Today, I have taken, “The TechBudde Report,” out of commission of the Budde Media Network, since I do not have the time or resources to work on show notes, record the show and edit the show. School, Work, Extracurriculars and all of my shows keeps me too busy to do the show. You still can listen to past episode of the show here.

This week there is not going to be an episode of Wetpaint Nation or Talk Careers with Josh Budde as I have been so busy this week. I was out of school on Monday, as I was not feeling well and that put me behind school and work wise. I did not have a chance to find someone to interview for the show (Talk Careers with Josh Budde) or prepare show notes for Wetpaint Nation. Although, Rob White, Logan and I will still be hosting The New Media Roundtable on TalkShoe tonight at 8/7C, which is a part of the NMP Network.

On top of being busy with catching up with catching up with email, tests, notes and the web this week I have been working on a story, which you have possibly seen a previous (pre-version) of it. It is a new version of the NCIO Series of Stories that I have begun re-writing. There are over 20 new characters that appear in this brand new version of the series and I am going to be removing the previous version very, very soon. I have been having a fantastic time working on the new version of the Story Series and I think anyone that likes crime stories or crime television shows will think this is an interesting story series.

Today, I signed up for Broadcasting Club because I have special interests in that area. They were also in need of Announcers, Producers, Directors and Cameramen… With that, I decided to join!

Those that my tweet earlier today, know that I have decided to run for Vice President as a Sophomore next school year. I also signed up for Mock Trial at Orientation in August, I do not know when it starts and I will let you all know when I begin Mock Trial.

Thats right and I’ve always been somebody who likes to plan ahead, that means thinking about what I would like to do. I’ve typed a blog post about this before, I thought that I would put an update out about what I would like to do for college and as a career.

Bachelors Degree

I plan to apply to Cornell University’s Agriculture and Life Sciences for Biological Science and I know, this is expensive at approximately $37,000 a year and it adds up to about $148,000 for the Bachelors Degree (4 years). This allows me to go on a track of “pre-vet” to become a Veterinary Student following my undergraduate education

When it comes to scholarships, I have already applied for two scholarships (I start my Freshmen on September 8th) and I plan to apply for many, many more…

Professional Degree

After completing a B.S. in Biological Science I plan on continuing my Science education and love for animals by becoming a Veterinary Student and completing a D.V.M (Doctor of Veterinary Medicine) degree. I plan to apply to Cornell Veterinary School as well.

As long as I get licensed and such in Veterinary Medicine, I plan to do an internship in Small Animal Medicine & Surgery (12 month rotations) and specialize in Small Animal Internal Medicine and Small Animal Surgery. Which should bring me to a total of 6 to 7 years of additional Veterinary training (1 internship, 2 residencies).

Entering a new building is definitely something I am not used to, so this will take a few times of traveling the High School to get used to where my classes are and how to get to them on time… Speaking of on time, my 4th Block class (Earth Science) is two doors down from my 3rd block class during the 1st semester.

I already hold two credits entering the high school, needing only three more to become a Sophomore (10th grade) next year (2010-2011). Those credits come from Middle School Spanish (which I scored a 96% on the State Proficiency Exam) and Career and Financial Management.

I also had the chance to signup for a few extra curricular activities, like Mock Trial and the Fall and Spring musicals (I signed up for those), although there are many, many others! Several of which the Middle School did not have.

Semester 1

Block 1, A Day – Global I
Block 1, B Day – Algebra

Block 2 – English 1
Block 3 – Spanish II
Block 4 – Earth Science

Semester 1 lunch is Block 3B.

Semester 2

Block 1, A Day – Global I
Block 1, B Day – Algebra

Block 2 – Spanish III
Block 3 – Physical Education
Block 4 – Earth Science

Semester 2 lunch is Block 3D.

The Spanish State test is on Monday, June 22nd at 8am; from taking the Practice exam earlier it seems pretty east… Tomorrow I will be taking another practice exam, starting with the Listening portion. The following day we will take the written portion (part 3 & 4) of the practice exam.

The Math Final Exam will most likely be easy because it is only 25 questions and most of this year’s math content was quite easy. There is a lot that could show up on this; but with the review we have started, it shouldn’t be too difficult! This test is next Thursday at 11am ET (for me).

I have taken the English State Test, the Math State Test, the Science one and Social Studies — here comes my final state test for the year and then I will be on to the summer with entry to High School next September.

Middle School – Being in my final year of Middle School, I plan on completing it with a good ending. I plan for at least a 91 final grade for 8th grade!

High School – Chances are I will only be in High School for three years, because according to my Calculations I will only have 1.5 credits left in my Senior year and will be able to complete my Senior year in my Freshman year of college (Senior Year of HS)… I plan to get Early admission – I also would like a 93 in High School along with at least a 1400 on my SAT and a 30 on my ACT.

Bachelors Degree(s) – I hope to achieve a degree in Forensic Chemistry and Behavioral Science. I am hoping to get admitted to both at the same time; along with those, I hope to minor in Computer Science.

Grad/Professional Degree(s) – When it comes to my Professional / Graduate Degrees, I would like to achieve a Law Degree, a Masters and a Ph.D. in Behavioral Science with a Concentration in Criminal Justice.

This week, I will have rehearsal Monday thru Friday from 2:30 to 6:00PM and Thursday is Previews for Students and Staff of the School.

Friday is Opening Night at 7PM and Saturday is the 2nd and Third Showing… 12PM and 7PM — following the final showing is the Cast Party for Cast and Crew.

Here is a little low down of what has happened with me over the past few weeks. The biggest news was that I made it to the Cast of our Spring musical at School, “Alice in Wonderland” and I am glad I made it as I said in the post about me making it. Along with that I have been working on my computer that I rarely ever use anymore and I am turning it into a Linux Webserver, details on that will come soon. Turns out, not as much has happened since last breaks, but thats always okay.

I am off from school until January 5th and I am glad! — Well, thats it for this post; I’ll have a new writing piece regarding a Christmas murder on the “NCIO Series” sometime right after Christmas.

I thought it was great to have a day off right before break starts, which happens to start on Wednesday, December 24th. Currently, winds are still powerful, we have 2 foot drifts and 11 inches or more snow.

I found out that I made it on Monday and I had our first rehearsal today, it was just informational though. I got the part of a Jack, which is a Card that Dances. We have 9 weeks of practice before we open for the public for this thing.

I’d like to personally thank everyone and I mean everyone when I say this, that has given me luck and helped me through the audition and until yesterday when I found out. I don’t have another rehearsal until after break, which starts on Wednesday, December 24th or… Tuesday, December 23rd at 2:22PM, to be exact!
