Rest in Peace Buster Brown


Buster Brown died this morning. He was my parents dog of 13 years. We got him when I was just in the 7th grade. It is a sad day.

This semester is over!

This semester is over. I ended up with 3 A's and 1 B!!! Now my GPA is a 3.5 and rising! I moved out of my parents house in March into a townhouse with a friend of a friends. Then I found out a month later she bought a house. So I went searching for another apartment and packed and moved this weekend. Going up and down stairs is not fun. I moved stuff from my upstairs bedroom downstairs to the trucks, then back upstairs to my new apartment! What a workout! I have two semesters left of school and should graduate in May of 2011~ if I get through this fall. I have some hard classes, but I wanted to get them out of the way so my last semester wasnt going to kill me. I'll post pictures soon of my second new place this year!

Update, school, work

So final grades are in...
Motor Development B
Drugs and Health B
Biomechanics B
Biomechanics Lab A
Nutrition in Performance A

Guess it's ok, i'll take all A's and B's!

On another note. I finally had my interview for the transfer and they just now told me after 2 months that the pay only starts at 7.93! WOW! I am definatley not taking a paycut so now I have to figure out if I am going to accept the OA 3 position I've been offered (which I am thinking I would rather not just because its only 40 cents more and a lot more work, and since I am going to school and that is a priority for me I should keep that my focus). If I don't accept it, then right now my schedule is crazy! I go to school monday through friday mornings then as soon as I get off I go to work from either 1230-5 or 2-5 and then I work 12 hr shifts sat and sun at the hospital. NO DAYS OFF! :( I'm afraid if I don't accept the OA 3 position they will not work with me to try to get at least one day off.

I am now moving in a month earlier, March 1st! YAY! hopefully it will all work out. School has started backon the 11th. I am taking...

Human motor control and Learning (with lab)
Behavioral Health
Care and prevention of Athletic injuries
Public Health Biology

Doesn't sound like a fun semester, and all of them have research papers and presentations and quizes every week over lots of chapter reading. Gonna be sooooo busy. I still having gotten a routine down yet of when I'll have time to study, kinda scares me. And I'm getting sick again. My nose won't stop running, and I have been sneezing ALL day everyday since friday.

Pray everything works out, I need a routine to follow I feel lost, tired, overwhelmed.

sick and school

Been sick with a stomach virus twice this past week, now I have a really bad cold or sinus infection. Was awake all night last night with bad drainage, and can't breath through my nose. School is finally over this semester and now I'm sick. Can't even enjoy the time off. Grades are not posted yet, but I think I made:

Motor Development A
Biomechanics B+
Biomechanics Lab A
Drugs and Health B+ (screwed up my A on the final :/ )
Nutrition in Performance A

Still no more information about transfering to another position at the hospital. I call in sick wednesday from work and glad I did, heard everyone was turning on each other and making each other cry... so much drama. Well going to get back to work, i'll update more later

Transfer and Finals

At my current job I do anything the 5 managers come and ask me to do, on top of answering 400 calls a day and scheduling patient appointments. We do have down times where we get on the internet, do puzzels, or just do homework. I heard one co-worker (on a day I was off) took a picture of a doctor sleeping at his desk and posted it on facebook while at work, well needless to say a scan went through on every computer and everyone in the clinic got a verbal write up for using the internet for nonapproved sites such as yahoo. I was so mad, I do my job plus whatever the managers ask me to do and it obviously doesn't affect me job. Needless to say I can no longer put up with doing everyone elses stuff, so I talked with my director Thursday and told her I would like to transfer. I just put in today for a position at Health information Management (Medical Records) for an evening shift M-F 2pm-10pm hoping that I'll be able to go to school in the mornings, still be full time and get benefits, and be off on the weekends to start going to church! I really hope it all works out and goes well for me to be able to do this. So 2010 will be a whole new year for me, new job, moving outta the rents house... hopefully I'M GONNA LOVE IT!

Finals are this next week! If I make a 90 on my Motor Development Final I'll get an A. If I make a 92 on my Drugs and Health test I'll get an A, Nurtition I need a 70 for an A, and Biomechanics I'll have a B. So with much studying and prayers Ill hopefully end up with 3 A's and a B. Or possible 1 A and 3 B's. Wish me luck.
