School thank you for arriving: a fresh start, new position, and my senior year. I have to say that it is extremely odd to be a senior when my original senior class graduated this past spring. When I walk around the campus I have this disorienting out of body experience because I keep looking for the usual suspects that have already headed out to the real world. However, good news is that I am not the only one who’s feeling the same way. A support group is in the makes.
I’m excited for my list of classes this semester and due to my internship taking up the rest of my spring semester this workload is going to be my last conventional semester.
Intro to Epidemiology: Lots of data, health disparities, and the like.
Communication Techniques in Health Promotion: This class was made for me. Tons of media, lots of projects… basically it’s a lab for health promotion. This is what I would like to do for a long long time.
Sustainable Development: Production, Work, and Values: It’s basically a seminar course discussing what I love most. There are such a variety of majors taking this class; I’m stoked for new views and ideas.
Service Learning in Comm. Health: I’ll know better when I head in tomorrow. From what I understand we will we working to implement a short health curriculum in different venues like schools, rehab locations, etc.
I have many plans mixed in with this semester. The one I recently completed was helping Joe clean his room. As in take every thing out of his room and scrub that bad boy down. We used some sweet eco friendly cleansers that have worked wonders on his mold and mildew problem (he lives in a basement so the airflow is not exactly the best). The product we used was Wash Safe Industry’s Mold & Mildew Wash. Result? Excellent. The walls were pretty deplorable near the floor, we slopped and sponged the trouble areas and within a few minutes the majority of those areas looked more like the wall and less like a black hole of gross. The highlight of my day came easy when my man explained how he called the company to find out how best to use their product. Ah this kid is so awesome!
Other events upcoming:
- Wedding in October, looking up sweet eco friendly wedding surprises in the near future.
- Running a half marathon (on about a month of training… I’m slightly tweaked)
- Purchase hiking boots and break those puppies in.
- CRUISE! I know it isn’t exactly the most green vacation choice but CRUISE!
