A long time comming

Hello everyone and welcome back. It has been over month i have published anything and believe me it was one of the roughest months ever. I do want to apologize to all my readers and i hope to be able to post on a more consistent basis. A lot has occurred in my life academically and personally but lets start with academics first.

As we all know class come to a close this week, a week earlier than scheduled do to the moving of offices in the annex to a new location. I spoke to a couple of staff in the annex about the new location and all of them were in agreement that it is a better location for them. So with one week less of classes a lot of projects and finals were pushed up, much to the disdain of students. I had a lot of projects to do and very little time to do them which is part of the reason i haven't posted in a month. In Web Design 1 our project was due the first Saturday in June and when i found out about the shortened semester it only left me a week to put together a whole website. Lucky for me i was able to do it and in the end of it all i got an A on the project and an A for the class so that is one down 4 to go.

In Oral communications i had to do a final speech, which was supposed to be a demonstration speech. It was a speech that we had to demonstrate something whether it was preparing a certain dish or how to do something like tie a tie. My speech was on Reiki which is a Japanese form of healing using hands. Unfortunately for me i had to shorten my speech as i received a phone call on my way to school that my wife was taken to the Hospital with contractions. Luckily it was false labor but they kept her overnight for observation. Both her and the baby are doing fine but he seems unwilling to make his entrance into the world yet.

In Graphical business presentation we had a finally project due that took me all of 45 minutes to complete. Out of all my classes that was the easiest i had this semester which was good because i needed a break from time to time. In mind and body we had a lot of fun going to different locations this semester. I may want to take it again for the heck of it with the same professor. The final weeks had us singing in class and learning about chiropractics. Tomorrow will be our grand wrap up session including door prizes for the class. Knowing the professor everyone will go home with something tomorrow guaranteed.

That pretty much wraps up the semester and personally it has been hard. Between the Braxton Hicks contractions that my wife has been having and having my sister staying with me it was stressful to say the least. All the nonsense that went on in my house caused me to fall behind a bit in class but i caught up nicely. There were times i was contemplating just going to a hotel or something just so i have enough time to work and rest. Definitely this summer i will try and get to the library as often as i can in order to be able to do my work in some quiet. This is important because next semester i am taking Psychology, Macroeconomics, Web Design 2 and Advance Spreadsheets.

Now it is time for Rebecca's corner. The little speed demon turned one during my one month reprieve. She is getting bigger and smarter everyday and she made me a beautiful picture for fathers day. I may have the next Picasso on my hands. I think she cannot wait until her baby brother is here. Anyway that is all for now and i will write soon.
