How Much Longer?!

School is kicking my butt this year and I'm not sure if it's because they switched to the 12 week program, or if it is the senioritus kicking in way early?  Probably a little bit of both, but seriously...it isn't all that fun this year.  I think the worst class I have this year will be PHP Scripting, because who really wants to learn all of this coding??  I certainly don't...

One of the classes that I'm most excited about is my Web Design 3 class because we are doing a project for Boys Town that focuses on their hotline.  Boys Town came to our class to ask for help in creating a website that teenagers could come to for help, and a place where we could direct them to their hotline for help.  It's projects like these (in class or in the real world) that make the job you do so worth every stressful situation or frustration all for the chance to save someone's LIFE by creating a website that they can go to which will help them deal with their environment that they live in.  

I may complain sometimes about the workload that school gives me, but in the end...it's all worth the headaches because it makes it THAT much more rewarding when it's all said and done.

That's my preaching lesson for the day.  Thanks for reading!  :)

DONE and DONE

Alright, the blog section has been moving and going funky on me, but I think I got it all straightened out now! Anyways, WELCOME! This is my blog site, so I hope you enjoy my blog posts and the pictures that come around in the future. This is actually a requirement that I do this blogging business, but when the class is over I will try to continue to use this.

I'm just going to share that I went on a run tonight outside thinking I could beat the torrential downpour and I definitely lost. I ran home as fast as I could (which was quite a ways away!) and found myself swimming in a few puddles along the way. Anyways, I got home, took a picture of my soaked self, so I'll go ahead and post it for you viewers to enjoy and I want to make sure the images look right on my page. Enjoy!
