Lately i have been able to balance all of my work and try to get it done on time until recently on Tuesday when my English professor began to pile so much work on her class. she told us that because she's going to be absent in mid march she decided that we get all our done early. therefore she assigned us a five page paper due tomorrow along with questions from the text book that we use; then another five page paper that's due on tuesday with a ten page paper due that same day, in total she's looking for fifteen pages due next week on tuesday. the ten page paper is a research paper about how music has changed the ideal image of an average woman in society today as compared to the 1930s and the other five page paper is a persuasive paper about music has a positive impact on our community.
The only thing that's bothering me about these assignments is that they are all about the same topic; music. since the beginning of the semester we've been writing about music. i just wish we had a different topic that had nothing to do with music. Besides my english assignments i have a test in my history class also on tuesday and i haven't studied for that yet. also next week is my birthday on Friday March 6th but i'm not that excited about because i have to get all my work done first before i celebrate anything.
Besides work, work, work, i am looking forward to doing a nursing internship abroad this summer in England. i really want to do because i think it's a great opportunity and a fun experience and also it will good on my resume. i've always wanted to study abroad and i have the chance to do it so why not take it. i am going to meet with the study abroad advisor on monday so we can go over the paper work. This, i am excited about.

my online class
When i registered for classes last semester, the learning center told me that i had to take a computer class and that its a requirement for graduation at Salem State college. on my schedule it said that i am taking computers and there uses and we are meeting three days a week. my computer professor changed the class to an online class because she said its more convenient for us and her schedule. I have never taken an online class before and i thought it would be easy but i find it more challenging than i thought it would be. you have to download the assignments and work on them through Microsoft word. but the instructions are word for word and sometimes when i don't understand what the instructions are saying i don't have anyone to ask. i am used to going to class and ask my teacher questions if i am stuck on something. I find it hard with the online class because there are so many features that are new to me and i find myself not submitting my assignments on time. And also if you make one mistake then the whole assignment is wrong. Therefore i prefer going to class just like everybody else than take a class online

Really sick
This past week I've been really sick, i had a fever a headache, a cold and flu, i couldn't sleep at all and i stayed up coughing all night. everyday when i woke up it seemed like i was getting worse and worse. i had to call my mom in the middle of the night at like 2:00 am in the morning and i told her i didn't feel so good. i told her that i was burning up and that i think i caught a fever. i told her that i can't sleep and she offered to come pick me up late at night from school on a Thursday night and she did. she took me to the emergency room and i stayed there until the morning. she took me home and i missed school Friday and Monday and i came back Monday evening because i didn't want to miss my tuesday classes and i had also felt a little bit better. i felt like i was strong enough even though i was still suffering from a really bad sore throat. luckily my mom gave me some cough syrup to take with me at school and she told me it should help me ease on the sore throat. she also told me that if i get sick again i should call her or my dad. i have to say that those were the worst couple of days i've had at school so far and i am feeling much better now.
