This WOULD Be My Luck!!

A lot has happened since my last post and I have not enjoyed practically any of it. So far 2011 has not been a good year for me and there is not a whole lot to look forward to anymore either. You know how I was going to move to Colorado this year? Yeah, well that fell through. Turns out they have an open admission policy but you have to apply for spots in the MLT programme and take an Accuplacer test to get in. They judge you by points and those with the highest points get in! Well I am missing two Anatomy & Physiology classes, a Chemistry class, and a Medical Terminology class in order to have the most points to make me compeditive AND I have yet to take that test & it all would have been needed to be done by 31 March to be compeditive to start in late August. Impossible for me!! So it looks like I'm stuck here for another year. I can attend Wichita State University for a year to get those classes done as well as more to transfer towards my Biochemistry degree at Colorado University. After the year here going to school FOR FREE and recieving housing money I can properly go to Arapahoe College in Littleton for the MLT and after I'm done as I work I can attend Colorado University all on loans. I may even enroll in a graduate school right after that on a loan & then just pay off all the loans once I'm done! I figured people will also be more interested in hiring an MLY without a 4 year degree who is currently seeking a 4 year degree!! I can't wait though to move to Colorado. Chad and I have talked about buying a house in Loveland and the future things... all hypothetical of course... :)
On other notice... I have been sick with insane asthma attacks pretty much all day. I went to the doctor and recieved a breathing treatment etc but turns out I'm not sick... my asthma has just gotten very bad. So I'm on a secondary inhaler at least temporarily (we hope), as well as a pill medication AND a refill of my old type of inhaller all crazy expensive! So now money is insanely tight again... At least I am getting more hours at work with Amanda on Maturnity leave... I neede MORE MONEY... I can't wait to be in a better financial position.
I guess I have to make the most of being stuck here. It snowed a bit today but not enough... When I'm in Colorado I wanna ski, snow shoe, snowboard, snowmobile, and have a grand old time... I may never want to leave!! At least I get my new laptop this year though to start my writing and music to hopefully make some money :) I can't start RCIA to become Catholic til Autumn around here though... So I guess we will see where this year takes me...

New Year, New Hopes, Fresh Start

I didn't get to see Chad over new years at all which was pretty sad. Not until about 10AM when I went over his place to nap after already having some sleep at my own place. I had a dream that I went on a holiday to Tahiti and it was the best holiday of my life. I did not want to leave!! I learned after I got up that the Japanese believe the first dream you have in the new year is supposed to reflect the sort of luck and fortune you have in the coming year. I hope that means good things for me! I hope in the years to come I can get financially stable, see the world, find myself and my faith, and establish a strong foundation. I hope I can make a place home! Have a family and have the exciting adventures I have wanted all along. Going to the beach, mountains for a ski trip, tour Europe or Australia, go through school, publish a book or CD after I have my MAC... Learn new things, meet ne people, speak new languages (especially Italian), learn new cultures... And find beauty in all things... Kind of like in this picture of Tahiti I found that reminds me of part of my dream... It really is a new year and a time to start over. Not every part of it may go as hoped, but I hope I above all find peace this year, and an adventure I can look back on years later saying what a ride... It was awesome... :)
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
