Day 27: September 23rd, 2009

Quote of the day: "Love, the magician, knows this little trick whereby two people walk in different directions yet always remain side by side. – Hugh Prather"

Today was better than yesterday, thank GOD! I had class today, and it was a really early morning after not getting any sleep, but I managed to get to the carpool meeting spot just a few minutes late, WHEW! It would have helped if when I went to bed I actually checked the volume on the alarm clock instead of just turning the alarm on and leaving it, but I didn't, and after a night of very little sleep I woke up exhausted, and late. HOWEVER, that being said... I got to school and found out that the tests were graded incorrectly so I ACTUALLY GOT AN 82, NOT A 78!!!!! WOOOHOOOOO!!!!!! And if I hadn't been a dummy and messed up on the math calculations I would have gotten a B on the test! And, of course, there was that one question where I KNEW the right answer but my hand must have been arguing with me. Duh!

I came home and finished my assignment with enough time to gather my things together for clinicals tomorrow. I'll have patient care, so there's no telling what I will do or what I will need. I just hope that whatever patient I get does not have a thousand medications, because it will take me forever to write them down, as well as to write up the drug information for the concept map homework. And the labs, those take forever to write up too! But at least I'll be doing what I enjoy, ACTUALLY DOING SOMETHING. It's not nearly as fun when you have the specialty rotations, because all you're doing is following someone around and watching. It's much better doing, if you ask me.

Anyways, I have GOT to get to bed, because 5am is going to come early, and the 12 hour days are killers! Oh, wait....

I have a slight problem... I was so busy today trying to get my homework done that when I did my laundry, I just threw it on the bed to "fold it after my homework was done". Well, now I am tired and needing to go to bed, and the laundry is still sitting there.... staring at me.... Looks kind of comfy, doesn't it? ;)
