So I graduated. Oh, with honors! This girl is Magna Sum Laude! I'm actually a few days behind posting about it, but I did it ( Read more... )

School = Done! I earned 1015/1000 points in my last class. I am that good.
Work = Done! (For the week)
Off to Atlanta for a wedding, and then up to Lake Erie for family vacation.

Ah life! How great it is!

Zumba class kicked my ass. I am nowhere near as coordinated as I used to be. But, I was able to pick up on steps decently quickly. I talked to the instructor after class to see if she thought I could handle the modern class and the answer was yes. Of course, I don't think I'll be able to make class this Thursday, but we'll see ( Read more... )

It seems to be the inevitable question asked after brief introductions. It's a safe question, one that will give us a few more topic ideas. My response is, "I work for a computer company. We make healthcare software and I help install it. I'm also in school with only one month left. I'll graduate with a degree in Business Information Systems ( Read more... )

I'm currently in a double-countdown. I'm counting down the days till I move (45 officially) and the days till I'm done with school (135 officialy). Naturally I've been busy prepping for both, although I've been doing more schoolwork than move prep. I managed to squeak out of my Web Development class with an A-. I'm still waiting for my Creative ( Read more... )

SubTitle: I want it all and I want it now! Or, WTF should I do with my money?In 3 days, I will own my car. I didn't originally have a plan for how fast I would pay it off, but a year into owning it, I talked to a friend who was paying double on his car. I thought he was crazy, until he explained that he would own his car sooner. What a great ( Read more... )

I went to the gym for the first time in a few weeks and it was great. My times were horrible, but it felt good to just be there. I have various things scheduled during this week, so I might not be able to go consistently this week, but I'm going to try. Hopefully I can get back to an hour of cardio. I'm going to Idaho next week, so it'll be ( Read more... )

My creative blog juices don't really exist today. Or this week for that matter. Work and school have effectively drained me, making any normal conversations with me difficult. Sleep becomes even more of a necessity than it ever was, but I go to bed later than usual because I'm doing homework, and when I wake up I'm super tense and drained. I'm ( Read more... )
