so tired, but so happy
so, yet again, it's been awhile since i've updated. i've been busy though...
so what's new?
hmm...well, i'm in the middle of my 5th term and it's going pretty well. i'm not so crazy about billing and coding. it's not that it's really hard...it's just incredibly boring. but there's only 2 more wks, so i can deal with it. law and ethics has been pretty great. we watch house almost every class and talk about his illegal or unethical actions. haha. we've also watched 2 movies, that i highly recommend (miss evers' boys and gattica). most of the stuff in there is pretty straight forward and all, so it's been nice.
work has been going pretty well lately. i did 2 b-day parties a couple wks ago and i had a blast. it's been awhile since i've spent time with kids, so i'm a bit rusty, but it was so much fun! the first party was w/11 yr olds, which i've gotta admit, is kinda intimidating. i don't know why pre-teen girls are so scary, but they are. they were pretty nice though, so it was fun. the 2nd party was w/ 3 yr olds. by far, my favorite age group. i love kids at that age bc they're so talkative and they say the craziest things. and these kids were well behaved, so i loved them even more.
i'm also doing kids club on saturdays. basically, every sat for 2 hrs, kids can come and do a craft for $2. that's been pretty fun and def a nice contrast to spending time w/ adults all day.
this past wk, they've been training me to be the front end supervisor. it's gone pretty well so far. it's kinda nice having a little more responsibility. i love all that i'm getting to do at work, bc it's all stretching me and growing me. 2 yrs ago, i never would've believed i was capable of going to school, working, being a supervisor, working with kids alot, and keeping it all together. but somehow, i'm doing it. and i don't mean that in a bragging sort of way. i know it's not all about me and what i can do. it takes team work at work to make everything run smoothly. and now, i will brag: we have an amazing team. everybody at michaels is ridiculously fun to work with. i couldn't ask for a better job for where i am now. i love it.
so i can't really think of anything else that's new and i really need to get my hw done, so night kids...sweet dreams....
