Summer Off

I finished my last bachelor classes on the 17. Thank goodness. I will have no more classes until I start the program August 26. I ended with a B in both classed. All these B's are affecting my GPA. From what I calculate, if I want to graduate with a GPA over a 3.6, I need to have A's in 85% of my OT classes. So here is to hoping.

I finished my CPR certification last Saturday. All I need to do is to complete my Medical Terminology course. I am hoping to get to it next week. I still have my last Hep B shot to get in October; however, I can load my titre results and other shot records up to school. I need to join my school's OT association and get  shirts that have my schools logo on them. I met two students in K.I.T.E this week that said they will give me their shirts to use. So I am happy that I am saving money on that.

This week I am volunteering for K.I.T.E again. K.I.T.E is a program that my school's enTech offers kids with disabilities throughout the year. I am actually working with two kids. One in the morning and one in the afternoon. My kid in the morning has autism and my afternoon kid has ADHD and sensory processing disorder. Both of the kids are soooo smart and loving. My afternoon kid told me yesterday that he loves me so much and kissed me on my shoulder. Then he asked me, "who is my big girl?" I said, "Me." Then it hit me.... why did I just answer this 6 year old? I was in shock at my  reaction. I just answered this little kid. He is the sweetest kid! I find myself not wanting this week to end. :(

I am hoping the best for all of you out there. If any of you have an instagram and would like to follow my journey, you can make a request to blaquedimondgmailcom.

I miss you guys

I have been seriously slacking the las few weeks. There has not been a thought in my mind that I have forgotten to blog and to keep my fellow friends update. I do have some really food news. I received two Scholarships that will help me pay for my $29,0000 tuition for new year. I felt and am so thankful for that . All together I receive $7200. Just typing it makes me want to sing praises. I am so thankful for that. I have also reached my loan age rate limit so now it have to really get my credit together now. Because I am calculating another $52,000 to finish the program. I am praying that me goal in becoming a Occupational therapist is in god's will.

I just rescued a cane corso for the shelter and I am planning to make him a therapy dog. His first train to be a good citizen is next week! Yey Jimmy. He is 7 and has the best temperament. My 18 month old lays on him. He is as sweet as what ever your favorite sweet thing is.

My classes this session have been soooo fun. I have been able to look at English in a way they want I would not have thought of before with my Textually class. Poetry and smooth writing in same story. AWESOME! Very nice and entertaining. Then my art class, which I thought would be art has turned into a performance class. Boy do I love drama and skits. It has been so fun. Next week is the last class for art and next  Monday the last class for my English class. I have to admit.... I love this journey that I am o ,and I am thankful that I get to experience this with the ones I live, my family.

Hoping the best for all of you out there.
