Its that time of the year again. I cant believe the time is almost here. Andy is excited to get back, and Justin is ready to start his very first year of preschool. AND... for the first time since Ryan was born, I am going back too! Wow, it is wierd to say that! I am taking a health class called Drug use and Abuse. This is an elective that I picked hoping that it looks good when the time comes to get into the dental hygiene program. If I picked some other random elective, they might take someone with more science/health etc... classes, so I am trying to be the one who has the good classes in my record to get into the dental program! I am nervous about finding the time for everything...but I wil ljust need to be more organized and follow the schedule that I come up with to get everything done. Dicipline- haha...I have never had that, but I can always try!! Maybe Jake will let me get some school clothes too!
I got my motivation for school back when I brought the boys to get their teeth cleaned last week. The dentist asked if I was still going to school for hygiene, and I said yes. But I also told him I was not sure if I could do it because I didnt want to put the kids in daycare for the summers. He told me how flexible the dental field was, and that they have temps, and that its no big deal to take a month or two off for summers. I could also work nights for the summers and cut back on hours and everything. It was nice to hear that- I was so relieved. It looks like my childhood dream of going to this school to become the tooth fairy, might just happen after all :)
Good for you! I give you a lot of credit. I'm sure you will do great:)
ReplyDeleteYay Krissy!!!! I am so proud of you!
ReplyDeleteWhere are you taking the class at? I took a class called the exact same thing at Normandale. Pretty interesting.
So I am a little slow on replying to you here :) I am getting bad at getting on the computer like I used to. I am taking this class at Normandale too. Did you like it? It is one of the 2 electives that I need for the program. I thought this class would be a good choice out of some of the others...like drawing :) Even though I would like that one better, I thought the people who decide who get in and who doesnt, would like to see this class instead of something like art! :) What did you think of it? Hard, a joke, boring??? Seems pretty interesting to me though.
ReplyDeleteIf you have the same guy I did, it's kind of...well, weird. He actually showed us examples of different drugs (I learned what crack looks like). If I remember right, it was a lot of reading and testing on the chapter...his lectures didn't have much to do with the readings. I think. Hard to remember...I took it a long time ago. I thought it was pretty interesting though.
