PH 663 (2nd time around)

Howdy all! Yes, I am the girl who took this class last semester and dropped it on the final add/drop date. Honestly I was scared $#@&-less of all the work this class entails. Public speaking does not really float my boat, but I have to bite the bullet some time. Anyhoo....my blog I created (and gleefully abandoned) last semester is still alive and kicking (although not yet too exciting): http://shelbsinsd.blogspot.com/. I am a bit technologically stunted and admit that I watched my first Youtube video a mere two months ago (sheepish grin.) However, what I took away from class on Monday was that communication is everywhere today and to not take advantage of the different outlets available I consider a great disservice to the people whose lives we are trying to improve. Having said that, I am exited this semester to be introduced to new tools and skills of health communication and to have the chance to apply them in the real world. (About me you will also learn I write using stream of consciousness, really long sentences and mixed-up syntax.) I have found some funny health-related articles on the web, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the link on the page for your viewing pleasure. I'll tinker a bit...
