No Call Back?

So I have had 2 interviews with different departments for transfers I put in within the hospital, I have passed all the test, and met everyone in the departments. But for some reason I have still not had a call back for any jobs. I am a like-able person right? Not only have I applied for these transfers but I have had 3 other interviews with jobs outside the hospital, but no call-backs. Whats going on?? Oh and I still haven't recieved my camera charger from uncle Pat so no more pics until I get it, sorry. Will left to go out of town again for work, he left Sunday for San Antonio and should be back late wednesday night. I got my schedule for the next month and of course me and Angela are working thanksgiving by ourselves, while everyone that is full time is getting paid -time- holiday. The new policy that should say that we are supposed to work hasn't come out yet and if I work the holiday while everyone else gets paid time off, I hope the new policy comes out first because it is supposed to state that starting this year who ever works the holiday shifts gets time and a half. Me and angela are only hired for weekend graveyard. On another note, I am doing well in school, got a 95 on my first Majors Bio test, 94 on the second, 93 on the midterm and have another test this week and another test next week! I talked to my advisor for Health and Kines and I only lack 12 classes to graduate with my Bacholers Degree. Not too many. If I took 5 in the spring and 2 in the summer and 5 in the fall I could graduate next december, but I dont think that will happen. I am really trying to get all of my bills paid off while taking 3 or 4 classes at a time, that is more convienent for me than trying to take all of them at once. I kind of jumped around with all of my thoughts so sorry if I have confused anyone. Im at work now until 10 so only 7 more hours! I better get studying for my test.

Waketoberfest


A few weekends ago I went with my mom to Frisco near Dallas to visit with my cousin Melissa and her 5 month old Lucien. We got all dressed up for the Waketoberfest that Melissa and her husband Cary put on every year. First we went to the mall to get make-up down, so I got to entertain Lucien!

Thanks for inviting us out Melissa! We had a blast with you and Lucien! See you soon!

Prayers

Well, I never recieved a call for the Labor and Delivary job... but I did recieve a call this morning for an interview for a job in Surgical Intensive Care Unit. It is tomorrow at 2p.m... so Please Pray for me! I also have a meeting tomorrow with the teaching advisor at UTT. Maybe soon I will pick a major and stick with it til the end. And this weekend we are going up to Dallas to babysit Lucien and go hangout with melissa at the Halloween party. Hopefully Uncle Pat will have already sent me my camera charger. (i doubt it, but maybe next week, at least before thanksgiving arrives.) We just found out that Wills Grandfather past away yesterday, but he said he had been going down hill for a while now and last time he visited, his gpa didnt recognize him. It is kinda crazy since my gma just past 3 months ago today. Please put his family in your prayers. Other than that all is well. I will update this weekend with the news about the job and teaching stuff.

New Job?

Will left last thursday to help out the restaurant in Lafayette, LA for 2 weeks. Its been kinda lonley here, but i'm making it. I am kinda down, thinking about school and where I want to be in a few years. Making a decision seems so hard, ecspecially with something I'll enjoy. But it's about time that I just pick something and go for it with everything I have to finish. After that we will go from there. All I have to do now is come up with the money to pay for UTT. My wellness class I have to have by itself it over a thousand dollars, for 3 hrs! crazy! I appied for a transfer within the hospital (well really like 8 of them over the last few months), and I got a callback last week for a Labor and Delivary Unit Secretary to take a medical terminology test and a customer service test. I went in thursday afternoon and passed all the tests, they said the lady would call me friday or monday but I haven't recieved a phone call yet :/ The hours are monday through friday 11am-7pm! great hours for me, I dont have to get up too early, and I get off in time to still watch greys anatomy on thursdays at 8 and time to spend with the fam! And If I keep the job on the weekends, (just until christmas) I can make enough to go to UTT next semester! It seems like everyone is pressuring me about school and what am I doing and when will I be done, but that is probably just me being insecure about myself. I am learning everyone is just trying to be supportive and I am just frustrating myself. I just need to pick something and put my heart into getting done. Like my sister said, I wont be in this place in my life forever. All I have to do is work hard, pay off my bills and loans, graduate, and move outta the rents house! That is what where I want to be in the next 2-3 years! We Will see I guess!

I completley believe that you are where you are because of your decisions, and so I will not be here too much longer! I am about at that point where I am ready to move out of the rents house, I just need to get a few more bills paid off and school done with! I CANT WAIT! I just have to keep my motivation and determination up to get it done! Hopefully I will get a call soon about this other job...then I can use that for tuition in the spring, save up for tuition for a summer class or 2, and the fall.. who knows If I had the money I could graduate next december! (I doubt it, but its possible) I prob wont graduate until may '10 but It is something to really look foward to! anyway know that I have rambled on about this Pray that I get a phone call soon! =)

Brandons Home!

he already hates my picture taking!


I am so excited! today has been one of the best days I have had in a while! I took my brother to his meeting this morning which took like 6 hours, then we ate lunch with mom, then I decided to add another line to my cell account and got him a new cell phone and I had made him an appointment for a practice GED test! I am such a good mom! Afterward I picked up dinner for everyone, and then went to take my majors biology test and made a 95! WOW! I'm one of those ppl that aren't really that smart so this was awesome news for me! However, I did have to drop my chem class there was just no way I could go on 32 hours without sleep on mondays and I hate chem. SO...... I just have to focus on my world lit class that I keep skipping and I may make all A's this semester! here are some pics after we picked brandon up!

Blah

So today I am still very sick, not only from the common cold that i've had for a week now, but stupid me decided I'd go have a few drinks that led into a very long and sick night ahead. Today I am feeling pretty bad and now remember why I dont drink very often and when I do in small moderation. I am at work again until 6am, another 12 hour shift that I get to work by myself. I'm not complaining, it is actually peaceful, and not too busy! Perfect for a not so great me. Hopefully it will stay that way for 5 more hours. With hurricane Ike here school has just stopped! It is great my Biology test was moved to this next week because the testing center closed early and my physical conditioning class (Aerobics) is canceled for the second week in a row now ( they are housing evacuees there), first for Gustave, and now Ike! YAY... and I finally got a chance to see Will and I was very inebriated (thought this was funny...)

Behaving as though affected by alcohol including exhilaration, and a dumbed or stupefied manner.

I was in a dumbed or stupified manner! ha no mas though im done! I even woke up still puking. Onto a new and better week though! Im going to try to be positive! When I get off Im going to get me a good shower and head to Will's for a good night/morning of sleep until work again at 6pm. Hopefully my camera battery charger will come in the mail this week! =) thats it for now though

Oh and no word yet on if I have to work thanksgiving, but considering they are starting this year to pay time and a half on holidays I might just work it, I did get the weekend of thanksgiving off though! I have a crazy boss!

More School

So I am currently up at the school (just got here really) studying for a bio test tomorrow... not too worried but i will feel much better about it before I leave here. Well I hope I do. I got ahold of my Uncle Pat and he has my camera charger YAY! so Lots of pics to come! I have been sick all week, still am and it sucks. with that trying to go to school study it can get too much. I havent seen Will since Monday I think, minus yesterday when I stopped by his work for 5 minutes to get some cough drops from him. Brandon is coming home Monday! another YAY! but I still havent found another job, sux. Hopefully god has something grand planned for me! Ive been having a rough week. But it seems to be getting a little better. I had to call in to work wed and thurs so I could catch up on my school since ive been sick and man has it been hard. Pray for me tomorrow that I can do well on my test and finish catching up on my homework.

Oh and today I cleaned my car! It needed it bad... And Pray for Lauren, baby Hadley will be here soon! Thats it for now got to get studying or I dont get to see Will!!!!

another day

So I am at work and sick. Who knows what with but I feel awful... I have been getting pretti sick latley these past 6 months. (well more than I normally would) And I have found the reason..... WORK. I am too stressed with my job and I believe that is what is causing me so much sickness. I should probably go to the doctor but I am one of those ppl that just hate to go. I dont get off work for another 10 hours then I get 3 hours of sleep, shower and go to class at 11am until 8 p.m.! yahoooooO!! Yes I am being Sarcastic. But as soon as I get done with tomorrow the rest of the week wont be too bad, except for wed and thursday because I have to work and there is always drama at work. I need to spend tuesday looking for another job! oh and I have a test this week, along with like 6 quizes. pray I make it to next week without getting too sick. Oh and hopefully Ill found out if I am supposed to work on thanksgiving even though I was only hired for the weekends. (another drama event that no one will show me a policy on! and im asking off two months in advance) CRAZINESS... have a better week everyone!

Oh by the way the reason i dont have any pics up is because when i took me camera up to arkansas for my grandmothers funeral i left my battery charger. My uncle kevin couldnt find it at his house and i know i left it before we got an hour away i knew i forgot to pack it and that i left it plugged into the bathroom. My mom said yesterday that someone had the same camera as me, and it is my Uncle Pat so hopefully he may have accedinatlly picked my charger up! i havent taken a picture in 2 months! and i priced the charger and it is $ 70! Hopefully Pat has it or ive got to shell out 70 bucks. just great.
