I've been waiting for my grades to be posted for the past week and they've been there! For how long I don't know, but there's a notification that pops up saying new grades have been posted. It didn't notify me, so I didn't think of checking inside the class page on WebCT. AAAAHHHH. Two finals still haven't been posted and I haven't gotten a mark back for the paper I handed in Monday. I hope that prof is distracted because I SOOOOOO did it wrong! It's a decent research paper, but I followed the outline in the textbook as opposed to the outline in the class handout. Oops. I knew I should have checked that first! Oh well...
I am so beyond caring. I rocked four of my five classes this semester, and those were actually the ones I was interested in. Surprising how that works eh?
I applied to the college today (deadline is tomorrow). I'm registering for Communication Arts--the first year is all the same, regardless of whether you're on track for broadcasting, print, or PR. I was originally thinking of broadcasting and that's been the "jump up and smack me" sign, but I'm also thinking I'd REALLY like to refine my writing--which would be why I'm blogging like a madwoman. I'm trying to get in at LEAST 30 minutes of writing a day.
I'm still working on the whole "discipline" resolution I made a year ago New Year's. Can you say "work in progress"?? :) I'm doing far better with that though. Being crazy busy definitely helps with time management and prioritizing the things I think are important. Like walking or going to the gym. Like reading for pleasure. :) Like writing. Like not eating sunflower seeds! That was a hard one today because I got my monthly blood work done and usually after getting bloodwork done I buy a bag of spitz as a treat--high in phosphorus, sucks calcium from your bones, nasty nasty (like all dark colas, except rootbeer)--but I'm really trying to watch what I eat and eat better. So I made a cheese quesadilla instead (that was my treat, high dairy is also a no-no). Ohhhhh but I love cheese! I actually have a recipe for potatoes that uses gruyere and I REALLY want to make that tonight after work!
Ok, I could write for ages, so I should probably shut for now. :) I have a couple of videos I'll add when I'm not at work and actually have YouTube access.

It is SNOWING.
Let me remind you that it is the END of April. May starts in 4 days. Something is wrong here. I don't like snow during the winter...I like it even less in the spring!
What else? Well, let's see. I've got a pain in my ribs. No, not a pain, that's wrong. More like a breathing pressure. It's not in my chest, so I know it's not anything respiratory--and while I've been around a lot of people who've been in Mexico recently, they don't have any symptoms and they're all nurses, so handwashing is a major priority, with or without the pandemic threat. It's not scary enough for me to see my doctor and I kind of think it's because I've been sitting so much--studying, writing papers, work, etc. So what I really need to do is a lot of stretching and a lot of building up of the core muscles to counteract all the sitting I've been doing!
I had plans to hand in a paper today (I did send in the powerpoint slides for the presentation this morning), but there's SO MUCH I want to write about. I'm at work now and I should be able to spend a bit of time finishing it up. This prof has been SO LENIENT with me, it's been awesome. Helps that I rocked his class last semester and spent the whole time talking to him. :)
I have to do my taxes this week. I'm off Tuesday and Wednesday (as far as I know), so will do them up then. Yeah yeah I don't usually leave it 'til the last day (sorry Uncle Doug!) but the past two months have been so busy it hasn't been very high on my priority list!
I've picked up a ton of shifts in July & August (and I'm sure quite a few will pop up in May & June), so I'm not particularly stressed about finding a "real job," but at the same time, I feel like I'm putting pressure on myself to DO something. *sigh* I kind of think this rib pain might be a little bit of anxiety building up--what with writing this paper, working, personal stuff, blah blah blah--and I need to bleed this anxiety off. Well, not bleed literally. :) But get rid of it! That's what the May Workout Challenge is for! :)
Right, so "real job." This is a direction I've really been praying about. If I stay in Lethbridge, I'd like to work at the college or the university and I'm actually going to talk to a lady in HR about working at the university, so that's good. But some other ummm educational opportunities seem to be presenting themselves, so I think I'm going to pursue that too to see if God keeps that door open or shuts it. It wasn't even a door I was looking for, but fell through anyway...so that leads me to think that God is pointing me in that direction. It combines music and ministry, which would be awesome.
