Re: SB girls?

  • You guys.  TN hates me.  They have all the best smileys and none of them work for me.
  • Anyone notice that the SB board is now in negative minutes.  Oh TK, you silly hoar you....

    Great gift, Nebb!

     

    Ibarr, it's ok.  I do have interesting stories, btu I have way more from my last job (kids in residential treatment).  I'm going back (hopefully) for my masters in social work.  Apparently, to be a social worker, you have to be able to write 17,000 essays for applications.

     That is a lot of essays!  lol  Some of the students I work with just had a few grad essays due.  Apparently their personal statement couldn't contain anything about their research work.  Their research work had to be seperate, yet a lot of their research has influenced where they have been and where they are today.  

    When are your apps due?  Soon or do you have some time? 

     

    Yeah, in addition to 3-5 question personal statements, I also have to write a 1500 word position paper on a current social work trend or issue, write a 2-3 page paper on an area of social work I believe more resources should be focused on (and I'm struggling to keep it short enough!  I think I found my research project subject ;) ), and write a 3-5 page essay presenting both sides of a controversial current event.  Sweet.  I have until the beginningish of January.  So...lots of time, except not really.

    I'm a blog!

    AGAIN?  oh god. 

  • holycrap hike.  How sad.  One of my best friends was killed at 19 by a drunk driver... it was a country vet rushing to help birth a horse, who had been drinking before he was called.  Glad that horse's life was worth more than my friends. 
  • Nebb - spend half on tickets, then spend the other half on lunch that you'll love. At least one is a guarantee.

    How many people live in the house? Do you dispense the medicine? 

     

    Capacity is 15, but we have 14 right now.  We keep meds in the office and we observe them taking them and document, but it's technically self admistered.  We don't make them take them, remind them to take them, or set them up for them. 

     

    Onhh gotcha. I'm fascinated with any job that works with people who have stories. I absolutely love teaching the students who need stable adults and students with autism or learning disabilities.

    Not that it compres to the people you work with but I definitely have learned so much from it.

  • KIM!! some weirdo client came into the office today and offhandedly made a Jurassic Park reference. He was so weird but I didnt care because he was obviously also awesome. He even had a gigantic robert muldoon hat.

  • Hike, I just saw that post. Oh man....that's horrible. :(

    Poor kid. It's always the wrong people. Why can't it be some disgusting rapist or something that gets hurt?

  • J, Scott is dealing with all of that stuff right now.  He is applying to six schools and he's been working on all his personal statements and everything for MONTHS.  He just got word back from a professor he's been talking to that the stuff he's sent her looks good and he only needs to edit it a few more times until it's ready.  :|

    I won 23$ on my lottery tickets. Do I cash in or use it all to buy MORE LOTTERY TICKETS!!! - I could get 7 more crosswords.

     

    BUY MOAR. 

  • I was talking to my mom about it. There is no way I would have had access to a car if I had a DUI at 17. Well no way I'd have access to the car if I had a messy room but to already have a DUI and continue to have access? Come on

  • steph - that is awful!  I'm so sorry :(  Back in HS we had a family of a fellow classmate that died from a drunk driver (driver of the car)  come and talk to everyone around prom season.  It was so incredibly sad.  Of course the drunk driver survived.... as always.

     

    J&K - I agree, that's some time but not a lot!  I would have trouble staying focused during the holidays if I had a deadline like that.  I'm pushing any further education for myself until after the wedding.  Then I'm sure I will be scrambling like hell to get everything done. 

  • I think im just gonna cash it in and buy steaks at costco. Id rather eat delicious steak than risk it.

    Well, gee, that sure does make me feel better.  Jerk.

     

    Hike, that's so sad :(

  • Les! HI! You have so many posts over here... where do you usually hang out? MM?

    That dude sounds rad.  Also, you totally just reminded me of our weirdo client and I don't think I've ever told about him on TK.

    He has a crazy huge gun/weapon collection, and he likes to bring his most recent stuff to our office (but he keeps it in the car and asks permission to show it to us in the parking lot).  AND the best part?  He has " YOU" *** ETCHED into his two front teeth.  So when he smiles at you his smile is saying " you." 

  • I'm here.

    I talked my H into watching a Christmas movie.  It's The Grinch movie and he's identifying with the practicality of the Grinch.  *sigh*  But at least he's watching a holiday movie.  Right?


    We're apparently doing fourthmeal tonight so there is a thin crust, 3 meat pizza in the oven, and I'm thinking about making up a big pot of hot cocoa.

    Huh, so apparently they just straight up remove swear words on here huh?  but if you quote me, the words are back! 

  • I want a fourthmeal every night.

  • I would also say cash in the tickets and don't buy any more!  FI and I played all along the NY State Thruway and throughout Western NY during a recent visit.  We had up to 50 bucks (not a lot) but by the time we were on our way back we lost all of our money in Albany.  Dangit!

  • Anna, I'm making myself a cup of hot chocolate as soon as I open the kitchen in 6 minutes! 

     I'm on my first day of my lowest calories for my first week of calorie cycling, and it's been way easier than I thought it would be.  I also had a killer run today.  I'll probably lose like 4 pounds between today and tomorrow, and then gain it all back this weekend.  Haha!

  • I noticed that, too Kim.  Weird.

     

    also, we have our first fight of the hockey game. And it was a good one. The refs are calling bullshit.  it's ridiculous. 

  • imagereddy123:

     Me too. I just asked H what he thought about it, and he went into the kitchen and got me a granola bar. I think he needs this to be explained again.

    Hey Steph!  Usually MM and ML - the ML regs are absolutely hilarious.  They're pretty cool about newbs chiming in.  I used to post on H&F, but not so much recently.  TIP and RE scare me, but I lurk.  Crafts is fun, and P&CE is very interesting.

    Any chance you can help me figure it out?  The weight is coming off still but slowly.  I'm fat enough that I definitely think it's possible to lose more than I am now.  I think I need a total routine change-up again.

    I won't start until finals are over and I'm able to set up a legit exercise routine again.

  • Kourtney Kardashian is pregnant again?  Wanna know how much I keep up with celeb news?  I found this out on Suri's Burn Book.  HA!
