Summer classes

Looks like the two classes I'm taking over the summer are going to be ball-busters. One is totally on-line, but the teacher expects us to log in for discussions at least four times a week. We have a power point presentation due on some illness and we have weekly quizzes (timed - 10 questions in 20 minutes) each Saturday.

The other class is on Tues. nights 6p to 9p, down in the South Miami Campus. (Hello - Will I ever get to see American Idol live? I don't think so, right?)This will be tough. This class involves 3 group projects over the next 16 weeks plus a term paper.

I'm looking forward to the Tuesday class, because there are several people that were accepted into this Anesthesia program with me that are enrolled in this class. Thanks to Facebook - the 40 of us that are starting in August have been in touch with each other and have been 'getting to know' each other for the past few weeks.

It will be exciting to get to meet these new 'friends' this week. Of the 40 of us, about 15 are already emailing and sharing info on classes. Some of them are moving here from out of state for this program.

I'll try to post here when I can - updates with the family, but I don't know what the next few weeks will bring. I'm thinking I'll be very busy.

Oh and by the way - I got an A- in my pharmacology class. Not too bad for a girl who hasn't been in school for 10 years, works part time and has 4 kids to feed, right? The test #2, the one I thought I didn't pass, was graded a 95%!!!!! The last two projects - one term paper and one test - must have been graded an A for each. Grades came out on Friday.

One semester down - eight more to go.
