So, our final is tomorrow... my last final for this semester. It is hard to believe that this was my last semester of ultrasound classes. Next semester will be my last semester at Lincoln! WOW... time really goes fly by. I remember my first semester at Lincoln. I was so anxious and nervous because I had not been to school in so many years. I was also dreading thinking about how long it would take until I was finished. Now looking back, it seems like it just flew by. Now I can start looking towards a brighter future. I pray everyday that when I graduate I will find a job right away. I need a job right away, both for myself and for my husband. I need it cause I am so ready to start my career and to be earning a living again. I want it for my husband so he can stop working so hard. For the past almost two and half years, my husband has worked so hard to support us while I am in school. I could have not done it without him.

Well, I missed class today as I am not feeling too well. So I figure I can at least try to get some book work done. I would prefer to have that out of the way so I can focus on my upcoming social sciences essay. I am already trying to think of a topic for that essay. I am not sure yet what to write about. I am hoping in class we will talk about some different options.

So... I moved at the beginning of this month and I still do not have internet at home! When you don't have internet you realize how much you are missing it! It is so hard for me to do my homework, to help my friend plan her wedding, to keep up with my emails, and to do my volunteering work with Doctors Giving Back. My internet is supposed to be up this Friday... so hopefully AT&T keeps to their word THIS time.

We have our social sciences essay coming up... and I am interested to hear more about this topic. I am wondering what the topic of my essay will be. We shall see....

“No friend like music when the heart is broken to mend its wings and give it flight again.”

I absolutely LOVE this picture and that quote! I have always felt a special connection to music. Music has always been the healer of my soul. When I am feeling any type of emotion, music is there to support that emotion. Whenever I felt the need to tune something out, music has been there to help me. Music has a way to lift my spirits like nothing else. Much of me feels I owe my sanity to music. It has done wonders for me!

I have been thinking since last week's class about what I want to write about in my Humanities topic essay. I am really stumped as to what I want my topic to be. The essay is due in a couple weeks.... so I have some time. I will really have to start thinking about topics that mean something to me. We'll see what I come up with.

C - Cresecent Moon and Star, a common symbol for Islam
O - Peace Sign
E - Male and Female symbols (equal rights for both)
X - Star of David; Judism
I - Pagan/ Wiccan symbol; Air, Earth, Fire, Water and Human Spirit all connected by a circle
S - Chinese symbol "Yin and Yang"; Yin = darkness and womanhood, Yang = masculinity ~ Everyone has both good and darkness in them
T - Crucifixion of Jesus Christ


In writing the BioPoem about myself, it got me thinking about the "Coexist" bumper sticker that I like so much. I just love the meaning behind this sticker which is:

"People, no matter who they are, or where they are from, or what they believe, can find a way to live together in peace and harmony!"


I love that this sticker represents peace between all people no matter what they believe in, who they are, or where they are from, just as the statement above states. I think even if you do not believe in or agree with what one or some of these symbols stand for, all people should still be able to live in this world together peacefully.

The first day of class - Written Communication 82B! We had an introduction of what 82B will be all about today. My mind is already starting to think about all the papers I will be writing, but first things first... I have to take another look at the first chapters in our book The College Writer for our first assignments. These shouldn't be too hard as I did the same thing in Written Communication 82A. I just need to review and summarize again.

That's all for now!
