it's been a long week! but i have a healthy car again!
The last time I posted was about the base that James and I will be going to next September after I am done with school and we get married. Since that, lots has been going on...sorta
I am just taking 13 credits (I am now thanking myself for dropping a 5 credit class I didn't even need now) but it is a very busy 13 credits - busy, not hard. The couple circuit training routines for the kickboxing class that I drew out went over nice with everybody. Seemed like they enjoy the boxing style training rather than the "traditional" kickboxing class. I have to think of a few more routines for the instructor so we can go over a few things. I am doing this because the system for finding exercise science grad students to fill in p.e. classes is messed up so bad! (long story...)
In the fitness lab, we got to spend time practicing on classmates so it wouldn't be such a shock when we have real clients coming in. Public speaking and non-infectious disease both went as usual.
I had a great Friday though! Worked in the computer lab for a few hours. Then in the athletic training room for 5 hours. I love it there! It sounds so wierd but I do! I was able to drive the golf cart thing around, filled up water coolers, and dropped stuff off for the football players. Then made about 30 ice bags, performed a few ice massages, and more ultrasounds and stim this week than last week. Then one of the assistant trainers and I got to hang out for 2 hours doing absolutely nothing since there was just nobody that needed help.
Drove home, spent time with my family, WAS planning to go back Sunday night BUT had some car trouble. The transimission light starting flashing on Friday but it was off driving back. BTW, my speedometer has been having issues, sometimes it's right, sometimes it's 10 mph slower or about 30 mph faster than actual. So anyway, I figured it was no big deal with the tranny since it drives and shifts normally. Started my way back and my check engine light came on so I pulled over and was idling at 50. Yes...50. So yeah, I freaked out cause that car is my baby! lol Called back to my grandparents house since most of my family who knows lots about cars was still there and they said bring it back, it should be fine. So I did, got it into the garage and it was starting to make the first off-noise I had heard. So I stayed the night and took it to a Japanese Auto garage and had them check it out. It was what I thought it was! Something minor that just started a domino effect of turning on warning lights all becuase there was a faulty connection between the tranny and the speedometer. It didn't cost much to fix since over half was 2 hours of labor. I wasn't able to get it back yesterday since I had to go back to school by 4 (fitness lab) so I drove back my grandpas Buick. :-D Surprisenly, those cars have some get up and go! So my grandparents are going to drive the Honda back and we are going to switch cars and have some lunch tomorrow.
Sorry for the long post, if you made it through, congrats! lol
