BOOM! BANG!!! CRASH!!!! INCOMING!!!!

Well that can only mean it's one person...yup, you guessed it right!  Hahaha, it's Suz crashing the blog.  What up all?  Well, not much to write, well okay, tons to write, but not going to write it all.  I've got way too much to do today (fall break) and yet, I'm not doing it.  LOLOLOLOL!  Anyway, here is a quick update of what's going on.

1) Started school full time in August.  Studying Graphic Arts.  I LOVED Web Page and Web Graphics I and hopefully will take Web Page II and Web Graphics II this spring so I can get my certificate in Web Page Development.  That's one of the ultimate goals I have: creating and maintaining websites.  Any of you need sites updated or revamped???  I'm the one!!! :-D  I am REALLY enjoying my coursework (minus the stupid visual-spatial difficulties).  I REALLY like the layout and design part of it.  I have figured out that I want to do layout.  I'd love to design logos, but no can do.  My visual-spatial skills are too impaired for that.  But if I can do the layout and design and web page, I'm good :-).  I will have an Associates degree in two years.

2) Finally got a job!  I walked out on Walmart in July (long story behind that).  But I have started at Pump and Pantry at the old Byco station.  I am working my 4th day today and so far I like it.  I'm learning the register and almost running it like a pro.  It's a nice and small convenience store and not super busy, so my sensory issues won't become too much of a factor.  It's the perfect size for me and my Asperger's, so I'm good to go :-). 

3) I did another presentation relating to autism.  This time, I went to Fillmore Central High School and presented to the resource team and a mother of a freshman who is autistic.  I believe he has Asperger's.  But I got to share my experiences with transitioning from high school to college and what I found helpful, etc.  I was dubbed the "walking Rolodex" because I could spit out various names and books dealing with Aspergers.  Hehehe, but that's what you get when you have someone like me who REALLY wants to learn about my condition and how to deal with it :-D.

Not much else, that's the main things that is happening with me.  I will be in Council Bluffs on November 15th.  I'm debating on whether or not to go to the conference that has a young adult track that deals with autism and Aspergers Syndrome, but we'll see.  Either way, I will be going to my TSO concert :-).  It's an annual tradition that I go and therefore, I will be stopping in to see my grammy on the way of course...so someone warn her other than me and my mom!  LOL!  And I JUST purchased my ticket, so that's in the books :-D.  Now, if I go to the conference, I'll be missing school all day...so I'll have to look at that.

And finally, here is a link for you to go visit on YouTube.  I sang at church yesterday, and I had it recorded.  I uploaded it for someone to see, as she couldn't come in from Grand Island.  So here is the link.  Go view the video and let me know your thoughts! :-)  I gotta run, pack supper and get ready for work.  I've eaten SO unhealthy this past week :/.  Dang work and school :-P.  Talk to you all later.
