Have to work on Halloween

I work at a cvs in canton and I have to work from 7am to 4pm. Its not bad but still, I have to wake up early. I am just glad that I am out by 4pm, because I hate working the other shift, which is 3-10pm. Working the 3-10pm shift ruins the whole day, you cannot do anything because you know you have to go to work in the afternoon. But I thinh there will be a rush there tomorrow, because it is halloween, and people will be going out and getting things at the last minute, which will lead them to a convenient store, so then alot of people will be at this convenient store and people will have to wait longer than just going to a meijer and our convenient. But i'll just have to just go through it.

Agassi

I was on espn the other day, and I saw a head line that caught my attention. It was about Andre Agassi's tell all. The article outlined how Agassi was a drug user at one point and hated the game of tennis, while playing it as a pro, and how he hated his father. The drug using was the most shocking, because he did fail the drug test, but lied about it saying that his drink was spiked. But in actuality he was a user at one point, but quit soon. I guess he will come clean now, I mean look he is retired an no one is going to say anything about all the stuff he is coming clean with. I think this is just a ploy to get more money.

Midterm

Well half the semester is over and I think I am sort of in the swing of things. College requires much more of selfteaching, contrast to highschool. But I think the class that is the most difficult to adjust to is my comp class. Writing for me is not that easy, and to change our high school format to a more upper level will be and is challenging to me. But I think I can do it and hope I will do it well. All in all I like all my classes, but my comp class I find it that I got to know the student more, because I just don't show up and take notes on a lecture and then leave, in comp I actually talk to people and got to know them. I like comp, and I think this is the class that is most going to improve me as a student.

another health issue

I had a chemistry exam last Friday. I went took the exam, and when I got home I got some bad news. One of my uncles, was having chest pains and went to the hospital, and was having some tests done. So my family and I left to go to the hospital, and along the way, We get a call that one of his arteries was 75-80% blocked, and the docters were putting a stent in the artery. I was like wow, my cousin (who is 37) had a bypass surgery this year, and not my uncle is having one. (the cousin and uncle are not father and son) My uncle is like 53 a more common age, but still never the less, it is still quite suprising. Finally when we reached the hospital, he was still going through the procedure, and we waited with 20 other people for the procedure to finish. The procedure went well. By the time I am writing this, he is already discharged from the hospital and is already home. I just hope he takes care of himself.

Late to a Wedding

Saturday was a busy day. I worked from 10:00AM till 6:00PM. Usually I work till 7PM, but this past Saturday my cousin got married, so to attend that I left early. Well, I being at work, I missed the whole ceremony, but got to show up a few hours late for the reception. Thank God it was a late reception. It was terrible, I left work at 6 PM, went home took a shower, put on a suit, then drove an hour and a half (usually it would take an hour, but there was construction and a road closing due to a pumpkin festival) to get there when everyone was already finishing dinner. I go there about 8:20 PM. Then I finally left at 1:00AM drove back, this time it took an hour; I just almost fell asleep on the wheel the whole way home. But on the plus side, it was a fun reception.

Tough Week

Well on Friday October 23, 2009 I will be having my second Chem Exam. This time around, we have covered more thinks that are much more challenging compared to our first exam. But on top of all that I will be having my second Math exam on thursday 10/22/09, which will be hard because we are learning things that, again are harder. College I guess is in full swing now, and it is safe to say that it is harder than High School. College is harder, not due to homework, but due to the sheer amout of things we cover, and how much we are to self teach before the next lecture.

Homework 2- 10/14/09

having taken many classes in high school and taking few in college, the one that seemed to be the most beneficial has to have been my honors Biology class, my chemistry class, and my Humanities class. My honors bio class has taught me alot and there I gained much interest in the science of Biology, and I still retain much of the things I was taught. (felt lazy and did not take AP biology and regret it know) In the chemisty class was the same deal, the class was interesting and increased my interst in the subject, and I still remember much of the fundamentals (thank god it helping in chem 134). Finally Humanities. I liked Humanities because I have never learned about art and literature of history. The class taught one history in the aspect of art and literature, and I liked it. Before the class I never liked reading literature, but after the class I enjoy reading here and there. Art, well I know somethings about it, but just dont understand modern art. Older art like at the time of the greeks and romans they were describing the ideal way of life in their eyes, and the sculptures were so realistic it was amazing how they could create that with no modern technology. Humanities also showed us some monuments, such as the taj mahal, again how can people build something like that with no modern tools. Before I took that class, I didn't know much about literature and art, because I was a more math and science kind of person, and still am. But humanites was a good experience. Biology and chemistry have shaped my occupational out look, because of those classes I want to go to med school.
