Angel, you are hell and gone from Cartagena....
Today was quite the day. I took my last final (*insert applause here*) and scraped by with two As and a B, because they don't give +'s... and with the exception of that B... I am pretty pleased, and damn happy to be done.
Don't get me wrong, I am not the kid that has a problem with Bs, especially given the current madness of 50+ hours a week of classes and clinical, but I had an 89 in the class. And if that isn't crazy making, I don't know what is.
But enough bitching. No, wait, not yet...
The exam I had today was Pharmacology, and I studied my ass off, and got in there and didn't recognize a single thing on the first page of the exam. Has that ever happened to you? The blank stare. The double checking just to make sure you're not going insane. The moment of panic. My first reaction is to promptly burst into tears, which I did. But I got through it, and luckily she wound up dumping some of the questions from our final scores.
I'm DONE, suckas!
To top the day off, we had the first meeting of a new MEPN student group that I have started with some of my classmates. That's right --- it's time for a revolution. Well, not really. No mutiny here. Just trying to figure out how to change a few things and figure out what we can do to help ourselves through this experience. It feels good to do something to move forward. Usually I just let shit get to me and then stay in bed all day. This time it's different. This time I'm trying to do something about it instead of just perseverating and whining and pulling the covers over my head.
Let's see if the motivation keeps up. But it's there now....
I want to see Napoleon Dynamite.

Wooo hooo!!! Mucho congratulations! Heh...I'm gonna take pharmacology starting next month. Did you get an A in it regardless? I'm gonna try to hang on to the rollercoaster ride.
