The end is here

Well, I'm hoping that this will not be my last post but starting a new term I don't know if I will get the time to keep up with my posts, I will try my hardest. Writing posts helps me to let off some steam or talk about the great things that happen in my life. I really enjoy writing my thoughts down. I really don't know how much they help with my writing but I really enjoy them. I will see if my next two classes allow the time to post more blogs and if they do I most certainly will be posting more. To all my classmates, what a wonderful bunch of people you guys really are. I hope that I will have more classes with you but if I don't I truly wish you the best on your studies and life, if there is anything I can do for you get in contact with me and I will help if I can. To Cassie, I know I told you this before but thank you so much for being a wonderful professor, I would have to say you are my favorite so far since I being going to Kaplan, you help every single one of us in one way or another. You realized that everyone that is going to Kaplan knew how to write and that makes me feel not so stupid. Thank you so much. To everyone have a wonderful Christmas and life, hope to see yous again.

The end of another term

Wow did this term do so fast or what. I was so unprepaired this term for some reason and now I'm down in Hawaii and have to work on two final papers. I know this is my fault but I didn't think it would go this fast and with this term being at the holidays my life gets a little crazy but I know I will get them done and hopefully pass both class. My other class this term was the worst for me. It is a honors course for A&P II and the professor is hard for me to deal with. I can't seem to do anything the way she wants it done, which really stinks because it makes my grade low, which lowers my GPA. So when I registered for my next term I told them I don't want to be in honors. I want to do my very best but I don't want to mess up everything by taking classes that I can't get good grades in. My advisor told me even if I'm not in honors classes and get a GPA of 3.5 I will still graduate with honors, so that makes me wonder why I ever took honor classes to begin with. Well thats all I have to complain about for now, so till next time.

My trip

Well I'm down to two more days till I get on a airplane and fly to Hawaii. I will be going there to help my sister. She is having a baby on the 11th and they need someone to watch my niece while they are having my new nephew. I can't wait to meet my new nephew and to see my adorable niece. But I have to be honest I can't wait to see Hawaii the most. I always wanted to go there and here I go. The thing that has me alittle scared is the airplane ride. I was on a airplane before but never for 8 hours and by myself. My sister told me to take 2 sleeping pills when I get on the plane in Georgia. My thing is I'm afraid that I might not know when we land and be stuck on the plane.LOL Well I have to go and start to pack. I will be packing shorts, thats crazy since I live in PA and it is like 30 degrees here today.

What happened to 2009

I'm sure everyone feels the way I do, What happened to 2009. Today is December 1 already. I can remember when I was young and all I wanted was the years to go fast so that I would be big enough to do what I want, Boy if only I could turn back time. Don't get me wrong I love my life now I just wish I would of did thinks abit different. Now when I look back I think to myself, Heather why didn't you go to school right after high school and you could be in the career that you want by now, instead I'm 34 years old and becoming a MA, I have not worked in medical at all, so all of this is new to me and I think allot of my classmates have been in the medical field for a couple of years and they don't realize that not everyone has. So I not only have to keep my grades up in school I have to study harder to get to the point where allot of my classmates are already at. The good news is I finally took the first steps so it won't be long till I also know what I'm talking about. LOL

Thanksgiving

I can't believe that it is thanksgiving this week. I would really like to know where the year went. It will soon be 2010. I always wonder what the next year will bring me. I always hope it nothing or good things. For me it seems that if January is bad then it makes for a very long year. But whats the saying, Think positive and positive things happen, I always try to do this but sometimes it don't help much, like me passing A&P II LOL. But any how I want to wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving and eat lots of turkey

Thanksgiving

Three Rivers

I know this really don't have much to do with school but I had to say something about it. I just got done watch the TV show Three Rivers(it is about a transplant hospital in Pittsburgh PA) and it was about a man that was in a car accident and he was already suffering from Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis(ALS) or it is called Lou Gehrig's disease, and he met a guy waiting for a heart. So he decided that he wanted to be taking off life support so that he can donate his heart to this man. At first the doctor was against his decision but then the doctor sat down and talked with the man and he agreed with the man. I know that sure don't happen to much but to make a long story short, it really made me think why is there so much red tape when someone with a disease that is life ending with no chance of recover, want to end there life? I know this is a touchy subject and everyone has a opinion but I just know that if I was the one with the disease I would choose the something the man on the show did. I know it is a TV show but this happens everyday in real life. The man ended up saving 7 people with the organs he donated. It is so amazing what one person can do in death. It was a very emotional show. I know this isn't a top of discussion but I like these shows. Till next time Peace Out

APA format

I know by the 4th term at school I should know this by now and I usually figure it out but I know there is only one way to do APA format, but I think ever professor at Kaplan grades different when it comes to APA formatting. I look under extra! extra! for unit 4 and the examples helped me out allot but in my A&P II class I might of missed a period here or there and got allot of points taking off and I know I did it the same way before but didn't get that many points taking way. Don't get me wrong, if I do something wrong I should get points taking way but Why is every professor different? Thank god we have a fair professor for comp II. I will surprise everyone and one day I will be a APA wizard. LOL

I want to wish everyone luck in your final projects for all your classes. I hope we all end up with 100%.
Till next time, Peace Out

Unit 3- online student

Hello Everyone

This is my four term here a Kaplan but I can remember the very first day like it was yesterday. I was so nervous and I thought to myself "what did I get myself into". But now on my fourth term I really like the fact of being a online student. Sure we have set times we have to be in seminars but if we can't make it we can do option 2. Also we can o our school anywhere we are, as long as we have Internet access. An example of this for me is, In December my sister is having a baby and she already has a daughter. So her and my brother in law needs someone to stay with Izzy when they have the baby, so Aunt Heather to the rescue. I get to spend 10 days in Hawaii in December. But I know I will still be able to get school done, they have two computers. I won't have to miss anything. There is some down falls like, you just can't raise your hand and ask a question and in my A&P I class our finale project was a group project, now that was very challenge. We got though it, I even got a passing grade. But in the e I truly love online class and I want to wish everyone luck in their studies.
