And one day, the two of them needed a caption for their easter post on Instagram showing the \u201choppy easter bunny card.\u201d I suggested \u2018hop off the presses, \u2019 which was a slam dunk IMO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n\n\n\nHeather and I also had a check-in with Judy about the practicum, which led to a good talk between Heather and me about transparency and communication especially considering my ongoing mental health struggle. It felt good to talk that openly with Heather. An employer needs to trust their workers and vice versa, just like any other type of relationship.
<\/p>\n\n\n\nThe last thing that happened to me is that I almost choked to death at my desk. I was fine but, Marcel sure got a scare. It turns out you shouldn’t multitask while drinking water. If you don\u2019t pay attention while drinking, the flap protecting water from entering the trachea (epiglottis) might not close, and water could get in. That’s what the saying ‘went down the wrong pipe’ means. The intense coughing got all the water out of my trachea, but I still called my nurse mom to make sure I didn’t give myself pneumonia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everything about my future feels unsure, but I take comfort in knowing I\u2019m not alone in this. All eighteen of my idea 2021 classmates are in the same boat, and we can support each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
See you next week,
Naomi
