Teri - Part-Time Evening Fall '09

Phew....long week
May 6, 2010 - 12:00 AM

OK, so I managed to pass the Myology quiz on Monday, the Pathology 1 FINAL on Wednesday, and oh let;s not forget Sports' final tonight.

Let's just say, I was grateful for the massage that followed. 

Next week.....CHAIR!!!!!!  Bring it on!!!!

Joe - Part Time Morning '08

Smells So Sweet
April 2, 2009 - 12:00 AM

This week we are learning about aromatherapy. Vickie, our instructor is quite animated. She is having no trouble keeping our interest as she imparts her vast knowledge of essential oils and their benefits to health and wellness. Today our olfactory sense was bombarded by one tantalizing scent after another. Of course all this has a purpose. The course on aromatherapy is designed to give us the basics on custom designing our own massage oils and lotions to utilize in our own massage practices. After creating our own personal blends, we'll get to try them out on each other on the last day of class, by doing a bodywork exchange. This is all light hearted, albeit important learning, and just the course we need to end our fourteen month trek along the road to becoming massage therapists. For this is also our last week of school with graduation coming up on Saturday.

 

As I look back on the posts I've written over the course of the past year, I'm constantly reminded of the many events, some of them pretty prominent, that I neglected to write about. Not to mention other happenings that others in my class experienced and I didn't. I'm prone to wonder what moments of our journey would have been recorded, had all my classmates posted entries on this site. Certainly they would have chosen to spotlight any number of the events I omitted in place of the ones I wrote about. Thus, I am overcome with a sense of humility for having the privilege of representing my class during our sojourn here at CNW. Being just one among twenty-two students, it is plain to see why my anecdotes, as numerous as they are, only constitute a small fraction of the myriad of pieces that form the mosaic of the Part-Time Morning 08 (PTM08) class experience. So even though I could only provide a glimpse (my glimpse) of the picture that only we as a class can see, I hope it was enough to convey at least the spirit of who we are. Not only am I humbled, but I'm also deeply grateful to my classmates and to the instructors and staff of CNW for being the phenomenal group of people they are. I can truly say that because of them, each one of my journal entries was written with pride. In concluding my last journal entry, I'd like to express these thoughts to my PTM08 classmates: 

 

The love, trust and respect we've fostered over these past fourteen months, we now get to pack in our hearts and carry with us as we embark on our careers as LMT's. Each time my path crosses one of yours in the future, it will be cause to celebrate and feel comforted by the presense of a kindred spirit. I look forward to those times. May they be many. I am confident each of you will find the prosperity you aim to achieve. You are made of iron wills and tender hearts. Those are ingredients of a smell that Aromatherapy can't concoct; the Sweet Smell of Success!

 

Luv Ya Guys
