First of all, some of you may not have heard from me in a while, or if you have they were uncharacteristically short and boring. Reason being we have been wrapping up everything with classes etc as I explained in the last post. Which then marked the start of the hellish grind to the finish. Last Friday was last day of classes, then Interdepartmental Case. 30min lunch break with Megan. Last PaCe quiz till 3 (*almost* stabbed one of my table ‘colleagues’. But didn’t. Although it would have made for a better story if I did). Then went to SIM lab to practice heartsounds, airway management, and some other skills for my Clinical Skills Practical exam. Finally got back to my apartment. Sat down on my bed. And just stared at the wall in silence. Hand tremor. Trying to figure out if I will go into fetal position on the bed? Or hug my knees and rock-back-and-forth? Turned out neither. I was just frozen as I starting thinking about all I still have to get through before the exams this week.
Ten minutes later. I pulled my mental shit together, put on my big-girl-panties, and went back to the barn to study the rest of the night. Saturday and Sunday were spent all day in the barn studying. Maybe you can try to picture me: wearing my baggy purple scrub bottoms, huge sweater, with the hood up, glasses on, headphones in. In essence I oozed ‘don’t-even-think-about-talking-to-me-or-you’ll-be-stabbed-or-at-least-cut’.
Monday – histology practical exam (cumulative semesters 1 and 2)
Tuesday – Mini 3 exam (reproductive and integumentary)
Wednesday – Anatomy lab practical exam
Thursday – Clinical Skills practical exam
And finally… on Tuesday the 16th will be the final exam.
So close to being home for a GLORIOUS break!
What. A boring update. Sorry.

whoa so he really stopped coming to the barn? Does his girlfriend study in there? That is just way too much drama!
