On April 11th I go back to school. Not university since I’m graduating in May (still nervous about the actual ceremony!). This is going to be a 15 week course that will supposedly land me a job. I really want to start working again but I know I’ll have to ease myself into it before going full out. So, it’s going to be pharmacy tech, 15 weeks, then 120 hours of clinical. The only downside is that the school is an hour away and at 8:30am. Ugh. I plan on going to sleep ultra-early the day before and taking sleeping pills (full dose, not half strength) to ensure I don’t stay awake looking at the ceiling.
So, I’m relieved that I’m going to be doing something productive again. I tell myself it’s only 15 weeks, which isn’t bad. Clinicals can be arranged to be a lot closer to where I live so that’s not an issue. I’m nervous but I think this will be a good change. I know I dropped out of the workforce against my wishes (had to do with medical insurance, which I couldn’t not have, and my disability) but I really want to try to get back into it. If I fail the first time, I’ll try again, again, etc.
Wish me luck! 
So it’s lke a 15-week training for a job? Oohhh good luck!
I hope you’ll do well. I’m sure with enough determination and perseverance, you’d end up successful, Gabrielle 
Thanks!
It’s not for a specific job, more a specific career. Not a permanent one but one that will get me back on my feet. 15 weeks plus 120 hours of clinicals (on-site training).
Good luck with the course! If it will land you a job it sounds like a great choice.
Angelica’s last blog post..Kids. Gotta love them? Not really.
Thanks.
Yes, I’m thinking it will be a good move.
Wow, I wish we had courses of that sort here. I don’t know if we have those. Hmm.
Waking up early is such a hassle. Good luck though!
Thanks! It’s a pretty neat course, not bad at all. Just a lot of memorization. I’ve made some flash cards to help me and someone else is going to go over the terms (trade and generic names of drugs, etc.) I need to know.
I got up on time, no issue.
