I speak English! :)
I'm posting this mainly to have something to blog about. But I think the results are pretty self explanatory. :)

Should I have to work so hard?...
Well, I would have been here sooner...Really I would have. I tried to blog yesterday, but I could not get in. Today the only way I got in was by signing in through the post comment page. I could not sign in from the main page.
Anyway, I am here now. Time for some "Road to Oklahoma" information. I finally started my immunizations. I only have the Hep B left, and I hope to take my first one next week. Then I will have to wait a month. Which would put me at early May for my second shot. My third one will probably be in July, right before school starts, but I think I am going to send over my immunization records after the May shot, and just let them know that there is another on the way. That is if I take any Hep B. shots. For some reason, I can't get one here because I am over 18. If the other clinic says the same thing, I am going to ask the people at the school if a person over 18 is required to have them. It may be that because of my age I don't need one. Anyway, I will have to wait until Monday to find out.
I have started a new thing, that is working well for me so far. It is a "To Do" Book. I am using it to keep track with the ten million things that I need to be doing, and so far I am getting a lot more accomplished since I started using it. I also use the book to keep track of which scholarships I am applying for. I am doing quite a few with essays, so I need to sit down and plan a time to write them. I started one, and I like the way I started it, but now I need to go and research the topic. :) I did recieve my entire student financial packet. There were four loans on it, and it still did not cover my total expenses. There is another 1000 or so unaccounted for. So I a hoping to get some of these scholarships.
This may seem totally random to you, but I am very excited about school. :) Most of the time anyway. I did not realize how excited I was until I recieved my schedule. :) If this tells you anything, I immediately typed it up by day, so I could get a good look at what my days will be like. Then I got on google earth, and accessed my route to classes everyday. It seems that even though for part of the day I have a nice break, it would be better for me to plan to hangout somewhere near the buildings where my classes will be. I will explain when I post the schedule. I would post it here today, but I don't have it handy right now. I may later though. :) I also went on Myspace and checked out the grades on some of my professors. Most of mine had pretty decent grades. I did notice something about some of the PE teachers (I looked at all of them becuase I am not sure who I will have yet.). A student complained about recieving a failing grade because they had a breathing problem and could not pass the field test. This seems unfair to me. But I don't know all the details either. I looked at the Spring 07 (they have not posted fall yet) sylabus for the HPEP class and they said the field test is worth 40% of the grade. That is a large percentage. I think when I took it in high school, I passed though. I always walked it, which is allowed. And with my age, I get more time to walk it than some. :) lol :) Anyway, I will just take some benedryl and walk on. lol More later, gotta run.

DFW and other tidbits
Saturday we took Daja to the airport. I made a vow to write about the sadistic designers of the DFW. Oh my goodness, I was so annoyed. You see I had to "tinkle". So I went into the air port and was excited to see a sign pointing ahead that read Restrooms. However, I was a little jaded when I found that there were twenty such signs. I had to walk about a mile to get to the actual restroom. Is that mean or what? It would seem that they would put rest rooms ever so often, instead of having that long stretch of arrows promising relief soon. Anyway, thank God I made it.
I finally broke down and went to the doctor. It seems that I weigh an astronomical amount now. Thank God I am joining a gym. That is not why I went though. I went because I had taken about 58 IB Profien the week before (From Tuesday to Wednesday). I was in serious pain (sinus pain). They gave me an antibiotic for the infection and some pain meds for the pain, and a decongestant. Since then I have been much better. I have not had to take the pain pills much, because the anti-biotic and the decongestant are working much better than Tylonel Sinus. :)
Anyway, that is all for now. I think I am going to write my (future) honey tonight. No, you can't read what I write my honey. I made that blog private, only he can read it. :)
Much love,
Roz
