Hello everyone,
Here we go again! It's so exciting, and after enjoying a break I have to be honest. I am very happy to be starting up again this week.
Work diligently, and productively. Clear thoughts, and positive surroundings will push you right along.
Stay focused, breath, relax, and keep yourself accountable. Every second counts.
*** Keep your eye on the clock, time can get away from you ***
Good luck everyone.
Rose ;-)

.."Come on it's time to celebrate...COME ON!"...
Yes! We made it. We all should treat ourselves to a litte celebration, or reward.
Tips for the next essay:
Remember for you first or next scientific paper, make sure the topic you choose is FUN for you, and that you find search articles that support your ideas.
Because nothings harder then choosing a topic and not being able to have fun support articles or facts about it as you go.
Learning how to write a scientific paper has strengthened my abilities to prefect my grammar, shorten run on sentences, and improvements on an even flow.
I still need to improve on my research efforts and APA format on for my reference page. I still need to practice on how to reference articles with volumes and pages.
Overall, I loved the experience and I recommend everyone to take to advantage of all the tips, and tools given by Kaplan University’s professors, writing staff, and peers meet through out the courses.
Pat yourselves on the back everyone...no matter how times you got frustrated, or got behind, or how many times we raised our voices because we didn't buckle down on our studies...I have to say; at least we made it to the finish line.
I hope we all receive wonderful grades, and if the grade we get don't turn out to be what we wanted...do not give up.
"Obstacles are the things we see when we take our eyes off the goal"Zig Ziglar.
Do not get discouraged, just know that its not what happens to you that determines how far you go in life; its how you HANDLE what happens to you. Keep your chin up, and keep fighting for your dreams.
K.I.T. everyone, if you keep your blog...I will continue to comment. Good Luck everyone!

Core values and the secrets to success
Hello Diane, Crysta, Melissa, James, Beverly, Danyelle, Lauri, Ashley, Lillie, Daniel, Edward (of course), and Cheryl, Janie,Kristen, ...and everyone else whom I didn't list,
I just wanted to say it has be so fun meeting you all and having the opportunity to learn from all of your experiences that you have gone through. Thank you for sharing, and helping me to grow.
Life is full of adjustments, and we can always learn something new everyday.
Keep on doing the right thing.
Create environments that foster a rewarding life,
always comment yourselves to a relentless quest for excellence,
and thrive on your achievements.
As I always say "Life is not to survive, but to THRIVE". Have fun, stay focused, be positive, and when things get tough don't look that the disappointments, but close your eyes and think about the way you will feel when you are where you want to be, and have all that you need. It's a great feeling, and those feelings will push you there quicker.
Good Luck everyone, keep in touch! Rosa ;-)

TIME FOR A BRAIN WASH
Hello everyone, I just wanted to share...there comes a time when we all need some brain washing. Meaning, we all need a daily check up from the neck up.
"We all need a daily check up from the neck up to avoid stinkin' thinkin' which ultimately leads to hardening of the attitudes" Zig Ziglar.
I hope everyone is doing OK, I'm truckin' right along, and still working hard on revising and writing my essay for two classes.
I've experienced several different situations in the past few days, maybe some of you have to? My sister's daughter was ditching summer school, your other daughter has an older boyfriend, and her step-daughter is engaging in sex under her mother roof (at her mother's house).
The main problem was simply communication, and being involved with each other. A parent really needs to talk 'open forum' style, don't hold bars. Really get in there and have the knee-to-knee talks.
Don't judge, and don't get upset with each other. Just share.
So her daughter finally mentioned how she'd rather take the course next Fall, since summer school was her choice & not required. Her other daughter realized she was too young to have a BF, and well, her step daughter is in bog trouble, but at least now her mom know not to her trust her in her room with a boy. oopies. Moms need to be a MOM not just Friend's.
Good luck, teenagers are challenging.

"Never trade what you want most, for what you want now"
This week was absolutely great, I made my first two post early, read all weekend, and finished my finally posts today.
I know last week was c-r-a-z-y, but the main ingredient to my craziness is procrastination.
I went on a road trip this weekend...I read along the way. I drove 975 miles this weekend listening to comedy "LaughUSA", I was laughing so hard I could hardly see where I was driving. Don't worry I made it safely back home, but it's true what they say laughter is truly the best remedy.
No matter where you are, rent some funny movies, or read up on some new jokes. It totally brightens your prospective on life, worries, and on the obstacles that we face.
The one thing that was apparent; "The only way to coast is downhill"(Zig Ziglar), so keep the metal to the petal, and see you at the top. ;-)

"Success is not a destination, its a journey"
Hello everyone, Man oh man this week has been c-r-a-z-y!!!
C = confusing, I am definately due for a new schedule and for a new study location. Espacially now that schools out.
R = ridiculous, I can't believe I let myself fall behind. I go wrapped up with graduation's, promotions, end-of school year events. I never had a chance before to truly enjoy these things before. But I realized this made me procrastinate on getting my outlines done, and my essays started.
A = action, I know what it is I have to do, now I just need to sit down and do it! I keep thinking of all these other elements that don't contribute to the mater at hand. I need to clear my mind, and start with #1 on my to-do list.
Z = Zzzz, Be aware of your sleep time. Meaning, get good sleep especially after a long night or day of reading or researching, and pounding the keyboard for those essays. It's important to take a long shower or at least a hot one, and get some sound sleep.
Y = You. Nothings more important right now then you are to yourself, and your goals. I have to stay focused. I have been so emotional lately, everyone around me is maturing and growing and I am so proud of every ones achievements. Also, my first and only nephew just turned 18yrs old, he's driving on his own (he took me to lunch), just graduated high school (Presidents Award), and on the 22nd he leaves for the Air Force. I couldn't be prouder, and I admire his confidence, and bravery. He has raised himself to become a wonderful young man.
These passions are in all of us, and this past week reminded me of that. Good luck to all of you!

"You find yourself in a ditch, don't pitch a tent"
Hello everyone,
I wanted to reach out and pitch a few ideas. Make sure to follow your own blog too. That way you'll know who posts to your page.
The best way I've found is to POST A COMMENT on the classmates you've selected to follow! ... and at the end of the comment you have posted there's a little side note that asks you to subscribe by email.
Subscribing by email is cool because you'll receive blog entries or comments through out the day. When you least except it, a fellow classmate will post a comment, and it will trigger you to get into action.
Always stay connected to your main objectives; completing your assignments, and studying for your exams.
Take care *Good Luck *
