. It's been a fun year so far living and volunteering - even if admittedly I'm not especially interested in the medical field - in Summit Park, and I think as my Architectural design project wraps up before spring break, I'll be able to devote more time to my volunteering.
