| A new way homeOk real quick....one of my coworkers told me of a new way to get home from this new loacation i've been working afternoons at. the usual way home made me wait in a 10 min long line to get onto the freeway around the time i'm usually off work. So today I took a new way home, and omg i'm going to take this way home from now on! It kinda takes me in the opposite direction of where I want to be in order to get onto a much easier freeway onramp. But the drive is AMAZING, it makes me so happy to be a Californian! The road takes me right along the coast with postcard-esque views of La Jolla shores (thats the name of the beach) and past super rich beach neighborhoods, with homes i could only dream of buying if I won the lotto, lol, but it was so pretty. It was one of those moments where you think "my god im lucky to be here" and it was definately a nice way to end a full workday! I really like visuals, its very calming to me.
Anyway, I have also come to the realization that one of my ferrets, Paddington, is probably the most affectionate little thing EVER! He's just so adorable and won't leave me alone when he's out of the cage! Once i get hold of him all he wants is my attention and to be held and lick my face, I swear im like a drug or something to him! Sometimes I want to tell him "hey buddy, can you let me have some 'me' time" haha

| Last pushStarting tomorrow (monday) I will be back in class. It's been a lovely spring break, very uneventful since I still worked mon-fri as usual, but much needed time for relaxing and spending time with my friends after work  This is going to be an interesting couple months with me doing independent study for two courses since they werent offered in a reasonable time for me to continue and graduate. I'm going to meet my teacher at a local coffee place she picked out which is luckily nearby where I live, apparantly she lives in my general area! I'm sort of excited, she is a fun teacher and real laid back, I had her for my last class, nursing statistics. So we shall see how this class gets going, she and I will be discussing how to go about handling this class and the objectives.
Anyway, as my title for this entry suggests, this is like my last push until graduation. I will be on a continuous roll of classes from now on until the end of August when I complete the program! It's hard for me to get my mind around it, I've been working so long, with so many obstacles in my path, and now finally i will complete my undergraduate degree! It seems like there is still so much time ahead from now until august, but at the same time there is so much I need to get done, and so much is poised to happen until then! I have the remaining classes, my upcoming surgery, GRE prep/exam, and of course a social life mixed in there and a San Deigo summer ahead, and my parents keep asking when I will be able to visit them in nor cal, and I want to plan on visiting my twin brother in NY as a grad/bday present to myself in september, then apply to grad school! I'm not even going to talk about what there is at work, thats a whole nother adventure waiting to happen, lol. Things are definately moving along
So the next handful of months will be my last push, non-stop work to get closer to where I want to be.

| ScaredSo I had a bad dream of sorts the other night. Let me first off let it be known that sometime this summer I'm going to be having surgery to essentially realign my jaw. Yea, it's as bad as it sounds :-/ The problem is with my bite, or lack there of. My front teeth dont touch when I bite down, its called an open bite. What's going to happen is that my lower jaw is going to be broken and realigned, and my teeth will be wired shut for 6 WEEKS. Yup, thats right, a completely liquid diet for six weeks!
So back to my dream, it was about the surgery. Needless to say the dream did not depict a fun scene, just alot of pain, it was like I was being tortured! I've been seemingly calm about this upcoming surgery, kinda laughing it off, making plans for a "food week" where I'm going to pig out every day for a week before the surgery on whatever food I want....since I'll be very limited after the surgery for six weeks and am told I will more than likely loose about 10 to 15 pounds! My main issue is the fact that I am absolutely TERRIFIED to have this surgery. The chance of a bad reaction to anesthesia, the pain, the hunger, complications, it's going to be alot to deal with! I'm in such denial that it's actually going to happen, but it will, and I am going to freak out! I've never had surgery before, so this is going to be one hell of a first surgery to have!
Ok im going to stop now cause im freaking myself out more by confronting it with words! :-/

| tomorrowim going back to irvine for the weekend. Every time I go back there its a host of emotions. Its so bittersweet to be back visiting my UCI friends. At the some time however it really brings me back to some pretty hard days in my life, ones im trying to keep behind me. It's like visiting the site of some disaster, thats how it feels to me, its akward. Yet i keep putting myself thru this experience. sigh
I dont know why i try, i feel old going back and doing fraternity stuff when no one knows me anymore...all the guys i hung out with have all gone off their seperate ways. why do i try and hold on? and when can i just let it all go? or is that really possible?

| future plansthe other day I went to an open house at USD for a masters program im very interested in. Kinda crazy that im already looking into applying for grad school.
Being there got me so excited at the possibility of attaining a masters degree. I'm even more motivated than ever to do my best. It was also in a way discouraging hearing about the tuition cost and admission rate into the program. none the less, the only way to know I won't get in is by not trying.
The program I'm interested in is an entry level masters of nursing program, which is extremely competitive. Basically this program is intended for those who have a bachelors in something other than nusing, it's a way to get into the nursing field while not having to go get another bachelors. The reason I am choosing this type of program is becase I have done so many years of undergraduate work that i cannot imagine doing more. I need more stimulation than that, and I realy would like an advanced degree. Secondly, and I don't mean to sound so arrogant, but i'm so much better than all those retards in my pre nursing classes, and I cant imagine being in the same level program as people like them. What I mean is that these people i have been taking classes with, who all want to go into a BSN program are not very smart, and a bunch of immature whiners who only want a spot in a career with high demand! Sadly most of thse people are over 30, with kids and families. As bad as it sounds I feel like im too smart to have to go back into another bachelors program. I have consistantly aced all my science classes, including microbiology and anatomy and physiology, and nothing is really challenging me, im just chugging through these courses with no real stimulation. I feel that this masters level couse will place with a group of peers that I can relate to more than those i'm in classes with now.
I have the grades to get in, and I have clinical experience with my job, and im going to work my ass off for the GRE. Only problem is, my UC irvine transcript will more than likely come back to haunt me. I left there with poor grades. I can only hope that during admissions the board wil recognize my turn around since leaving UCI, and see my GPA now, along with what I have done and let me interview for the program. I'm counting on this interview because I know I can articulate myself well and explain any questions they have about my intentions and my past. Its hard to guage a persons commitment to a profession with only writing. Lots of people are going to be applying because the money involved in this career, and its a shame that people will be admitted who are in it for a nice paycheck. It makes me angry knowing people will take up valuable room in this program away from those who are truely dedicated to the profesion. I see these people all the time, and i think to myself "wow, i would never want to have that person as a nurse"
