Today we made a return to SSB 102 to debrief our visit to the West Center, finish the second half of Happiness is A Choice You Make by Leland, and continue to work on our Healthy Aging Projects. I really enjoyed our discussion about the individuals we had the privilege to interact with. I think fondly back on my conversations with all of the individuals there, but hearing my peers talk about theirs made me a little sad that I didn’t have enough time to talk to everyone who came by. Regardless, it made me happy that we had such a good turnout and a host of positive experiences. On the side of Grace and I’s Healthy Aging Project, I am just so excited! It’s starting to come together - we have our cover and other preliminary materials drafted, and the fact that this will actually become a work one day fills me with such a warm and fuzzy feeling (an emotion that I have no specifically named but one that has been experienced often throughout this course. So far, we have over half a dozen responses, and we hope to gather more in these upcoming weeks to really flesh out a holistic and diverse set of extraordinary people. Professor Bussell submitted an amazing recipe from her own mother, and graciously baked some for all of us to enjoy - another heartwarming addition to the day. Although I realize our days within the LCS Program are coming to a bittersweet close, I am so excited for all of our HAPs, our presentations at the Healthy Aging Symposium, and our days after where we take and utilize our newly-found knowledge and experiences to enact change beyond the classroom.
