The start of what looks to be a good week...

Since last time I wrote to all of you, not a whole lot has happened. I took my exam last Thursday in my Medical Biotechnology class. The exam didn't appear to be as difficult as I expected it to be, but I'll just have to wait and see how I did. In my Epidemiology class we just started getting into the concept of outbreak. To help emphasize this subject my professor, Dr. Kristi Lewis, will be assigning us a Outbreak Case Study. I'm actually kind of interested in how this will turn out because it might be an area in which I choose to pursue as a career. As of right now, it looks like my work load for this upcoming week shouldn't be that bad, but of course that could all change.

One thing this weekend that was kind of exciting was I got to see my brother. He was visiting some friends down at Virginia Tech and stopped by to say hi. It was great seeing him since I haven't really hung out with him since August when I moved back down to JMU. Since I've been in college, my brother and I have become a lot closer to one another than when we were in high school. That might sound a little weird, but it's true.

This weekend in football JMU had a by, but the Philadelphia Eagles played Oakland Raiders. The game came down to the last seconds of play when the Eagles made a field goal to beat the Raiders 23-20. This was definitely one exciting game. Due to all the excitement of the weekend (seeing my brother, football) I didn't have any time to do any of my homework for the week so tonight (Sunday) should be full.

During this upcoming week, JMU will be holding one of its annual job fairs. Different companies and organizations can register and allow a representative to come to JMU to promote their company and look for prospective employees. I plan on attending the job fair and hope to give out a couple of my resumes. Since I am still indecisive as to whether I want to go to grad school or get a job, I feel that it doesn't hurt to do both. Hopefully as a result from this I will have some different options for what I could potentially do after I graduate, whether it's pursing more education or starting my life as a career woman.
