I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm a Temple Nursing School graduate who has recently acquired a job working with the elderly. I think, after my nursing career is over, I would like to be a self-defense instructor. I'm normally a pretty calm guy, who loves to joke and have fun with everyone that I meet. I have been known to rant every now and again. So pop on in, if you'd like to talk. Otherwise, watch me rant, and snicker at me from a distance.

My Interests

I love all contact sports (esp. mixed martial arts), meditation, any kind of music (so long as it's not country), medicine (nursing in particular), dogs, family, friends, and people in general (I just love talking to people).

I'd like to meet:

Gene LeBell "The Toughest Man Alive" and Whitcomb L. Judson (the inventer of the ZIPPER).

Music:

I'll listen to just about anything, except country. Don't ask me why, 'cause I don't have an answer for you.

Movies:

I like action and comedy flicks, but I have been known to get caught up in a romantic flick or two. My favorite movie ever has to be Ocean's Eleven. The Indiana Jones movies come in a real close second.

Television:

I love comedies and cartoons mainly. I'll watch action shows and sport shows if they're interesting.

Books:

I do not read books. I am as uneducated and uncultured as a college graduate can be.

Heroes:

My Father, my grandfather (mom's side), Gene LeBell, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Lee, Sensei Dave Briggs, Chewbacca, and Bill Cosby; just to name a few.

And just like that...

...Life is back to normal.  I passed my class, my blood pressure is down to an almost normal level, and it's winter break.  One month without school.  One month for me to start putting ...

Waiting for a pass/fail grade...

...is like waiting for a verdict on a punishable by death offense.  I'm on the fence with this class to begin with, so of course they give us a final that is riddled with horrifyingly bad qu...

Blowing off some steam

So it's been forever and a day since I've posted a blog, and I have some free time, so I figured I would indulge my impulse to type my thoughts: My summer was consumed by full-time work at the Manor.&...

Where the hell is summer!?!

So I'm seriously tired of school.  The only thing I enjoy about it is clinical.  This is my only day during the week where I have 12 hours to make a difference in peoples' lives.  Every...

I couldn't even begin...

So here we are again, in a very familiar position.  I just finished a 12 hour clinical shift (I got to help deliver a baby girl ), and I have an assignment due for my research group.  I'm go...

Well folks, it's time to jump into the fray again; as winter break fades away to a newer, more action packed semester. We start off with a leisurely 7 hour class (8-3)to review the 7 chapters we ...
