You gotta be wise

Listen as your day unfolds, challenge what the future holds, try and keep your head up to the sky. Lovers, they may cause you tears, go ahead release your fears, stand up and be counted, don't be ashamed to cry. You gotta be, You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold, You gotta be wiser, you gotta be hard, You gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm, You gotta stay together

Ronald Reagan

"Abraham Lincoln recognized that we could not survive as a free land when some men could decide that others were not fit to be free and should therefore be slaves. Likewise, we cannot survive as a free nation when some men decide that others are not fit to live and should be abandoned to abortion or infanticide."

Same first day as always

So. The first day of this semester has left all of us feeling the same as the first day of every other first semester; Pissed, irritated, and confused.

They have YET AGAIN raised parking (which used to be free, went up to 110, was lowered down to 75 after a massive freakout on our parts, and is now up to 85. yes. 85 dollars a MONTH.), they raised tuition, we now have to PAY for our power points. 10 cents a sheet, and power points are between 15 and 20 pages usually. per power point. per class. PLUS clinical paperwork we are going to have to print out. I am going to get more (the right kind) or ink for our printer and figure out how to connect my laptop to that printer to print out at least the clinical paper work. Or actually, maybe I will just type it all up and email it, since every instructor in the past has requested me type it. haha. Well, EVERYTHING at Crouse is computerized. Upstate just need to catch up. haha. I hope hope REALLY hope I have my clinicals at Crouse. Upstate makes me want to stab myself in the Jugular. It is so far behind. NOTHING is computerized, well for us, at least, and their med rooms are SOOO small. and their IV machines are so damn confusing, mostly because they are so different from Crouse's...which are the ones we spent 2 semesters using and practicing on...so we get to upstate and spend 6 weeks getting used to those, and then you go back to Crouse. haha. AND if you have a sucky instructor like I did last year, none of your patients at upstate will even have an IV, so you are STILL completely confused at the end of the semester. ha. go Amber. not.

29 minutes until I have to leave to take Madalyn to daycare. Gracie loved VBS yesterday with my mom and Karina (or so facebook says), lol.

We have been staying up to late. First it was SYTYCD, now it's America's got talent. Which honestly, everyone on their SUCKS.

I am bringing left over Risotto for lunch. yummm. I have got to stop eating like crap. I am doing my slim fast again, at least for breakfast. and it's school time. So, I am busting out my cheerios like I have every semester, to munch on during class. lol. My scrambled eggs, with cheese, tomatoes, bbq sauce and mayonnaise on toast just aren't to healthy, and I eat them like 2x a day. haha.


Time to go find out what we are doing today. we have all decided, not to try and figure out what is going on this week. Just find out what time we have to be at school, and go from there. It is to frustrating with trying to figure out what is going on this week.

I felt bad yesterday. We were all hanging out in the office areas on the couches bitching about this and that, and there was a girl sitting there, she was like how far you guys into it? I was like 280. she's like oh. I am applying now, so I don't know what that means. Whoops. we prolly scared away a future applicantee. is that a word? blogger says no. oh well.  Crouse is so hard to get into anyways that most ppl have to apply a million times, anyways. I was one of the only ones I know to get in when I applied and not get put on a waiting list. or have to apply multiple times. lol. Altho, I did apply a million times before hand, but pulled my app each time. I applied when Gracie was a baby, and every semester after that until I finally went when she was 3 and Madalyn was 1. haha.

ok. i am really going this time.

au revoir.
