  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

I guess this is more of a rant than anything but I so hate school and life in general! Today I got my test back (for Anatomy) and I found out I didn't do so good on both the lecture and lab exam! Especially when I thought I had done pretty good on the lab one! I had sulked about my test grades for a while and really didn't feel like talking to nobody!

Finally we got onto the heart and we studied today on the models and that went pretty good. I'm not too sure whether I made my lab partner mad because she did leave early and didn't say why. All of a sudden as I get out of class I meet one of the people in my lab and I said I hadn't done too good on my test and she's like "Well it gets a lot harder from here". I thought these last two tests were like the hardest. She's like nope. So I've like gone from good to worse in this short period! And then my mom goes and talks to me and she says "Do you want the good news or the bad news?". Well with me I always want the bad news. She tells me the LVN program I'm trying to get into just started this Spring semester and it's going to be a while before I'll be able to get in it. And then I find out for the Radiologic Technology Program there's a waiting list of 60 people! And they only go each year and they only allow 15 people at a time into the class.

So least bit to say I'm like destroyed for today. Considering this is my life and this is the only hope I have of making a good living this is ultra bad. So least bit to say things do not look good.

If it makes ya feel better, I scored a whopping 50 on a midterm paper for a class. Yeah, I've never scored that low on a paper in my life. Nor have I ever seen so much writing by a professor on a paper either....

I pulled off a 40 on a midterm paper in 3rd year. And I generally get double that.

Well luckily my day had gotten better. Yesterday night I went to Choir practice and that went excellent! We had a good nice fun practice and it was good to sing. Also we had a meeting for Potential soloists and the lady in charge of that says when would be a good day to do some practicing? So we decided on that and I was like okay this good. She talks to me and says "Hey Tony I want you to apply for the Follow me Lord solo." It's an awfully good song and an excellent solo. So I sing it and get a feel for the song and she likes how I sung it! So I got up on the mic up front and it felt awfully good! I sang it and once I started getting into the song I was feeling awfully good.

Unfortunately last night I got home at 10:30 pm and my mom wasn't all too happy. I got a lecture for it and I usually try to be home before that but just waited too long tonight. But finally my dad got on my case and asked me what I got on my test. So I told him the latest score and he wasn't at all happy. Eventually after some talking he says have you even thought of alternatives. Obviously in my mind I'm like "What alternatives". So he tells me if I can get a B in Anatomy 25 he'll consider sending me to Fresno State or Stanislaus Modesto (if there's one there). So now I'm like "Okay if I can get a B in Anatomy 25 and go to Fresno State and get my degree in Radiologic Technology I'll be able to live in California as long as I want! And I'll have a very sweet life!

So least bit to say I prayed last night that I won't lose my mind during this time of trying to study. So that's the update on that and it looks like the Lord has set my path on how I'm supposed to do this. Now it's a matter of making the grade.
