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...

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...
