One Ending Leads to Another Beginning
March 16, 2009 12:09 PM by Travis Bankhead
With class finished up one would think it would be smooth sailing all around. Unfortunately that's now how life works. I am leaving tomorrow for NY for my internship and I have yet to pack one item as of now. Albeit my fault, it still is an unfortunate Read More...

Only a Couple of Weeks Left
February 20, 2009 7:29 AM by Travis Bankhead
It seems so hard to believe that I only have two weeks of class left before we go on spring break and all head off tour our internships. That's right, in three short weeks I will be in NY, working at an EHR company for a total of five weeks. It just seems Read More...

Our midterm on Wednesday in our finance class wasn't actually that bad. I went over some problems with Cristin on Tuesday during the day and then went over my notes that night. I think that I did really well on it and I am anxious to see what my grade Read More...

Winter Blast
January 29, 2009 8:25 AM by Travis Bankhead
Today we all woke up to freezing rain and frozen sidewalks. It was not a fun walk to class today to say the least. Thankfully we only had one class today, financial management, which I actually was on time for despite our unfortunate weather conditions. Read More...

Technology Troubles
January 21, 2009 10:03 AM by Travis Bankhead
So as I think I mentioned before we have our EHR class in an online format. Our book comes with a CD that has a virtual EHR that we are supposed to use to build our own electronic health record so we are able to see the formats and how everything works. Read More...

The Beginning of the End
January 13, 2009 7:57 AM by Travis Bankhead
It's finally the beginning of my last semester and I am getting really excited to graduate. This semester is a lot of independent work for us so I feel that it is really preparing us for the real world when you don't have someone checking up on you every Read More...

Finals Crunch
December 9, 2008 7:52 AM by Travis Bankhead
Well it's finally the end of the semester and I'm pretty much at my wits end. I've been having an erratic sleep pattern and pretty much going crazy, but it will all be over on Wednesday! Last week I turned in my twenty hour project and also presented Read More...

All About Law
November 17, 2008 7:43 AM by Travis Bankhead
After working on our senior proposal last weekend, we turned it in this week and we got really good feedback so I'm sure our project should be approved soon. It will take a little while for us to get the final word but I have a good feeling about it. Read More...

November 10, 2008 9:01 AM by Travis Bankhead
So this week was a very monumental week. First the election was very exciting being that we elected our first African American President. I'm very excited and proud of our country for making an excellent choice, in my opinion. We had a nice discussion Read More...

Time Keeps Flying By
October 30, 2008 10:35 AM by Travis Bankhead
I swear that I've lost track of time because I don't even know where last week went or what even happened. All I know is that before I turned around it was gone and so was all of its precious time it contained. This week has already been slightly hectic Read More...

Back from the AHIMA Convention
October 20, 2008 9:00 AM by Travis Bankhead
I'm back from my little stint in Seattle at the convention and I must say that this traveling around has left me a little run down and with a cold. Unfortunately for me I have my clinical e-mail update due this week as well as my human resources midterm Read More...
