2008-2009 School Year

I shall be a very active young lady this upcoming academic year. I have to be a worker bee in order to feel fully productive. To much time on my hands makes me restless and unproductive. As I have announced not to long ago, I was admitted into the nursing program. Which means, on Mon and Wed I will go to the hospital to pick a patient and care plans, of course I still have other classes to attend earlier in the day. Then on Tue and Thur, I go in to the hospital from 6:30 am - 12:30 pm.

As President of African American Council, I would love to establish more influential events based on the black culture for this school year. There is a lot to be done, especially because many of our active member graduated, and the club is limited on officers (just me and another young lady hold positions, and working on overdrive to get things moving). So if anyone has connections, and would like to share the knowledge, please let me know.

As Coordinator of the tour guide program, my full time employment position, I need to make sure I can carry the torch from the last coordinator. After working with her as an "under study", I know there is a lot to be done, but I CAN DO IT! I just need to work 12 hrs per week, which isn't so bad.

On Saturdays, I will continue to tutor middle school and high school student on Math, Science, and English. Although the program itself pays me (this is my second job), these opportunities are offered to these young adults for free. It gives them the chance to see what potential health careers are available, along with preparation for college. I know this is a great program, because I was apart of it for 5 years, and now it is my turn to pass on the knowledge. I love working with them, and cannot wait to see them all again in the fall.

Since I am a seasonal worker for Macy's (this is my 3rd job), I will periodically work during the fall, but mostly on winter and summer breaks. I love the people I work with, and the discount doesn't hurt either. Having this job will come in handy when I need to buy all my professional attire.

As far as my social life go..I shall see what happens. I am usually good at squeezing things, but I'm not expecting a whole lot. I know this doesn't make it easy to establish a relationship, especially being at an all girls college. However, my time is energy, and I cannot waste energy on unnecessary investments.

Anyway, this is my upcoming year in a nutshell.
