Me again!

Next week I get to go back to being me again! Wahoo! I can't believe it's been two weeks since I last blogged! I've just been to busy to do anything. I've barely had time to check my email. It's been fun though and definitely a good learning experience. It's great being able to help the students and parents out and answer there questions. Unfortunately, there are some students that we just can't do anything to help them no matter how much we wish we could. But even though I enjoyed filling in for Tanya and Sue, it will be nice going back to being me. I miss the slow pace of the teller line sometimes. I'm sure once I spend a week over there I'll be wanting to come back over here because it's too slow! LOL! But I'll actually have time to blog, read my books, do suduko puzzles and other leisurely things again. Yay!

School and Frustations!

Just a quick note. I've changed my mind about what I'm doing as far as going back to school. As soon as I think I have everything worked out as far as school goes, I find something out or figure something out that completley messes up my whole plan. So here's the new plan:
I'm going to go to school at Tulsa Community College and get my associates.
Barring any complications I'm going to finish up school and get my bachelors at ORU or possibly another university that has a good program but isn't quite as expensive.

Here's my reasoning behind this. Although I get to attend ORU with my tuition paid in full, I can only take up to 6 hours a semester. At that rate it would take years for me to get my degree. Secondly, the general fee which I would have to pay myself is 125.00 and then I'd still have to pay for my books. Now I could take as many hours as possible at ORU and pay the difference of the tuition myself, but its $470.00 per hour!!! So I've decided to attend TCC where it is less expensive and I can take more hours because they offer more night classes and Saturday classes. I might actually be able finish school on time by attending TCC. Also, I was looking on line at TCC and found an estimation of the expenses for getting your associates in the nursing program, and for tuition, fees, books, and supplies for the whole time I would be attending it was about $8600.00!!! That's less than one semester at ORU!!!

What I'm going to do though before I make any final decisions is set up an appointment to see the dean of nursing here at ORU and set up an appointment to see a counselor at TCC. Hopefully I'll get everything figured out after I speak with them.

And I thought this would just be a quick note! LOL!

Identity Crisis

The past three weeks I've been having a major identity crisis, and possibly split personalities! I have been Marcia, Lorie, Susan, Tanya, and Sue on top of being me! Some days I was three people at once and others just two. It has been very exhausting and at times a little confusing! Ok maybe it isn't as major as split personalities or an identity crisis. Truth be told all I was doing was filling in for these people while they were/are on vacation and/or sick. It might be tiring at times and I might not feel like I know what I'm doing occassionally but it has been a good learning experience. Especially being Tanya and Sue because it helps me train for that position which is what I'll be moving up to as soon as there is an opening. Wahoo!
