Week of Finals & Last day of Technology

The day has come so fast. It's that time of the semester that we end and may meet again. I joined this class late in the semester and I'm happy to say I worked diligently and caught up to the rest of the class. Of course it was not easy but I did it. I'm very happy with the work, skills and programs I learned in this class. It has taught me a lot for my career to become a teacher. I'm excited to be able to use important resources taught from such a good teacher, Professor Ries! I will definitely miss the class and learning technology. Thanks to the class and especially professor for all you have taught me! I will definitely think of you with each program you taught me! Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!

Last week of the semester

Wow! This semester flew by! I can't believe it's already over. It wasn't as hard as I expected. It was a very good first semester spent at Caldwell College. I really did enjoy it. Although, I do look forward to the end of my college years and moving onto my career! I do have to say I have worked pretty hard this semester to get where I'm now. This semester I went to school full-time and maintained 2 jobs. This is the last week of classes. Next week is Finals week. I do look forward to the semester ending and preparing the next couple weeks for the holidays!

Thanksgiving & Black Friday

So a week ago was Thanksgiving. It was a nice and relaxing holiday. Wednesday night, Thanksgiving Eve is the biggest drinking night of the year. There's a bar in town where all the people from the high school go. It was like a class reunion all over again. It was a lot of fun. Me and my boyfriend went. His mom dropped us off and picked us up so we didn't have to worry about rides. After we left, she brought us home and I slept over his house. The next morning I woke up and showered then I spent Thanksgiving at his house. Later on, around 6 pm, Frank and I decided we were going to go to my aunt's where my family was spending Thanksgiving. We had some coffee and dessert. It was a very enjoyable holiday!

On Black Friday, I had off from my job at the daycare. It was nice to have a day off! I decided I wasn't going to go out in the holiday rush of craziness on Black Friday. I thought it was way to crazy for me to go out. Usually when I shop, I enjoy being able to walk around and look for what I want, not fighting for something. Later on around 3 pm, I decided that I was going to go to a couple stores. The few stores I went too were not crazy at all. They had people in it but everyone was shopping like a normal day with just a price discount. It was good for me! I still got to take advantage of Black Friday discounts but also not fight to get through people.

AHHHHHHHHHH! THANK GOD IT'S OVER!

So my Anthropology professor gave us a paper to write on different topics such as Scientology, the Ku Klux Klan, The Manson Family, etc. The paper had to be 4 pages about the beliefs, leaders and history. The next 4 pages needed to be 4 articles found on the topic you chose. For each article, you needed to write a half page summary on the article and the other half page had to be on your reaction to the article. It was a lot of work and research. I finished today, Thursday and its due today. Just as I'm printing out the paper to go to class at 1 o clock, something told me to read my caldwell e-mail. Well when I read my e-mail, there was an e-mail from my professor stating that she wasn't feeling well and wasn't going to make it to class today. UGH thats frustrating knowing that she's not going to be here to collect our papers, but we do have to either e-mail it to her or put it in her mailbox. I'm on my way to putting it in her mailbox after writing this. Well, on the bright side of things, the paper is done and out of my hair and she gave us off next Tuesday for those who are dorm and are going home. Next week will be a week-free of Anthropology. :) Great start to my weekend!

Spring Registration 2012

Yesterday, Monday November 14th, I had class in the morning from 10:00-10:50 then I went to my Social Studies Advisor. I never met him before. He was nice and to the point. We discussed the classes I've taken at my other college before I came to Caldwell College. He gave me a lot of helpful tips on my time spent at Caldwell College. Today, Tuesday, November 15th, I woke up at 8:15 a.m. to make sure I was ready to  register for the Spring semester. It was my first time ever registering for classes at Caldwell. At first, I was registering for my classes and every class I registered for I got a rejection error. Finally, a few minutes later I tried again. I was able to register for 2 of the 4 classes I need for the Spring. When I came to school, I went to the Registrar's Office and they were not able to register me for the other 2 classes either due to needing a waiver to join the class. Now, I'm waiting for my Education Advisor to come in so I can get her to sign my waiver!

weekend

Thursday, I came to school and ran some errands before being in my boyfriend's sister's wedding. It came so quick! Thursday was a little crazy with so many things to do. Thursday night we had the rehearsal dinner and it was very fun and entertaining. Friday morning we woke up very early to get our hair and makeup done and took pictures at her house before the church. After we went to the church then the reception. We had a blast. The wedding was so fun and memorable for all. Friday night we stayed at a hotel so we didn't need to drive far, we got a shuttle from the reception to the hotel. Saturday, we woke up and had brunch and had a little after party at night. It was very relaxing. Sunday we watched football and hung out.

felt like forever

Well this week has been long and rough. Monday I woke up not feeling so good, went to the doctor and they gave me an antibiotic. Even though I wasn't feeling great, I still went to work. Tuesday morning I woke up feeling worse than Monday so I decided to stay home from my classes. I slept majority of the day. I think I was not only sick but also run down. After I woke up, I felt a lot better. Wednesday, I had class in the morning then ended up going to work at the daycare. Today, Thursday, was a long day. I had all my classes plus work till 8: 30. I just finished having some dinner and now I'm going to shower and watch some television.
