I am a perfectionist and have always had an utter disdain for failure. This has kept me from trying a lot of things in my life. Having finally accepted that failure is a requirement for a fulfilling and diversified life experience, I have created this year long project in an attempt to become comfortable with the idea of failing. This blog chronicles my journey with failure.

Day 276: A Missed Meeting
I'm taking a field practicum class this semester. Basically, I have to volunteer a lot in the field that I want to work in. That field is clinical psychology. Unfortunately, as an undergrad, there is very little I can do in the field. Which makes sense--you don't want someone untrained trying to treat someone with a disorder.
So one of the things that I can do is attend support groups, such as ANAD and FED (Families of Eating Disorders). I was going to go to ANAD today, but . . .
I skipped it. I wanted to go, but I'm going out of town tomorrow for 4 days, and so I needed to do some school stuff and pack and such.
Soooo, I am not making much progress in terms of volunteering. :-( But there's only so much I can do really.
