1 down 2ish to go

Yassssss! The first semeseter of graduate school is a wrap! I feel like this may be a little braggy but for those who kicked it with me undergrad know that the fact that I made my first 4.0 in my life is a big deal. I know!! I can't believe how much I love it. I actually learned something and can't wait to get back to it in August.


Plans are in full swing to finish up next May. I'll take 3 classes (2 / 8 week classes and 1 /16 week class) in the fall. Then in the spring I'll take another 3 classes and an internship. I feel like Robert DeNiro in the "The Intern", oldest intern ever! Fingers crossed I can land something and that my fellow co-horts will understand and appreciate my 80s references!


In the meantime, I'm going to enjoy my summer with the girls and Ry.


Happy Summer y'all!

Promoting a lifestyle

I was reading about Hugh Hefner the other day (I know not so "child lifey" of me) and at one point in his career he decided remake himself as a " bon viveur " and "man about town" that he would live the life he promoted in his magazines.  Outside of the wild parties and extra boyfriend or 3, I feel like I am following in his footsteps....sorta....in a sense.  I am adding something new to my life. Technology. So now I'll be like Hef and promote my lifestyle. I'll blog, tweet and learn what I can in graduate school in order to step up the game at my children's hospital. My first classes are Intro to Web Development and Digital Media. I have started the Web class and I had to call IT immediately and ask for help. Good start! Per the professor by the end of class I will be able to code my own website. (stop laughing). I'll blog along the way as a way to help myself journal what I learn throughout school. Feel free to follow along and

Why YES it took me 2 days to do this

http://bengal.missouri.edu/~kmbk3f/ISLT7360/lesson1/ Read it and weep.....2 loooooong days..... what is it you ask? I know, I know there is nothing there. Well that's step 2. I'll deal with that on Friday. I found myself in a state of panic when the instructions weren't clear. To me it read: downloadthehttpfilewhichisabengalpagebutnotbengelwithanebutwithanaandthentheurlfileandthenmakeafolderbutwewonttellyouhowtomakethefolderortheurlyouwillneedtojustfigurethatoutonyourownandwellgoodluck. On day 2 at 11:30 PM when I was at the end of my rope and planning a conference call with the graduate assistant for the next day. I decided to go through the modules again and low and behold there was a video with detailed instructions (I swear it wasn't there before) to: Create a space in the Bengal server to store all of your work. Apparently my work will be for all to see on the web. It's not searchable, can't find it on google, but with the URL you can see it all. Th

One more class!!!

Oh boy! Oh boy!! This is it. I just turned in my last paper for the semester, paid for my summer class and then, stick a fork in me I am D.O.N.E!! I love getting all the, your graduating emails. I can't believe it's finally here. While I loved school, I am over school! This semester was quite the challenge to say the least! I took 3 courses and like the other semesters 2 were 8 weeks and 1 was 16 weeks. The 16 week was Intermediate Web Development. I never thought I would love coding so much and have found that I am looking forward to creating a little side business creating websites for friend, family and educators. Keep an eye out for KBeesCodes coming soon! I learned some cool tricks in this class. If you are so inclined you can check out my projects here . I also took Electronic Portfolio Development. This was where we put it all together for our final evaluation proving that we learned something. My project goes for review on July 1st. I think it looks pretty good and fe
