[Lab 1- March 15: Empathy and Stigma]
The theme of our First PE Lab was "Empathy" and to learn about how it can be a tool for overcoming stigma we did an activity where we made Spectacles Of and For Ourselves. As our prof pulled out the pipe cleaners, I knew what was afoot --we were going to make pipe cleaner glasses for ourselves!! And what fun we had!! =)

"PE" Lab?
I haven't taken any sort of "PE" course since high school... Nah! I mean "PE" as in Psychoemotional!
I mentioned in my last post that one of recent events that motivated me to start up this blog again was a lab course. It's the lab component of my Psychoemotional Determinants of Occupation course. We are required to make a lab portfolio that includes:
So that's why I will be making posts in reference to my lab course. However, this blog is not turning into something that is strictly for my lab portfolio. I will continue to reflect on other ideas that are floating around in my mind and it will remain an outlet for me to think and share ideas about Life. This basically means that I should be doing More blogging. At least once a week. I night need to think about a way to organize this class based entries though...
I mentioned in my last post that one of recent events that motivated me to start up this blog again was a lab course. It's the lab component of my Psychoemotional Determinants of Occupation course. We are required to make a lab portfolio that includes:
- journal-style reflections
- additional research and resources
- other material that demonstrates the application and consideration of lab content outside of lab time
- and will be useful in future practice

Revisiting a Question to Myself
It's been a Long while since I last posted on this blog.
My lack of blogging doesn't mean I have stopped actively reflecting (during fieldwork placement, in life and about myself) to improve my OT lens. I've found that I've actually written a few unfinished posts throughout my placement and I just never got around to finishing my thoughts and posting them. I hope that I will find the time to do that later this weekend.
For now, I'd like to revisit the question that I had asked myself when I initially started this blog and add on other new ideas I have for the purposes of this virtual outlet of mine:
Why a Blog?
