Hey everyone!! Sorry its been awhile.... Let's see lately. Well let's start with the obvious - class. We had stat for two grueling days this weekend. We all over prepared which ended up being good because Dr. Ringleb was pretty thrilled. We even got out of class early both days! 9-6 is just too long anyway. So far the material has been decently easy. We'll see how it progresses though. We have another six chapters this weekend. The tests are open book and open note so that'll help with having so much in such a short amount of time. Accounting is starting next week too. We'll have that like Tuesday and Thursday 9 to 6. I'm really hoping we get out early from every class. I doubt we will, Dr. Rongleb said our butts weren't conditioned yet, but I'm betting they will be by the end of this!!
AdaptabilityThey have been making us take so many strengths tests lately! Its pretty neat to see how they all compare. So far, I'm pretty compassionate and say that's a strength... we'll see how being a softie suits the business world soon enough I suppose. On this last one my top five were empathy, adapability, communication, activator, and positivity. I wouldn't read too much into each word. With theese tests the words have specififc meanings that you're not used too. On another one love was one of my top ones. So I guess I'm an outspoken bawlbag who loves everyone and likes to get her way. :)
So we have chesnutt (spelling?) trees here. There really should be a public service announcement about the damn things! Do you know how big one of those things are? Well they're like 3 X the size of an acorn or bigger. Anyway, I guess they fall like leaves in the fall... only in clumps! You can be walking - or sitting at a restaurant and crack bam!! They've fallen on the street and bounced around. I havn't seen anyone get hurt yet, but its CLOSE!
I got a card from my Memmie today... 4 letters and counting people.... ;)

I will try to get you hooked up on school supplies.Glad you are finally getting iniated into class. There for a while it looked like a real expensive vacation. Hope they are letting you know all your weaknesses as well. Those are what generally come back to bite. Keep it up and don't be afraid to take a pillow to class. To sit on not nap on!!!! Just think now at Christmas you can really have chesnutts roasting on an open fire.
ReplyDeleteHope those chesnutts don't knock you out...you know me, the nurse and the worry wart...I'm thinking hmmm....head injury!!! Maybe I'll get you a helmet for Christmas!! Love you!
ReplyDeleteOh, and you have to save all your cards and letters u get while you are over there! Memories!
