Almost done my very first semester!

Wow, I can't believe it! I'm almost done my very first semester of college & loved it! Now only tons left to go, lol. I'm averaging roughly a 3.4 GPA, not too shabby, though I'd perfer it be higher.

Now, let me reflect on what i've learned this semester; about the world, about life & about myself.

Human Body has given me an awesome oppurtunity to get a base feel of life within the body. It amazes me! Cannot wait to take A&P! I can now explain processes in the body and it's so exciting!

Ethics broadened my views on the world and made me more tolerable of others' opinions. I appreciate the fact that i can now make a sound, concious descion about the issues in the world around me.

English was good, loved the papers I did research on, it taught me a lot. I took AP English 12 my senior year, so I already knew what we were doing in my college class; easy A :)

I learned that I need to be able to figure a situation out quickly, and rationally. That has paid off tremendously! I had quite a few ups and downs this semester, and it helped me persevere.

I learned that I need to apply myself a little more, study harder & recognize that I'm doing a good job. A 3.4 GPA isn't anything to sneeze at :)

What's in store for me next? Summer semester of course! A&P I and intro to psychology! Yay!!

Birth Doula Class Begins

My Birth Doula class started today & it's great. Very relaxed online atmosphere that's chaulk full of amazing knowlege. I can tell already that I'm really going to enjoy Aviva Institute.

I bought myself this tshirt to get me started on my Doula journey! It's cute, fits well & is a great color.

When I complete this course & earn my certification, I shall be one step closer to becoming a midwife :) only years & years of college left, hahaha.

I'm all signed up for summer & fall classes! Anatomy & Physiology I and Intro to Psych this summer and A & P II, Algebra II and English Composition II in the Fall! Someone at the college told me today that I needed English Comp II anyways, that it wasn't an elective... I'm pretty sure it's not required? I don't know, if it is then okay, if it's not then great, there's my English elective.

UNH turned down my application, but it came as a relief. Now I don't have to make a choice. I can continue on my path towards getting my pre reqs done for GB's nursing program.
