I am very happy that I only have 2 weeks of school left at this point. I am so incredibly burnt out right now and I really need a break. I have really learned my lesson not to save all of my hard classes for last though! I have had nothing but hard classes for the last 6 months and my brain is just tired of all of this. I want to enjoy what will be left of my summer and have fun without worrying about school every day!

Last weekend I had my graduation and my party the next day.  Everything went really well!  I was happy to walk across the stage and have my family cheering for me because they are proud of my accomplishment.  I felt really good that day.  The next day we had a party at my mom’s house and she bought a ton of food and almost everyone that I invited actually showed up so I was really stoked about that.  The really terrible thing that happened was my stomach decided to start acting up so I could not eat any of the great food that I had been waiting for!!  I was pretty upset and it sucked because I had to put on a smile and try to have a good time although my stomach was killing me.  My mom in law had bought me a dress to wear for the occasion and I felt like I actually looked pretty good that day, but people could tell that there was something wrong with me.  I still need to get the thank you cards out to everyone who showed up, because I felt really good that people came not only to eat but to tell me that they were proud of me!

I cannot begin to describe how horrible taking speech class is online.  I have to do all of my speeches via webcam and people from my class watch them.  I feel so stupid when I am recording my speeches for class that it makes things even harder.  This week we have to do a demonstration piece, and I think that I am going to construct a salad or something, but I’m not sure yet.  Instead of a webcam I have been using my regular hard drive camcorder and it has worked out alright so far!  I just look forward to finishing this class so I can have it over and done with!

Sometimes it is hard for me to get motivated to do my schoolwork. I really hate the classes that I am in right now, even though I am learning quite a bit. I am currently enrolled in Accounting 2 and Microeconomics. Last semester I took the beginning halves of these classes, and I got a B in both of them, but it was not a fun ride!

I am so looking forward to my summer vacation. I am an online student so we do not get spring break which was really horrible because I could have used a few days off to glue my brain back together from the last semester, but I had to start the next semester the day after those classes ended! After I am done with my homework every night my brain feels like it may have turned into a mashed potato substance. I hope this will all be worth it when I have a cushy high paying job!!

Studying for me half of the time

I can’t stop thinking about the fact that I am going to finally graduate from college with my Associate’s degree in business this summer. I am really excited because I have worked really hard to get to this point. I am thinking heavily about going on to get my Bachelor’s degree, but I want to graduate with my Associate’s degree before I even worry about it. I filled out my FASFA for this year in case I decided to go through with it. I am just so excited, and I am going to have a party for graduating, I hope people actually come!

I decided that since I am graduating this summer that I want to lose some weight and fast. I am going to start my new diet on Monday and that includes my diet pills and a lot of walking/running on my treadmill. I want to be able to wear a cute dress to my graduation, and so this is my goal!

I was wondering how hard it would be to acquire a job in the line of admin careers when I get out of college, but it does not look as hard as I thought it would be. There are a lot of helpful resources online that will help me to find the perfect job to do in order to get into the career that I really want to.

My hubby got me a nice little flash drive for Christmas so that I can do work between my laptop and my desktop without having too much work to do to switch the work over. I am happy because sometimes I like to sit on the laptop to do some of my more lengthy assignments. I do not have to go back to school until January 8th though!

I am not sure why I hate this class that I am in more than I have hated any classes that I have taken so far. It seems like all of the questions that are asked to us students are irrelevant to anything.

We have a “group” project that is due every single Wednesday, but since my instructor thinks that online groups are too hard to connect with we have to do the project solo and there are always between 7-10 pages of questions to fill out about a business that we had to make up. You can tell that the questions were made for a group and the worksheets were made so that they could be evenly distributed between the group members.

There is no book for the class, we were supposed to save all of our marketing books for this class, but there is no way I could sit on that much moneys worth of books for that long so I have been depending on Google to give me the answers.

Anyways, I just had to rant a little about this class because it has been driving me nuts since I started it two weeks ago!

I am always on the lookout for a new place to live. I started looking at different states lately because when I graduate from college I am guessing that I will have to move to a different state in order to make good money. I have looked a lot at Wilmington NC real estate because it looks like a beautiful place to live.
