A TIME TO REMEMBER

I think the the most memorable experience from this semester is completing math 108; in fact completing all my class this semester is a big accomplishment for me. I plan to continue after this semester with the EMT class. I think this whole time that I am in school is great because. I never thought I could make it this far. Being in college has taught me how to be responsible and committed. I know if I stay on track, I will become what ever my mind is set on. I still have a long way to go in school; nevertheless, I won't give up.
My experience at "Butte College" will be exciting for me; moreover, I can tell my children about what I have done. As I grow my children will see how much I accomplished, and I can be a good role model for them as well.

The smell of Winter

My favorite season is winter; in fact every December I can smell Christmas approaching. The day before Christmas I can smell turkey, ham, and stuffing cooking. As I wait for Christmas I can smell the pine needles from our tree. Outside the wind is chilled and snow has covered the ground. Icicles hand from the gutters and the smell of hot fire places fuel the air. Although, it is dark I can see since, the lights from each house has lit the entire street up. As I return from outside I can hear "Deck the Hall" coming from in the house. Everyone is gathered around the fireplace singing Christmas carols and drinking eggnog. All that surrounds me is family singing, music and laughter. December is my favorite season because, It is a time when people give and receive.

Summer Plans

This summer we have so many plans. On June 7Th we are going to go to my daughters 6Th grade graduation. We have been waiting so long for this day. The biggest part of summer vacation is our 4Th of July camping trip. Every summer we get all the relatives together and plan the best camping trip ever at lake almoner, we do so much there we bike ride, swim, jet ski, and go out on the boat. The best part of the trip starts on the 4Th of July. The night of the 4Th of July everyone gets in the boat and we take a ride out to the middle of the lake. We wait for them to let off a wonderful display of fireworks. It's so beautiful it looks like the fireworks are going to land right on you. After the display we go to our campground and roast marshmallow's and tell scary stories by the bomb fire. This camping trip last 2 weeks then everyone packs up and leaves.
After I return home I plan to work at Enlo Hospital for work experience. I will be working right beside EMT and learning more about the job that I plan to enter. I will continue to work for the rest of the summer vacation, then when school starts in fall I will start the EMT courses I may need to start my career.
