It goes...

So we are back at it again. Yesterday was the first day of school...   

Updates:
School 
- not much here didn't sign up for classes didn't get paid in time. 
- got an email from that grad student asking could I have some work done on that paper.  I have tried to put in some effort but I have lost interest. The guy is not the best person to work for and I just don't feel like I know enough.  Going to force myself to actually out some stuff on paper in the next couple of days 

Work :
This is going ok. I was pretty frustrated at first but it's starting to run a bit smoother. 
- the second job at the studio is going ok also.  
- my 3rd job is also going ok. I have reduced that to just once a week for about 4-5 hours.  I couldn't get over that more than that without just running myself dry. 

I am a bit tired and know it's only going to get worse.  But such is life. 

The plan:
I have not decided if I am going to apply to 1 or 2 schools this year and hope someone feels Pitty on me. 

I think I am not going to go Np route. 

I need to email PA schools about these online courses. 

I need to pay for the MCAT on my next paycheck so I can retake it before 2014 ends.  (Also requires me to pick up some practice test and get back with it). 

Life-
Basically I am a little tired. Trying to stay faithful to the gym. Going to have to fight hard with school starting back I have to make 2 round trips to get to gym. Take daughter to school. Then drive out to work.  But it will be worth it when I am back in a size medium 😋

Been really wanting to look into daiting. Not sure when I will have time but I would like to meet some new friends and hopefully move into a relationship.  I think that will help with my stress level just having some fun for myself every now and again.  

My kid :
So far so good.  She had auditions for school company on Friday and she has choreographed 2 numbers for her student choreography show. They audition for that in September.  And competition dance starts back next week so she is pretty busy herself.  I am hoping  for a smooth year with minimal drama. 

Ok. Off to work.

Focus

First I want to say thank you to all those who had encouraging words for me through out my personal confusion... I appreciate it!


Ok...  So I need to focus up and put my updated plan in place. 

Where am I now.

School
 
There is not a lot going on here,   I still need to find a way to get in A&P I -II to keep my PA/NP route open.   I was informed of a online option that offers labs, but I need to email some PA schools to see if they are accepted.

Also.. I had basically stopped working on that research project, until I get an email on Monday asking me if I could have some work done by this Saturday.   Unfortunatly I have not been able to work on it and today is Friday.  With work at the Dr. Office & a couple days at the studio and my cleaning job I have just been exhausted and not very motivated.

I tried to start looking at some articles today only to find out my school library access is not working, so I have to depend on journals and articles that are open source.

Looks like this is going to consume my entire Saturday :(

Work

It has been a bit ruff.  The training program was a bit not existent, and the office that I am going to be working in has a bit of drama going on prior to my arrival.  I have already had 3 meetings with managers about this.   So the persnickty-ness of the doctor and the drama with the nurse along with the stress of trying to learn this new approach in a busy office environment is pretty stresfull.  
And then having to wait 3 weeks for a pay check with school starting and dance starting is driving a bit cray cray...
But I will move forward... this too shall pass



Life
Not a lot going on here.  I have been getting in at least 3-4 workouts per week ( 5;30 am) in so I am very proud of that.  I am hoping I can maintain that when school starts.



Rugrat
she is doing good... I think she is ready for school and dance to start back up, she has been stuck at the house for a while...

she is out to a movie tonight while I am at starbucks... 
her friends mom...  is a Lawyer who also had a career change and she was telling me her story, so that was pretty encouraging...

speaking of which I need to leave to go pick her up..

more later..

So about that...

Well as I sit outside the building during the break of my scribe job orientation I thought I should drop a quick update. 

Not a lot of time so I will keep it short. 

I'm. Not giving up.

Got the scribe job
Got a job working at my daughters studio
Still doing my cleaning job 

Going to retake MCAT
And going to take GRE 
Going to take AP I & II

Then going to apply to PA, med school, and NP programs.

Putting off apps till next year to get the scribe exp on resume and take the AP and retake of MCAT.  

It's going to work out somehow
