My Poor, Neglected Baby Blog

I usually post once a month. At least. These past few months, I was studying so hard that I couldn't even think about spelling my own name at the end of the day, much less compiling a compelling blog entry. I've been at Foothill College taking two sections of Human Anatomy and Physiology and a section of Elementary Statistics. This school operates on a quarter system, so the schedule is really intense; I had at least two tests going on in one week. In my last two weeks, I counted up how many lectures I sat through in one week and was very surprised I had kept myself interested. NINE. That's right. NINE lectures in one week. The amazing thing was, well actually there are two amazing things:

1. I really enjoyed the classes and the laboratories. Four out of the five teachers enjoyed experiencing their students learning the material.

2. I ended up pulling straight A's. Statistics always scared me. I hadn't had a math class in almost nine years, and math is one of those things that if you don't use it, you lose it.

So, enough about school. I'm actually on a break and will begin volunteering soon for Santa Clara Valley Medical in their Occupational Therapy out-patient clinic. Their rehabilitation facility is the best in Northern California, so it should be a great experience. I'm also looking into volunteering at a children's hospital for special needs. It will be a growing experience, but I am definitely up for it.

Many things happened over the past couple of months:
1. My fella graduated from graduate school.
2. Mom and Cactus visited NorCal and we tore it up. San Francisco will never be the same again. :)
3. My fella got a great job working for the City of Los Altos.
4. My baby blog turned one year old.
5. I became slightly addicted to MySpace and have reconnected with many old friends.

So, while I am studying for the GRE and volunteering, I will try to be a better blogger.

Just as a side note: I was performing spell check and the dictionary on this site didn't recognize "blog" or "blogger."
