First Day of Class

So, today was our first day of class.  Just the basic introduction to the program, where the faculty let us know what they expect of us, and what to expect from them.  Then, we received more information about the program. So far, it sounds hard, but doable.

My classmates all seem very nice.  We all come from such a variety of backgrounds, but all have the same common goal, so that closes a lot of gaps.

Down to the wire

So, things have fallen into place.  I have a place to stay.  I have my books and some of my equipment.  I have my lab coats.  I have plans to meet with some classmates this weekend.  Classes start Monday!  Our dermatology test was cancelled.  Whew!

I also had a strange thing happen yesterday.  I went to the Moreno Valley mall.  I decided to get a haircut, and the beautician I had started asking me questions about me and my husband.  Come to find out, we are both from the same baptist association, and her dad pastors a local church!  So, I intend to visit her church this coming Sunday.  Very non-coincidental! :)

Books -done!

Okay, so today we were given the final book list for fall semester.  I got them on Amazon and most of them should be here by next week.  Final cost less than $800, and many of the books will also used for succeeding semesters.  Not bad, I think.
