i am attending International Business College. they work with the Vet Tech Institute which is where i will be for the next 18 months. it is an accelerated and very time consuming program. so if you thought i was busy before you can forget about seeing me now. i have breaks every season for about a week and holidays of course. but all the instructors have told us what little life we had before is over, at least for the next 18 months.
i'm in school 5 days a week. classes change every 8 weeks, but for the first 8 weeks i have class starting at 7:50 monday through friday. i get out at different times each day. but i have to get up at 5:30AM which if you know me, then you know that i am NOT a morning person and this is a serious adjustment. oh yah and as part of the program we have kennel duty where we take care of the animals at the school. on tuesday mornings i have to be up at 4AM in order to be at kennel on time. -i am going to die- if anyone is awake that early, give me a wake up call!
but to give you kind of an idea about how things go, i started classes on tuesday, had a quiz on friday, will have 3 tests on monday and another one on tuesday. i have homework and readings every night and i'm still working at the dog bakery. so goodbye social life. say a prayer for my sanity and the sleep that i will be missing.
apart from the changes of getting up early and being even busier, i am very excited about this program and my new school. i get to wear scrubs everyday, learn about animals and have hands on experience with small animals, large animals, and exotic animals. sounds good to me!
i'm sure i will have lots to share as the weeks go by, the problem will be finding the time to write about it.
