BIG UPDATES!

I had a GREAT weekend! Saturday afternoon I received my acceptance letter into Physical Therapy!! :) Who HOO! I have been waiting for it to come for weeks! I have been working on getting accepted into PT school for the past several years so it is very rewarding to finally get accepted! I will continue to work at the hospital untill classes begin, but I don't think I"l be able to work full time after that so we shall see what happens. Classes do not begin untill next August (Just weeks after I will be getting married!). It is a three year program, but I will have a masters (or doctorate) after I complete it! The program is currently a masters program, but they are in the process of making it a doctorate program.

Besides etting my acceptance letter our football team now has a winning season! We are 4-3. Which doesnt sound that bad but our only losses are to Texas (#1 in the country), UCLA (#8), and TCU (#18). So I don't really feel too bad about our reccord. Hopefully we will be able to win a couple more before the season is over! We can hope at least.

I should have played the lottery this weekend :) Well, I am gong to fill out my acceptance forms and get those in the mail!

USC moves down!!!

		Harris Poll			USA Today			Computer Rankings
	TEAM	RK	PTS	%	RK	PTS	%	A&H	RB	CM	KM	JS	PW	%	AVG	BCS AVG
1	Texas	2	2728	.9657	2	1493	.9632	25	25	25	25	24	25	1.000	1	.9763
2	USC	1	2806	.9933	1	1540	.9935	24	24	21	22	25	24	.940	2	.9756

The Big 12 has taken over the #1 Spot in the nation! Again, unfortunately it's not OU, but as long as USC is ousted, I dont care who it is! I never thought I would be so happy to see texas win...but USC is NO LONGER #1 ...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Get'em Horns!

I had a really good weekend. Besides the end rusult in the football game of course. I was not expecting to go to the OU/TX game, but my grandmother game me her tickets and said she 'expected me to cheer for her'. What was I suppose to do? I had to go. We had a pretty good time despite loosing. Texas has a very good team this year, but the calls on the field didn't help us out any. I think Texas got the upperhand on that. But, our team did look better on the field. Which is a huge plus. Well, I work tuesday thru thursday this week. I am going to Austin (I know, bad timing) to attend a little family reunin kind of thing with Angelas family. It should be a lot of fun though. (I hope!). Oh, we were given a new tv this weekend too. It is much bigger than the tv I already had, and it is too big to fit into the entertainment center, so I had to put it on th dresser in the bedroom. What a live. Perhaps this will be more of a reason to finally get a new entertainment center....well see. The time for my cruise quickly approaching. I am going on a 10nighter with my parents, brother/sister in law, and of course Angela. We are going to have soooo much fun. I can't wait. Well, time for bed, I have to be up early. Lata!

?

So I have come to the conclusion that I am really bad at updating this...I am considering closing it. Perhaps that would be better. I mean it's not like people really check it daily or even monthly since I'm not updating. I really enjoy reading other peoples blogs. I tend to check many peoples daily. Especially Angela, Joey, Lofin, Schaller(until he closed it again??), Nat, and several others...but I SUCK at updating mine. I mean it’s not like people really need to read my thoughts do they? No.

I would post more often if I had a lot of good news, or exciting things happening all of the time, but the excitement that I get is usually at work (I am liking my job for the most part, for a job that is). And most of that is highly confidential, so I can't talk about it in grave detail, and really shouldn’t put it on the internet for everyone to read. So that really limits me. I have been thinking lately, perhaps I need begin something new that will give me something to do. I am beginning to get board on my days off. I am just so use to being busy that it is a big change. I don’t have the house to keep my busy, or school/studying. that has taken a LOT of time for the past couple years because I was taking a LOT of hours and working very hard to get good grades so I can get into grad school.

Speaking of, I should hear back from OU very soon. I reapplied for PT school. Through an early admit program I SHOULD be guaranteed acceptance for next fall because I think I meet all of the requirements (GPA, GRE scores, all prerequisites completed with an A or B etc). But I haven't heard anything yet. I really expect to hear something this week....next week at the latest. I miss not being in school. And I hope that I will be back in school next year. The break will be very nice, but I'm already getting to the point where I want to get back in...Oh well.

Anyway, In case you didn't know I have been working at Norman Regional Hospital, for the past 2 months in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). The sickest people in the hospital are in our unit. I have some really interesting stories from my patients, but I can’t necessarily share them all...in detail...sorry :). I am still teaching CPR classes for the hospital. Pretty much one class a week. My job in ICU is on Tuesday, Thursday and Fridays from 7am to 7pm. Meaning I go to bed early now. It gives me a LOT of free time. I am taking a class later on this month so that I can begin working in the monitor room (a room with computer screens of certain patients that have a wireless monitor of their heart rhythms, blood pressure etc etc etc. Basically I would monitor patient’s vital signs on a computer and call the nurse if something changed. Lots of reading (for pleasure) from what I hear! I'll keep u posted....assuming I still post.

Hope all is well. Leave me a response and let me know who really reads this thing...perhaps that will have a factor on whether I post more often (or at all?)
