Simply Gabbie's Life

We are expecting a winter storm from noon until 6 a.m. tomorrow. If we stay above freezing, it might not be so bad. That's what I'm hoping. I still feel sick and now, I'm having stomach cramps and nausea. I feel miserable and can't wait until this passes. I just want to get back to my life. I am working on projects for my work while at home and I completed my assignments for class early. I want to keep my average up so as to obtain scholarships. On a happy note, in one month is Spring Break! My cousin Leesa and I are going to be in Eureka Springs for most of the week. We are staying at a Best Western. On the way back, we are visiting Grove, Oklahoma for the day. Next month is going to be a busy month. On March 9-10, I am volunteering at the Big 12 conference at the BOK Center. I am truly excited to put this experience on my resume. On the 15th, I am going on a bus tour sponsored by Tulsa Community College to see the Mother Road. We will have Michael Wallis, the voic...

Things have been so busy around here! I am still working at The TCC Connection and am also volunteering with Campus Activities Board. We are working to get some spring activities around campus. I am applying for various internships and scholarships. I will not close any opportunity and am keeping my options open. Thursday afternoon, I am going for an interview for a part time weekend job to help out with expenses. I am going to volunteer at the Big 12 wrestling championship tournament in March and then go on a day trip with fellow honors students to see the Mother Road in Oklahoma. It has been a busy time and it is only getting busier. I am working hard in my classes to earn the best grades I can. I'm going to try to take as many honors classes as I can so I can graduate as an honors scholar. Gabrielle Farringer Business Manager TCC Connection

Things are changing around here... My husband got a promotion to Assistant Manager at Wal Mart. We are waiting to find out where his job will be. It could be within driving distance of Tulsa, but we aren't for sure. We do know it should be in this area. He has to attend a four week class to be trained in his new job before he is moved. Which means that Japan is postponed until a later date. Another bit of good news...I'm going back to college. I'm attending Tulsa Community College and studying Strategic Communications, otherwise known as Public Relations. I will be finishing my Associates degree there and lack 6-8 classes! I am also being approved for financial aid. I will only be going part time since that is what my aid will cover due to my previous degree. This works out well for me anyway due to having seizures and being unable to take on a full schedule. Once I have completed this degree, I will be attending Oklahoma State University to finish my B.A. in Strate...
