I've been on 'spring break' since February 11th. :<

I'm not sure if actual spring break for me will include a Monday. Doubt it.

Explain that for me again. I forgot.

Large class, practical exam, my name's near the end of the list so I don't have to go until March 11th to take my exam. And it's my only class on campus. :U

[Rimi]

What's on the practical.

[Saiga]

It's first aid and cpr stuff. It's been so long since I've had class that I kind of forgot what we actually have to do. :<

Shouldn't be too hard, though. I'm not worried about it.

[Rimi]

Oooh the kiss of life. Nice @Saiga!!! :U

On creepy American Red Cross funded training dummies. Yay fun

Second quarter starts today. Yaaay two more classes.

Spring break any day now..

"Spring break" ends Monday.

Classes start back tomorrow. Summer went by too fast. Only taking either 12 or 13 hours this semester but it's easily my worst schedule yet. Time isn't bad, but I don't wanna go to school 4 days a week. :v

Good luck, Saiga.

It's time like this that i wish I was in school again (but knowing what I know now, of course ) 

 

Work has been hectic and I have too much migraine lately. And the fact that I'm complaining too much means I'm getting old .

 

The only consolation is that I still have my job, and I still make progress in strength / speed / bone-density training. Please forgive my showiness. Training is a huge source of happiness to me .

 

New milestone:  (very fast and hard punches into a steel i-beam connected to a wall. Warning: don't try at home, of course.)

 

Edit: seeing @Kaio-ken post makes me feel even older, since I'm old even by graduate student standards. Aiyah.

And I've spent all summer doing my dissertation...I am so old.

 

A fellow Ring Bearer I see... http://transform.to/...f/lotrgrad.html Master or PhD?

I'm so glad I graduated. Never going back.

[Saiga]

Thanks Joe.

I'm so glad I graduated. Never going back.

Not like you really have a reason to now. Work experience means more than degree level in the long run and you've set yourself up pretty well.

I graduated too. Not like it really matters about that degree though. All transfer credits to me.

Oh hadn't caught this. It was just for my Masters, still playing around with the idea of doing the Phd but it wouldn't really help me professionally and 4 years is a long time to dedicate myself to something (or longer if I do it part time as planned). Maybe I'll do it later in life. Also really like the LOTR thing. My supervisor has far too many similarities to Gandalf now that I think about it....

Just got my schedule together for next semester. Gotta register on Tuesday.

 

I go to school everyday for an hour. My commute there and back is longer than I have to be in class. Awesome.
