An update on my life

by admin, under Personal Life, Twitter, Work

It’s been a while since I posted anything here, so I thought it would be a good idea to give an update on what I’m doing and what I’ve been up to!

I took the RHCE – it was very hard, and the classroom time, while great, was just too far between the time we did the class and the time we took the test. I’m targeting February for a re-test and I should be able to get it then.

Work has been non stop. I feel like I’ve worked sooo much lately. I’ve been flipping back and forth between my normal daytime swing shift, to an overnight shift, as well as covering for co-workers who are sick or just need some time off. Luckily my time off is coming soon, so burn out shouldn’t happen :)

I’ve been kind of ignoring my twitter account recently. I think this has to do with work really. We use twitter at work and I guess having to monitor it during working hours (and sometimes outside of them!) has caused me to fall out of love with it. This should change soon though, as we are finally going to hand it off to a new team. YAY!

Personal life has been pretty good, I’ve met some really good new friends recently, and slowed down on going out. I don’t go out nearly as much as I used to at all, partially due to work, but also because of the next item.

I’ve been struggling in trying to quit smoking, so I went to my doctor who prescribed some Wellbuterin. Apparently Wellbuterin doesn’t mix well with Red Bull, which caused me to have a seizure while I was out with some friends. 6 staples to the head later and I’m as good as new :)

I’ve fallen back in love with Facebook recently. You can find my facebook profile here. I’ve got a lot of pictures uploaded there, and I try to keep my status fairly updated :)

I’ve been playing with Photobooth on my Mac.. I’ll attach a new photo to the bottom of this post :)

Aside from that, there isn’t a whole lot else going on. Work work work, studying, and trying to make time for myself.

Me!
