As November gets closer to its end, I am more and more excited (and at the same time, anxious) about my annual blogging tradition of picking, and blogging my top 31 CDs of the year. There are some amazing records on this year’s list, and with each week’s subsequent CD releases, it’s only make things more difficult for me at this point. A wide variety of music tastes will be represented, so make sure you tune in all month long in December for each new entry.
I got the test results back for my fourth Microbiology test today: I got a 93. With an 87, a 97, and a 90 on the previous tests, as well as the professor dropping our lowest test, I am going into the final with a 93 test average. Let’s just say that this is very unexpected to say the least. Here’s hoping I can turn out an A in this class! I need it for my GPA!
Speaking of school, I didn’t say anything, but I didn’t get into Kennesaw for Summer. While I am definitely bummed about it, I am looking at it as a potential blessing; perhaps I wasn’t supposed to go to KSU? Perhaps I wasn’t meant to go that semester? Whatever happens, I am moving forward with GSU, and I am going to re-apply to KSU for fall. I am going to be a nurse, goddammit! You will not stop me! (I do have to say though, that the program at KSU is TINY, and they said that there were over 400 applicants, so I shouldn’t feel so bad about it. There just aren’t a lot of program options in Metro Atlanta for nursing; no wonder there’s a shortage.)
I got the shading done on my phoenix half-sleeve last night, and it is REALLY looking quite amazing now. I can’t wait for the color to be done, but that is at least a month or so out… right now, I am just tending to my tender flesh after last night’s needling. I have to say though, that it is no where NEAR as tender as it was last time for whatever reason; and I am not complaining in anyway about it!

And I can’t wait for the countdown. I hope I have purchased some of your picks. I know the new Take That will be releasing late, but maybe if it is good enough It will make it. It is out on December 1! I couldn’t get on to Spill it now, they never sent me an email. Oh well.
Be careful about the tattoos! I heard (and I could be wrong) that when you get tattoos it stops your bodys ability to sweat and it causes problems… though, you are in nursing so you would know better but you know me, I am all about worrying about people and I don’t want to have to start worrying about you!
It’s in Morrow, south of Atlanta. I think it’d probably be about the same distance away as Kennesaw. I think David (my HS friend and bartender at Mary’s) is taking classes down there too. Not sure what for though.
Very cute. Any fan of Shakespeare will love all of the references. Any fan of animation will love the vivid and beautiful imagery. Any fan of 3D will LOVE this, because the 3D is fantastic. And finally, any fan of good movies will enjoy this one, because it is entertaining throughout.
This is fucking incredible. A MUST. Seeing this live and in person was one of the the best concert experiences of my life so far; having it to relive on blu ray (and in 3D!) is spectacular.

That’s a nationwide problem. There are plenty of people that want to go into nursing, but get frustrated trying to get into a program and give up.
Duane,
Congrats on the scores. I think you are amazing!

You’re doing the right things, man. Just keep on keepin’ on!
Have you thought about Clayton State?
Hakeber, where is that exactly?
