Winter Break!

I started winter break from school this week. I have three papers to write. Rewrite homework assignments that I have not turned in yet. I need to study for Physics to keep the brain pumping keeping the information fresh for when I return to school on the 3rd.

Work had been a whole other story. I am so confused. I really love my job. I know that I am a great collector and CITI has been really good to me for the last 8. I have a new manager who keeps pushing me beyond my limit, need less to say making me feel that I and not doing my job efficiently. I figure that is what management is all about. The are they push us to new limits and knew height to be better and more munificent at what we do. I am thankful for that. I actually have been a little down about it, but today I realized that it is for my personal development to be better. I feel that my manager has faith in me or she would.t keep pushing. I am thankful for her faith in me. I can do anything that I put my mind into.


I am hoping the best for all you!

IT'S OFFICIAL

As of  November 31, I official applied to the Occupational Program at Spalding University and received an email stating that is was complete and I should hear something back from the no later that February.  I had everything together and ready to drop off to Mrs. Spaulding before my Physics class at 12 PM! Whoop! Whoop! I feel a little relieved. I am so ahead of the game. The application deadline is January 25, 2013,. All I know is that I have my application in and official transcripts mailed out. AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! Breath right? I am thankful that I had everything ready to go. I am eager to keep up this momentum on keep things together!

I am currently taking ENG 102 and Physics is purely math and is not what I expected. I am existed about both classes, exceptionally English. I love learning more about this WONDERFUL world of science and how it is going to work hand and hand with how we live through our "occupation". My English class has been quite interesting because my teacher is fascinated with the Internet and our privacy issues with the internet. She finds it interesting how society has come to be soooo involved with the internet, technology, and how people are losing touch with ourselves and being personable to others. I started think, " Am I one other these people who have to live with technology, after all I do have a blog?" Naww!!!!!! I'm ok, I can live without it. I do find it's interesting how everything we do online is tracked. So people remember what you put on the Internet is PERMANENT, even if you think you have deleted it. It will always live in some one's cloud.

I just wanted to give my fellow friends an update on how I doing and my progress. Looking forward to hearing for some of you and your progress to. Please feel free to comment anytime and just let me know some of your AMAZING news too.

Hoping the best for you!

Applied to the OT program today!

Yay, I submitted my application to the Occupational Therapy program today! Just to assure accuracy I checked it twice OK maybe three times. Check the transcripts, checked the recommendation letters, check the letter showing my observation hours, and then made sure to enclose the $30 money order for the application. I check and tripled checked, when I went in to submit my application to Ms. Spaulding, I think she may have needed to brace herself because I was running towards her like a football player going in for the tackle with all of my excitement. I gave her two hugs and made sure that all my I’s were dotted and my t's were crossed. Should I say it.......? I can breathe after getting all the information turned in. I also requested my transcripts to be mailed to the school so that they're official. I am so thankful that I am here and now I need to learn how to balance school and life again. This is the time that i need to take it easy and really focus on the of balance school, family, and me time, everything takes time, I am ready for the ride. Now that the application is in, I don't think I will hear anything back until Feb 8.

In the meantime, please send good energy my way! Hope the best is going well for all of you out there.

Waiting Period

I am officially complete with nine of my pre-reqsa classes needed in order to apply to the Occupational Therapy program. I have completed Effective Speaking (A), Ethic (B), Abnormal Physiology(A), Development Physiology(A), Developmental Psychology(A), Anatomy(A) plus Lab(A), and Psychology(A) plus Lab(B). Whoop Whoop! I did it. I have Physics and ENG 102 starting the the 26. Must admit that I am excited because in the Physics class there should be more Pre-OT students so that I can start building a network for study groups looking forward to it. The only hold up now is waiting on Spalding to post my grades from my Physiology class and lab to I get request one being sent in with my application. The want everything sent in one packet. I was going to hand deliver it, but the I thought if I sent it return mail with receipt I know would be assured how it. What do you think would be the best, memorial way to submit my application? Suggestions please.....

Hoping the best for all of you our there..

Nashville and EVERYTHING

Good evening fellow friends,
   This is going to be an all in one collaboration. I am just now returning home from my daughter's All Star Cheer competition. I want to talk about my applying to the OT program on the 26th of THIS month along with talking about the rest of my kiddos.

First thing first! It is that time for me to apply to the OT program. I have been waiting for this moment for over a year now. I have had everything complete since LAST SEPTEMBER! I have done my hours of observation along with the letters verifying that I have completed the hours. I completed 20 hours in a SNF and 8 hours in a Peds setting. I was think about getting more hours in at other place; however, I got tied down with school and started slacking off. Then I have my 3 letters of recommendation. I actually had my references fill out the forms 2x, just in case. I have had my TB skin test and my blood work showing that I have had all of my childhood shots. That part is not required yet. I just wanted to go ahead and get it done so that when I am accepted into the program I have them ready to go. I thought my GPA was 3.59, but when I checked my transcript, I actually have a GPA of 3.89. WHOOP WHOOP!!!!!! I will have 9 of the 13 pre-reqs completed by Friday. I am so ready for this. I will keep everyone up to date on what is going on. The only thing that I do not have yet is the interview outfit. I am going shopping for that soon along with making sure my credit is in great shape for any private loans that I may need. I AM READY! I felt like Sponge Bob there for a minute with all that enthusiasm. ;)

Second, my baby, Dyimand, had her second cheer competition today and they won 1st place. WHOOP WHOOP! They are so happy! I am happy to. It's been and emotional ride for us cheer moms. I'm telling you, having all those females together all the time..... it's crazy. When one girl cried, they all did. When one hurt, they all did. Too funny really. Just wanted to take time to congratulate Royal Cheer Xtreme in New Albany, IN.

Lastly, I feel kind of biased by just talking about my cheerleaders, which are the twins (Dyimand and Romier) all the time. I'm going to give the rest of the family some love here. My oldest, Deve'ontay, had his soccer tournament two weeks ago and his U11 team, came in second place. Out of his whole 2 year select soccer player career, I say career because he thinks of himself as a professional, this is the 1st time that his team ever made it to the finals. The team was soooooooo bummed that they came in second, but I said, "Hey this is the 1st time you guys ever made it this far and you should be really proud of yourselves." Telling that to a group of 10-11 year old boys did not work. They looked at me as if I was crazy and kept moping. They got over it the next day. These boys are like brothers because this is the second year that many of them have played together. They have came a long way. I am really proud of them. Again congratulations Kentucky Fire Juniors.

My baby girl will be 1 on Wednesday. Man time goes by so fast! Happy birthday Gem'maica!
