Post Bacc Bummer

So I've investigated the post bacc programs in my area - well in the whole state, there are only 2. Either way, I dont qualify. Basically, i've already taken more than two pre-req classes and apparently the program is geared toward people who havent taken any at all. What about people who want to retake the classes?? Or have only a handfull left to take! I think I've already answered my own question, I"m just a bit frustrated with the situation. I would much rather be in an organized program to get it all over with rather than take the courses piece by piece.

Well, its a beautiful day today. I was going to drive to NY to pick up some stuff at the other apartment but I remembered that it's Presidents Day weekend. Traffic is going to be a bitch. Plus I got home late last night from riding the unit so I didnt think it was ultimately worth it. I'm going to plan on going next weekend... I can finally add some furnishing to my apartment here! No more bare white walls :)

On that note, time to take care of laundry, eat lunch, then head out to ride the ambulance for a little while.

This is looking good!

I got the much anticipated email this afternoon: I was granted admission into the University that I had applied to as a non-degree seeking student. Now, I can see about taking my courses :o) Another thought popped into my mind...what about - what about a post-bacc program? I think those are only full-time during the day though.

P.S The book I ordered came in the mail this afternoon: "Wound Care and Management." Guess what I'm doing tonight !! Reading myself to sleeeeppp

National Singles Awareness Day

Lets think about this: Last year this time I was out to dinner with my bf at a high end asian restaurant on south beach. Yea, the kind of place that serves $17 mixed fruity drinks and entrees that are the size of a dime. Very tasty, nonetheless. This year, I'm sitting on my couch, barefoot with my sweats on watching TV. At least I treated myself to an orgasmic facial this afternoon. Boy, I needed that.

I'll be the first to admit, it does kind of spoil the fun when you dont have anyone to be with on V-day. Oh well, such is life.

The weather is starting to get a little nice... I was thinking of taking my new bike out for a spin this eve, but after my royal facial, I didnt think it was a good idea to sweat all over the place and ruin the glamour.

After I finish updating, I think I"m going to download another book. The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks. I keep on hearing worlds of good stuff about that one. I'm in the middle of a book called the Dissapearing Spoon. In a nutshell, it's about....the periodic table. Yes, the periodic table. It has it's colorful parts, but I'm starting to run into a lot of dull pits and it's getting on my nerves.

Thats all I've got. Oh, I managed to temporarily shut down an entire gas station when I accidentally pulled away with the gas nozzle still in my car. Oops. The guy said that because of that, the entire system had to shut down and reboot. My bad. :( I think I was still in a happy coma after that facial/massage and wasnt thinking straight.
