My first week of classes to become a Health Claims Specialist.

I am physically & mentally exhausted, and may I say that Medical Terminology is a *itch!

My body wasted NO time in letting me know I'm too old to be carrying around an additional fifteen pounds of books on my back. My knees told me by Tuesday, that if I didn't stop, I wouldn't HAVE any knees by the time I finish 9months from now.

Back to studying, see you around occaisionally fellas.:)

    Nice work, Ms. Cfrizz. Those months will fly by in no time. Good job.


    Here's a little helpful tip to possibly keep in mind now that you're back in school again:

    Well ....... okay ..... so maybe that wasn't the MOST helpful tip ever, but ........... Have some fun while you're completing your studies ! You'll do well. :)

    I didn't qualify for any grants. So now when it's all over I've got a loan to pay off.:(

    Well, I just pulled off the impossible by doing a double-blind comparison all by myself, purely by virtue of the fact that I completely and stupidly forgot what I did last. I guess that getting old does have its advantages after all :D

    Wow, in 2010 they still make you carry books around? Figured everything'd be digital by now. :)
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.
