Summer has started at our house!

i passed! I figured out my grade again in pharm too and much to my suprise i got an A in there not a b. I have a 92% for that class and for process i got a B. There was only 1 A in the whole class and only 10 B's so i'm proud! lol. We also had 23 c's and 6 people that failed the class and don't get to go on. I'm sad because there are some really awesome people that aren't going to be graduating with us in the end. However i know a couple of them are reapplying for next year so hopefully they will get in and do better their second time around. We started the class with 64 students. We were down to 48 before the final and i think we are down to 42 now. however we have lost more than 22 because we gained about 3 or 4 LPN's in their place. so outta the first 64 i think we are down to 38ish maybe? the last class graduated with 33 total students. I think we may be on track to do the same thing. However for now i'm so excited! Bring on summer!!

OMG!!!

I'm so nervous. I just took my last final. I know that i passed my pharmocology class. I made an 88% in that one and did fine on my final but this one today is nerveracking! I've been checking our website every 5 minutes to see if the grades are posted. So far they aren't but you can see who is online and the teacher is online so i'm assuming she is working on them right now. She sometimes throws out questions. i'm sure that is what is taking so long. I'm just sooo Ready to start my summer break and i won't feel free until i find out what this last grade is. Yikes. So pray i don't have a nervous breakdown today. lol
i'll post when i know more!

well it's day 108978327482 of studying for finals.

I'll be so glad when i have somethin other to write about besides finals coming up. We have been studying like every night and i'm seriously wondering about how much my brain can actually retain. I mean i can't absorb so much info.. lol. I'm sick of tlaking about gastro, and muscoskeletal, and respiratory, and blahbblabhlajb. lol. Allan leaves tomorrow for houston for 5 days. I'm hoping he has a good trip and ocmes back to a wife that has it more pulled together and one who is on summer break. Everyone else is doing good around here too. Lilly is her usual playful self. We went garage sale shopping this morning and she got lots of little toys to play with. She is very happy with her new tent that folds up. she likes crawling in and out of it a million times.

and i did horrible!!!

Okay i don't get it. I have never failed a test. Never!!! well until this morning. you have to have a 75% to pass a test in nursing and i made a 72 which means i failed it this morning. The part i don't get is the tests that i half study for i have always made in the b's and even a couple a's. I studied for this test way more than all the others.. so what happened? did i over study? can you over study? I'm still passing the class but i have to do well on the final now. So we are all getting together and studying some more tonight for our finals. i'll be so glad when this is all done and over! In my defense alot of people said this was the hardest test. i agreed!the rest of my study group got 3 78's and a 62. so could of been worse i guess but i could of been at an 78 with the rest of them. lol. Oh well i'm going to keep moving forward. pray for me this weekend for my finals on monday and tuesday. I may end up needing the prayers.!!
have a great weekend!

This cartoon expresses how i'm feeling. lol

THis little guy could be me totally. I feel like if i have to study for one more thing i might freak out. or like i'm in a daze of big medical words just spinning and spinning. Today is our last test for one class but we still have afinal for that class on tuesday and a pharmacology final on monday. So say a little prayer for me this morning. The better i do on this test the less stressed i'll have to be on the final. Hope everyone is having a good friday! 2 more class days and i'll be on summer break. It didn't feel like it would ever get here. If the weather would catch up we would be doing good!

happy birthday andy!

Just wanted to wish my little brother andy a happy birthday.. let's see your turning how old? i think 25 if my calculations are correct. lol. happy b-day little brother! We all love you and hope you have a great one today. We sent you something but like always it will be a couple days late probably. At best you will get it the day after your birthday!

Us nursing students on our last clinical day

today was my last clinical day till this fall semester when i enter my last year and learn IV stuff. I'm really excited. I still have my finals on monday and tuesday oh and another test on this friday but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. I just have no idea where i'm finding time to do much of anything else.. oh that's right i should be studying. I plan on studying like a mad woman this week and weekend. I guess i'm not feeling so stressed because i figured out my grades and i really need to only get like 30 to 40 questions right on the final. Even on my worst day i have never made below a 78 on a test. So I'm feeling pretty confident. Not that i won't be studying though. lol.
My husband paid me a compliment yesterday. He said" wow honey you sound smart!" lol I thought that was cute. I had no idea i sounded smart. I really don't feel like i have learned that much but i guess i can carry on a conversation about medical stuff now from a beginners level anyway.
Anyway lilly just woke up from a nap so i gotta run

Hope you feel better soon Liz!

Please keep allan's sister in your prayers. She has C diff. It can be a really nasty thing and hard to get over so let's please pray for a speedy recovery with no set backs. Thanks!
