A little update...
Hey everyone! The past couple of weeks have been extremely busy! Here is a little update of my life. I am still in the mist of deciding between going to grad school or getting a job, but just recently the possibility of both has crossed my mind. I received an email last week from a professor in the ISAT program informing me of a possible job opportunity with AMEC Biopharmaceuticals. I have been researching the company and it seemed like a great way to start life after JMU, though I still want to pursue further education to get my Master’s. Last Thursday I had a meeting with a professor at Johns Hopkins University to learn more about their program for a Master’s in Biotechnology. The program seems very interesting as well as something that I believe will meet all my needs. After exploring both opportunities I decided to apply for the job position as well as apply for graduate school. In the event that I get both, I plan on working full-time as well as go to grad school part-time. I hope that both work out in my favor, but we will just have to wait and see!
Classes are going fine so far. It’s nice to be able to enjoy a semester for once, rather than be stressed out about classes. Even though I am only taking 4 classes, I still have a lot of work to do for each of them. Last week I had my first exam in genetics. In my opinion the exam was extremely fair and I felt that I studied the correct material for it. Hopefully I did ok on it. This upcoming week I have 2 exams and a paper, all of which I am not ready for yet. My exams are in Medical Terminology and Values in Healthcare, and my paper is a case analysis which is also for my Values in Healthcare class. I have a bad feeling that I will be up sort of late tonight since my paper and one out of my two tests are tomorrow! YIKES!...
Sorry that it has been so long since my last blog. I will try to update it again as soon as I can and I will keep you posted on what is going on with me!.
Please feel free to ask me any questions that you wish!
