Jesus is coming!

It's almost Christmas, the time when we remember the birth of the savior. This year my wife and I have been reading bits of the story of the birth of Jesus and the prophecies preceding him over the last few weeks. I've been trying to put myself in the sandals of those 2000 years ago patiently waiting for their savior. Man, I can only imagine the excitement they must have felt when the news of his birth spread! I want to celebrate Christmas with that same kind of anticipation and excitement! 

Merry Christmas! Let's dance til we get holes in our socks! Our savior has come!

Finals!

Statistics and pathophysiology finals are tomorrow and then I'm DONE! At least for this year...since it is common for different schools to have slightly different prerequisite classes, depending on which school I am accepted to I may or may not have to take a couple more prerequisites.  

It's been nearly 3 weeks since interview day at CU Denver and I am very eager to know if I will be accepted or not. As of tomorrow I will have all my prerequisites done for CU, so if they accept me I'll have this spring off before jumping into nursing school in June. If I'm not accepted I will need to do a chemistry and history course this spring to complete the prerequisites for UNC in Greeley. Not the end of the world, but if would be nice to have a little break before nursing school starts. 

Pathophysiology has been a great course. It's one of those classes that is only a prerequisite for some schools, but I am glad I'm taking it reguardless. CU for instance does not require it as a prerequisite, but it is one of the first classes you take in their program, so I feel I will be well prepared for it and will not feel so swamped during the first couple semesters. 
It's a nice chilly December Sunday today, great for studying. I better get back to it!
