Summer 2008: Final Thoughts

Summer 2008: Final Thoughts

I do not know why I worry about these workshops so much. I do not like some of the preparation and I really do not like the process of getting there and developing the relationships at the beginning. But once I start developing relationships, it all works and I love it. There is a great sense of accomplishment when you feel like you helped yearbook kids and advisers be better prepared to do a better book. I also like feeling I prepared sessions that were good, better then I have ever done them.
