MAY :)

Hello everyone and welcome to the Blog and welcome to May. May has gotten off to a great start so far. My birthday was saturday and my wife decided to throw me a surprise party. Most of my close friends were there and we had a great time enjoying the music and the food. I got some cash, Pirates of the Carribean At Worlds End and an IPOD Classic 80GB. Leading up to my birthday was not easy either as situations occured between my wife, her sister and my sister (who is living with us for the time being). Things seem to have calm down a bit but we are only in the middle of the week and there is plenty of time for things to resurface.

This past week had an exam in Web Design. We had to all create a home page for the Berkeley Cafe. (Note: NO Cafe Exists in the MIdtown Campus) I would have gotten an A on the exam if i didn't forget to put keywords in the Meta section of the webpage. Keywords are a list of descriptive words that when inputted into a Search Engine it will find your website. All in all i got a B+ out of it for someone who has never designed a homepage from scratch before. I am almost finished with the Dreamweaver section of the book and then it will be on to Flash.

This week in Graphical Business Presentation we wrapped up the Powerpoint book and after an exam this week we will start the integration portion of the class. I hope that this part is a bit more challenging than the powerpoint book. I believe that the integration portion will help in learning how to better integrate the various office products within themselves.

Yesterday in the Mind and Body we took a class field trip to the Beth Israel Complimentary Medical Center located at 245 5th Avenue. It is a small but very beautiful location and they belive in working with the patient to discover how to treat whatever is ailing them. Usually you go into a medical office and spend more time in the waiting room than you actually do with the doctor. According to the administrator of the center the average visit with an actual doctor is minimum 15-30 minutes in length. Inside the center not only do they the traditonal doctors but they have chiropracters, accupunturist, nutritionist, a doctor that does Reki and bio-feedback and other "alternative" medicine specialists.

Now it is time for Rebecca's corner. Now that we have entered May the count down begins toward her first birthday. After a scare and the possibility of not getting the hall everything worked out. My mother-in-law has offered to cater the party for us and the other accessories are being handled by my sister. The little one continues to get the hang of walking and is now trying to run. She is able to get a few steps before she falls or senses herself falling and stops running. It will only be a matter of time before we are to the races. Anyway that is all for now and I will see everyone later.
