Skateboarding is a good idea.

I just got a long board from a fellow blogger, Jessi Wright.  She gave me her old skate deck and wheels; all I had to do was buy new trucks.  Palmer doesn't have dorms on the west campus, but it is fortunately located directly next to an apartment complex called North Park.  I've been living in North Park pretty much since I started going to school out here.  To put it lightly, North Park apartments is jawesome.  They have a 10 swimming pools, mad hot tubs, an indoor basketball court, 5 gym/workout rooms, and 30-some gas barbeque grills all hooked up to the community's gas line.  There are a lot of people from school that live here, which strengthens our school's student body relations.  It is also cool to skateboard to class instead of drive.  I don't have a car out here, and I get along perfectly fine.  There's a light rail station right next to Palmer and North Park, and all of my friend's have cars so I can always hitch a ride with them in exchange for hugs or home made spaghetti.  That's all for now.  Good luck to the 5th quarter students who have CCEP's tomorrow!  ...more to come - an explanation of CCEP's...stay tuned....

Rachel Awbry

Rachel Awbry is the student services officer at our school.  She just got a new office with an awesome window so she can view the beautiful San Jose weather from her desk.  The best part about Palmer is that every administrator knows who you are because we are such a small school.  As a matter of fact, it is easy to be friends with administrators on facebook, which only further strengthens the relationship between students and faculty.  Rachel is in charge of the bloggers, so technically she is my boss.  However, she is a nice boss because she maintains a healthy boutique of candy on her desk, which is an indication to me that she cares.  We are all very lucky to have her and the candy she provides so I would like to blog a congratulations to her and her brand spankin' new office!  Come visit and check it out!  The window is unreal.

fourth quarter...

...is AWESOME.  I really enjoy having Dr. Waagan again.  He is a professor at our school that embarked on the first recorded randomized clinical trial for chiropractic research.  He also happens to be the man.  At Palmer, Dr. Waagan teaches students for only two quarters.  For first quarter, you are still antiquating yourself to the school and of course becoming comfortable with professors.  After developing this relationship with Dr. Waagan first quarter, fourth quarter allows students to get to know him even better.  Aside from Dr. Waagan, fourth quarter is exciting because we students begin to receive credits for adjusting.  We are also beginning to look at X-ray film and translating our anatomy knowledge to a new medium.  The lab is very interesting.  Come to Palmer and hang out in the library with me so we can look at X-rays!
