Reflections from today

More class today- test in the first class, movie and lecture in the second....here's some random thoughts from my day...

-is it just me or does everyone else have an obsessive need to fill in the scantron rectangle exactly right with no going over the lines? First of all, I much prefer the circles. Those rectangles are harder to fill in. Second of all, it takes way to long to do it without making ugly scribbles around the box. And sometimes part of the box isn't colored in all the way which is just a complete disaster

-I really am going to have to talk to the professor and request that she start running these questions by me before assembling the tests... cause I REALLY do not approve of these questions...or these answers...I mean on some of them she is just wrong

-woo hoo! I have time to run get an evil frozen chocolate peanut butter coffee frappe!

-where is Jennifer? doesn't she know to wait patiently outside the door until I am done taking my test so we can go get coffee together? geez... inconsiderate...

-ok too bad for Jennifer- getting coffee on my own....

-ugh back in here again....

-woo hoo again! out an hour early! two hours for lunch!

-there's the pesky mommy guilt over being in school---- stick that back in the denial folder...

-mmmmm.... lunch....

-ok that was creepy as hell....  (this one I have to explain cause it WAS creepy as hell- our professor had a movie on respiratory drugs paused waiting on her explanation of some things- she was explaining that you don't use epinephrine on just mild or moderate respiratory problems- that you use it when its either that or your patient dies on you. And right as she said dies this creepy "zombies rising from the graves" music from the beginning of the movie starts playing all on its own....wie-erd!)

-you have got to be kidding me- you're turning the lights off in this warm room after I just took a test and then ate lunch? And I have to stay awake? right...

-oh my gosh she did NOT just spell angle "a-n-g-e-l"

-is "food fetish" the BEST way to describe a slight phobia about certain foods?

-ok and now she just pronounced dilation - "dill-i-ta-tion"... wow...

-and finally... as the girl who is rapidly gaining a reputation for being way to talkative and excited during any sort of group discussion mentions that she sells nutritional supplements.... "of course you do...."

How bout some flair just for fun?


I have no idea why this flair won't let me arrange it all pretty on the page - it's really bugging the crap out of me (see button on OCD). As I've already stated in this blog, I love my flair. Haven't added any in a while so I added some nursing flair yesterday. Then I looked up some stupid people flair because I've been a tad grumpy about certain stupid people messing up some stuff in my life. Perhaps flair is like grocery shopping- you shouldn't grocery shop when you're hungry and you shouldn't flair shop when you're grumpy about stupid people. Don't worry though- my future patients can be as stupid as they like- I don't mind it so much in people I don't know. ;)
