Halloween Party Weekend!

This was an awesome week.

Tuesday: To kick things off, I worked at the dedication ceremony for Northeast Alabama Community College’s new Health Education Building. Check out this awesome suit I had to wear there. What tops it all is that I got it for free under the presidential host scholarship. I gave some tours and got to meet some high level people, buisness leaders, ect. Pretty fun but I was feeling the pain on wednesday when I had my clinical this week.

Friday: The presidentail hosts threw a halloween costume party which was awesome. Sorry I don’t have the pic’s yet. I went as a rapper… which everyone agreed I enjoyed a little to much. I ended up winning most original costume in the costume judging contest. Some of the faculty was there and it was fun seeing them dressed up as well. There was great food and music so everyone had a good time. I was forced to scale a tree to hang a pinata…. a feat that everyone was amazed by, but this is Alabama so it’s ok to be able to climb a tree like a spider monkey.

Saturday: I got to hang out with Kim as usual and relaxed after staying up until 1:30am. Staying up late really drained me.

I will try to get the pictures up as soon as I can so yall can check out what I would look like if I “was straight from the hood.”  Remember, if you have any questions about northeast, e-mail me at Zach@nacc.edu     Thats it for this week   -Z Drak Out

Weekend Hunt

This past week was pretty good overall.

As usual I met my GF at Northeast Alabama Community College and we got to hang out on Friday and Saturday.

Friday we went fishing and caught a few bluegill off of the boat ramp near my house and let the legenary Joshua play with the catch and throw them back in the water…. or straight down onto the dock…. depending on the fish’s luck.

Sunday was the real fun though. I had planned this hunting adventure with my highly trained hunting dog… Check it

Rabbit Down! Haha, I would never put pictures of dead or wounded animals on here! Still… that little dog looks deadly doesn’t she? I decided not to really go hunting after realizing that I hadn’t had adequate time to practice shooting and I never want to do anything that I am not 100% prepared for.

Most of the day was spent preparing songs for the NACC Presidential Host Halloween Party next Friday! Northeast is going on the map as a party school! I am going to be dressing up as a rapper….. Voted to go as one because of my hate of 90% of today’s rap music…. It will be interesting. Be sure to tune in next week to some crazy pictures of the party!

Farm Fishing Fiasco

This week was jam packed! by this week I meen Oct. 8-14th

I have a bunch of cool pictures to check out from this weeks adventures. I had another clinical for the Northeast Alabama Community College Nursing Program Wednesday that wore me out but luckily I was well rested for my visit to Kim’s house on friday. We planned on catching some fish but, after only a few seconds we quickly became frustrated because Kim wore her pretty shoes that she didn’t wan’t to get dirty…. why wear nice clothes fishing…. girls… o’well. Anyways I was in luck because she lives on a farm and a calf was out in the pasture were we were fishing and I talked her into taking a picture with the cow, though that little calf had other plans. I circled up to in in a non-threatening manner but, it wouldn’t let me get really close to it so sorry if the picture is blurry. Some lambs were also recently born so I went over to the sheep pen and took a snapshot of one though there was no way I was getting in there with them because they looked angry… it would be embarassing to get mauled by a sheep… I couldn’t live with myself if I got killed by one… : P   

 Saturday I celebrated Kims birthday a little early and gave her the presents and cake that I got her, and dispite her screaming otherwise… I sang her happy birthday as her face got increasingly red. It’s ok though, I am sure she will find some way to get me back. To relaxe a little, I took Josh fishing but he lost interest after only one fish. Didn’t matter to me though, I just wanted him to have fun and I had to have my one fish because I couldn’t bear the agony of getting skunked again. ( skunked is not catching any fish in the fishermanish language) The fish I caugh was incredibly huge but somehow I think the camera took off a good 4-5lbs…..

Anyways, on Sunday my immune system was some how infiltrated and I now have some kind of harsh cold or mild flu… thank you winter! Tune in next week for my Tree Rat Hunting Experience and see what I shoot.  -Z Drak out

Early October

Ok, here is up to October 7th.

Clinicals last week weren’t bad, can’t really say much about

 

them but it was awesome to finnally be able to put what I have learned to the test. Thats me in the nursing uniform, they give us white outfits to try to make us stand out as much as possible i guess…. Besides that it was a dull week.

This week though was pretty exciting, the NACC Presidential Hosts started planning a Halloween party so that is something fun to look forward to. Kim and Josh came over to

visit. Check it out!

 Doesn’t he look hungry? Guess he likes oranges. Next time I am going to try to get more than my hand in the pic. This comming week I am going fishing and hopefully get some good fish pictures. So tune it next week to see me battle the Ferocious Feline Fish!(Cat fish of course)  ——Z Drak Out!

Adventures at the Jackson Co. Fair

Great week! Sept. 17-24

Lots of Stuff went on this week. Here are the highlights:

David Baldacci book signing- Was awesome. I went there as part of the presidential host service hour requirements but still had a great time. We had computer problems, I tried to fix it but my caveman bashing technique did not prove very effective. Here is a pic. of me and another presidential host just goofing off.(if anyone asks I was working hard the entire time )

 Jackson Co. Fair- Pretty fun, just handed out all kinds of free stuff. Most people just wanted to get their hair beautified by the Northeast Cosmotology Department so it was fun getting to see reactions. One of my fellow hosts let them do his hair sparkly and in little pony tails but somehow I managed to resist the temptation of makeup and sparkly hair.

Then just got to hang out with Kim on the weekend as usual.

But thats all of the exciting stuff for this week. Tune in next week to see if our hero survives the dreaded First Clinical!!!!!  Z Drak Out.
