In the voice of Sylvester...

Suffering Succotash! That's what I currently sound like thanks to my disobedience with my original orthodontist. In January 2003 I got my braces removed to show a new beautiful, straight smile. I didn’t follow instructions and here lately my teeth had started to shift back into their old home. SO… I sucked it up and went back to the ortho, forked over 900 bills and they gave me new pretty pink retainers with springs in them to help move my teeth back into the old, new, straight smile. Now I’m suffering miserably and I sound like a special kid who rides the short bus!! Oh well… it’ll be all worth it because I’ll have that beautiful, straight smile back in about six months and I can move on with my drooling self.

In school news, I have only two weeks. I say only like it is no big deal but the fact of the matter is, these next two weeks are going to be HELL!! PURE HELL!!! I have a microbiology test next week and then the week after that I will have my final anatomy exam PLUS my final micro exam. Let us not forget the 2000 word minimum, 6-8 page paper I have to write for sociology. Working title: Sociology and Me. I know right? I puked in my mouth a little too. I’m taking the sociology online so I’ve been able to work ahead so I can leave plenty of study time for anatomy and micro. I also need to sit down and make my cheat sheet for my micro final exam. We get to use a card for the test and I already know what I’m putting on it: chemistry and antimicrobial drugs. Two of the things I couldn’t remember for the life of me and failed miserably on previous tests. LOL.

I’ve registered for my summer class, which funny enough, is Intro to Chemistry. I’m taking this class online because I plan to have foot surgery this summer. I went to the foot doc today and he told me the pain in the bottom of my foot is plantarfasciitis which is the inflammation of the tendons in my foot. Sounds like fun right? Wrong! It hurts like a mother effer! So after we get this taken care of, by taking an anti-inflammatory, wearing arch support insoles and a really, really tight sock, it should go away. Then after that we plan to work on those annoying bunions that have been killing me ever since I can remember. He said I am in the “moderate stage” and that it will be a fairly simple surgery to take care of them. I will be in a walking boot for about 5 weeks and we can only do one foot at a time. I’m totally going to do the left one first because I have to drive Cami to summer gym/band camp every day this summer. He also said there shouldn’t be any need for crutches. Yay me! I hate those suckers. Anyway… I think I’ve written enough today so I’m out! PEACE!!

Until next time...

Itchy anus what?

On Tuesday I had a microbiology lab exam and I was so scared I was going to bomb it! A lot of what I needed to study was worms and their life cycle. I had remembered ALL of the worms and their eggs but I couldn't for the life of me remember HOW humans get them and WHAT they do to humans so I didn't get a lot of that part of the question right. But my favorite one of all, the worm that gives you anal itching, I got RIGHT!!! (that would be the enterobius vermicularis-or pinworm to those who are keeping score) Anyway, I got my test results today and I got a 75%!!! I'm so excited! I know, I know... a 75? you ask... but trust me... this is GREAT news for me considering how nervous I was about this test to begin with. The last thing I have to do is my final exam for lab on this coming Tuesday and if I do well on it, it will replace the sucky grade I received on our first lab exam... which I am too embarassed to tell you what it was! (*cough*65*cough*)

Well that's the only thing new with me. I have to work tonight and I'm totally not looking forward to it, especially with this FABULOUS weather we are having!!!

Until next time...

I'm Alive!!!!

So Christmas was a really busy time and then we went to Florida for a quick vacation over New Years and by the time we got back it was time for the kids to get ready to go back to school. THEN.... a week after that I started my new semester. I'm busy lazy right now to look and see if I already posted my grades, but I ended up with 3 A's and one B last semester. I made the Dean's List yet again! Go me! Anyway, this semester is going to be a bitch! Microbiology? I mean seriously??? I will keep you updated on my progress.

I can't write a whole lot right now because I've got class tonight so... time to clean house before I leave!! Ahhh!!! Have a great day!!

This is classic

I found this over at Dooce's website (link to the left) and it reminded me SO MUCH of my husband and how he acts that I just had to steal it and post here for everyone to see. Enjoy!!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

Hey all! Sorry I haven't written in a long time. I've been busy with school and finals and getting ready for Christmas. I've finally finished all of my holiday shopping. I can't tell you what the girls are getting because they might read this! Hehe... so I will have to fill you in at another time! However I can give you updates on school! I've got all of my grades posted and here they are:

Math 111 - B
Psychology 101 - A
English 112 - A
Anatomy & Physiology - A

Look out Dean's List here I come!!!! I'm so excited because Anatomy and Psychology are two of the class (of 4) that I need to have an A in to get into the nursing program. You are to get an A in Anatomy 101 & 102, English 111 and Psychology. So far I have A's in three of those classes. I will take Anatomy 102 in January and hopefully will receive an A there as well. Wish me luck!

As for the holidays, if I don't post anymore this year, have a Merry Christmas, (or other holiday you celebrate!) and a happy new year!!! Be blessed in 2008!!
