The course is completely online, including labs, which is awesome! I just have go to a testing center for a proctored midterm and final. Today was the mid-term, and somehow, I manged to pull of a 92%. What?! I was supposed to start in on the next chapter yesterday (according to the professor's proposed schedule), but I spent my time studying for today's test instead. This morning, I studied more, then took the test, and the rest of the day has been spent working out and making and eating dinner (and now blogging, of course).
I am still waiting for the class I originally had scheduled to start next Monday to be dropped. I decided after this chem class, I want to take the rest of the summer off of school. Well, that, and I finally got a job! It isn't my first choice, but I think it will actually work out well. It is in the skilled nursing unit of a local senior community where they also have condos as well as assisted living. I will be in the portion that is basically a nursing home. The pluses include the fact that it is VERY clean (I have been in a lot of nursing homes that have turned me waaaay off wanting to even step foot in them. This one doesn't have the typical urine smell, but rather looks and smells more like a decent hotel), it is only about 10 minutes from my house, and once I get passed training, will only be every other weekend 7a-7p. And...it is a start. With some experience under my belt, it should be much easier to find another job in the future.
Starting off will suck a bit, as I will have to work five 12 hour shifts in 6 days for training, then work again the following weekend, but once I get past that, I'm hoping it will be all good.
Well, I suppose I should stop blogging now and get back to studying! Here's hoping I can do as well on the final next Friday as I did today (though I'm not terribly confident because the material is only getting more and more difficult)! Ugh!
