After a month of Not Blogging, we are still busy!

Thank god for kt coming back! because while she was looking at all those fancy machines, I was here entering welcome cards and typing my fingers off. Since last I blogged I have joined the BryanLGH Student Government. The student Government was set up because we needed it for accreditation, which reminds me... BryanLGH College of Health Sciences is Accredited! As of early this month we received conformation. So anyway, my life's been pretty crazy outside of work as well. My roommates Sister had a baby so he's been going crazy, My sister is due in just 8 days, but I've rushed to the hospital twice thinking she was going to have it but both times it just happened to be back pain, I'm glad I was there to help out though. We are all so excited, and cant wait for the new baby (even though they have no name for the little guy yet (Elvis has become the nick name)). I got to go to my nieces Second birthday party, I got her a sweatshirt that she didn't seem too impressed by. And now that we are nearing the holiday season the big question on every ones mind is, What will Riley be for Halloween??? Well It is up in the air still, but it is getting narrowed down. Since I can't seem to get the pictures on the blog, you can go to these sites to see my ideas- first is the lead singer from prodigy in the fire starter video

Happy Blog

I don't know about anyone else, but I am sick of hearing about the stock market and presidential campaign! I did vote, however I had to do it absentee since I am registered in my hometown. But proudly I did vote. I am glad I did, even though I really didn't know who to choose.

On an even happier note, I spent this fall break in Peoria Illinois with some really close friends. We toured the Caterpillar plant where they make the D-9,10, and 11 (if you don't know, those are the really big Caterpillar machines, as shown below). My friend just got a job at the plant in Peoria (thus the reason we went there), as he will be one heck of a engineer there!
We also went to Par-A-Dice casino (I love the name, how creative!) which was also a pretty good time. I witnessed two people right beside me win $80 and $60 on the penny slots! Lucky! The most I won was about $7 but hey, if you ever go to a casino and want a small amount of money to go far, play the penny slots! I spent only $30 and it lasted me over 2 hours!
Until next time...

It's been a while...

Sorry it has been quite some time since I last blogged. If anyone ever heard BryanLGH College of Health Sciences was easy, they are definatley wrong. I have been quite busy with studying! This coming week I have 5 quizzes for only 3 classes, then the next week, I have tests in all 3 classes. Everyone is getting ready for fall break I assume. Oh well, it is really fun finally learning about things that I am completely interested in, and knowing that I will use the information in the future is a help as well. I am so glad I made my decision to come to BryanLGH for vascular sonography!!!
I have also been getting involved in campus activities such as action for students and student government association, along with participating in the diabetes and cancer walks! I actually know some nursing students, which is always fun because we don't ever get to interact otherwise.
As Riley said, we have been very busy in the office now that Jenna is gone...so if any of you out there want an admissions position apply now!!!! It is a good time, truly! The people we work with make it awesome!
I will be writing again soon!!
