Back to School!

I’m WAY excited!

Thanks to Obama’s back to school/Education Loans WHATEVER thingy I was able to get ALL my courses paid for: WOOT!

I’m studying Health Information Technology and later towards the end of my Assoc Degree I can even branch off into Medical Transcription/Billing.

I’m so pleased!

This is going to allow me to (finally!) get a gig that is on the cutting edge of what’s needed. Since the health care industry is going to be revamped with an eye on high tech and digitizing information.

What’s not to love?

Today is my first day of classes, and I was so excited about prepping for everything yesterday I totally SPACED on the Lost final season premiere.

O_O

Yah, I KNOW. That’s how serious I am about this LOL! Well I’m sure I can find the episode streaming online somewhere. I had gotten all caught up via Netflix and was looking forward to seeing WHAT ON EARTH (or island) was going to  happen next.

Back to my school stuff:

I’m taking online classes at Kaplan University, and so far I’ve been absolutely impressed with everything! I has walked step by step thru the application process, financial aid, and registration.

My books were delivered to me on time, and the technology and support that’s offered is actually a bit overwhelming. I do know for sure that I’ll be on the forefront of things when I graduate. If I can get a handle on all this tech needed just to take the classes, heck I’m half way ahead of the game!

I’ll keep you posted on my progress. I’m digging this thoroughly!

btw:

Happy Black Future Month! In all the rush and excitement I’d forgotten about that. And while on the subject….

It keeps hitting me at odd random times that OMG we have a Black president! OMG we have two little girls that look like me growing up in the white house. We have an amazing talented, smart and brilliant first lady kicking major butt for Veterans and their families.

Yeah I do get sniffly when those moments hit. I guess its not going to fully sink in until another year has gone by hehe!

Marvelous!

*New to me author: James Rollins. Thanks to James and his Amazon giftie I’ve been getting into his books. I just got a used copy of one, and WOW! the condition looked brand NEW. Not bad for a couple of bucks, I must say. Even the others I got used were in excellent shape. Not that I care THAT much, as long as the printed pages are legible its all good ;p

*Microsoft Ticks Me Off. I use IE to write this blog, since its easier to keep all my other internet doings on firefox etc. (saves time not having to log in and out of apps and services that I use) So like one day BAM! my IE has poofed off my computer. Microsoft likes to yank your stuff away if its not up to date. Then give you a download that takes two days to get sorted and done when you DO go to update. GAH!

*Black Voices. Because I have to use AIM as one of the communication thingies for my classes, I stumbled on that cool site while getting that all set up. Of course its extra sparky because of it being February and all :)

*Gaga for Lady Gaga! I just can’t help it!  This generation’s Madonna? I’m posting my favorite song/vid from her below: Bad Romance

*I’d like to welcome my blog viewers from: Taiwan, Canada, Germany, The Philippines, New Zealand and the Dominican Republic. Thanks for stopping by! (I’m like totally international now hehe!) Thanks ClustrMaps!

and… finally :) OMG like WOW! (Click Here!) This sort of thing just makes my heart sing :D

Happy Holy-Days!

QOTW: What Does The Al-Qaeda Want?

Okies…
I been doing some thinking about this whole Obama scaling up the war in Afghanistan.

The End Result

Been doin a lot of thinking lately. Usually I think a bit, then write a bit and so on. But I’ve been thinking a lot, and writing notsomuch, but also reading a bunch too.

What I’m trying to figure out is really nothing new:

How in the sam hill did we get to where we are now, and what the heck are we going to do about it?

I fear to tip my hand in this post, but you know what, I don’t really care if I offend. The time for sitting idly by and being polite and politically correct has long since passed.

We are at a point in our human history where it comes down to live or die.

I’m pretty sure it wasnt the polite fish who hauled itself out of the ocean and decided to take a stroll on the beach. Just saying, like. Live or die. Live or die. Live or die. Evolve or drown in the sea of forgotten history.

Happy My Birthday

I know I made a promise to certain people that I would write at least one post a month here.

So life happens and things don’t get written. Oop. Oh Well.

So I figured what the heck its my birthday: I might as well use that as an excuse to jump back into the saddle.

Crackie McCrack Goes Too Far

I’ve kept my silence through all of Crackie’s drug induced natterings. But today he just went to far and I had to write SOMETHING.

Oh who is Crackie McCrack you ask? Well since I have a rule not to speak or write his name lemme describe him for ya:

I Blame Obama

For the first time since I moved to the Zona 6 years ago, I got pulled over by the cops.

Yah, I know.

QOTW: How Much You Pay?

I’ve decided to add a new feature to my blog.
Question Of The Week.

This is not to say there will be a weekly question. Or just one question only during any given week. It will be a question that pops up like whenever.

So here goes:
