I CANT BELIEVE HOW FAR IVE COME!!

graduation is January 2011 ! cant believe its almost here!!

i got the mail today, and there was something from school..i was wondering cause umm im there every day, they dont need to mail me something that they can hand me in class duh! haha. so i open it, and i cried so hard! and they are HAPPY tears. its VERY possible that i might be able to make the graduation ceremony in January if i finish my externship hours before then....i cannot believe that its almost here. i am almost a Medical Assistant ! its been a long hard road. but in the end when i walk across that stage, and (hopefully ill be salutatorian and can make a speech) receive that recognition, i will CRY harder then i have ever cried in my life! it will be the best day (with the exception of my kids being born and my wedding day) of my life...its something that i have struggled hard for and earned, SERIOUSLY earned. and i have gotten all A's. I managed to eek out three High Honors which is a 93% or higher, and four Honors which is 90% to 92.9%. and i have one more mod that im doing now, which i will hopefully get a High Honors for. then i have my externship. i am very blessed that i can work almost any hours for my externship, unlike a lot of my classmates who have jobs and can only work their externship around their job hours. i have to go for my TB test on monday, im interested to see if i was ever exposed to it...would be weird to know if i was huh?! haha. and get that last Hep. B shot. im nervous and excited. i know i will struggle a little but the Lord has bought me through some serious struggles these last few months, and i know He will be holding me tightly now through my work experience and i will learn a lot. my goal at this point is to finish my externship, and then work and study for about a year, and then go in to take my Registered MA or Certified MA test. Ms. Becky just took it, and shes been an MA and RN for almost 12 years, but she said its no joke and it took her about 9 hours (with small breaks in between) to complete it !!! oy!! ive briefly perused the study books at the local library and they are thick and detailed haha...but i know i can do it and i have faith in myself.

christmas is just around the corner! 33 days, 21 hours, 9 minutes and 46 seconds...(but whos counting? lol) when we went to put up our christmas tree, we realized there were pieces missing that belonged to the base so now the tree wont stand! :( haha thats great cause i wanted a new tree this year anyways so now i had a reason! went to walmart and found a reallllly nice one for 35 bucks and it had the lights on it already! cooooool ! so now just have to get mackenzie a pretty "christmas dress", which ive been eyeing these so far....Target has a beautiful red glittery dress and we all know how i like sparkles ... they also have this deep purple dress that i love, although i wanted to go more traditional with red, i might try this one out... ....but then theres this one thats not too fancy, and again isnt the traditional red...but its cute ....or this one that is more traditional and i can soo see how grown up she will look in this one. but then i thought i would venture outta my comfort zone a little, and try websites, and found thei one at Gap, untraditional but cute i think .... looooove this one .... and this one is cute although my niece had one like this so dont wanna copy.  so as you can see im facing quite the dilemma right now, im sure though as the time approaches, i will walk into walmart, target or kmart and find THE dress and ill be so happy! :) getting family picture done too this year. yay..well goodnight everyone.
