Whew! What a semester!

Well I guess I should do a recap of the semester lol! Well let me tell you it's been filled with plenty of trials and struggles along the way, but I'm better off now that it's ended! I just checked a grade for a class that I'm not to fond of and I actually pulled a B in a writing class and I'm not an English person when it comes it.

It's been really interesting watching everything take place throughout the semester. Doing counseling sessions for P.T.S.D. through the local Vet Center and through a Christian Counselor which both made a world of difference in my life! Both have helped me to understand what triggers reactions and flashbacks. I would not discount either one honestly. Both have been absolutely amazingly in my life and I continue to make progress!

This is the first semester that I've honestly done better then semesters past honestly. I pulled two B's which is really exciting honestly for me. I've never been an academic person so this is huge progress that has been made! I mean a B in Composition II is ridiculous for me because I've struggled so much in the past.

Enough happy go lucky stuff lol! Time for the meat and potatoes bits about the semester! During the start of my Comp II class which was an accelerated class I had a flash back on the way home from work while being followed by a cop. Boy that was an interesting day let me tell you! I have never been home while a flashback has been happening........ugh! I had to email my instructor that night because I had homework due the next day for the class which was going to happen and I ended up asking for an extension.

I do not think that I have ever been so busy through a semester as I was for this one. If I wasn't working then it was school, or counseling, or hanging out with friends. I've learned a lot this previous semester and it was rather challenging. One thing is never take a accelerated class and an online class in the same semester! That sucked and I will never do that again! As a mater of fact I will never do an online class again! A lot of progress has been made and I'm better off getting through the semester.

I'm now going to enjoy the summer weather and work as little as I can lol! I'm going watch people that I care about and have come to appreciate get married this summer. Also get to shoot my guns! Because that's what I like to do! Well I hope all of you are enjoying the weather! Take care and God Bless!
