a MONTH?!

Holy crap, its been over a month and no post, geesh. I guess life has just been crazy lately, I totally forget about this blog, I wish I spent more time writting each day, it helps to clear my thoughts.

Totally bummed out today...I failed my first nursing exam! I got a 74, and you need a 75 to pass. Its my own fault, I totally blew off studying this weekend to be with Michael, I figured I could just "wing it" and I was totally wrong, ugh! So now I have to get a write up and go see my instructor to discuss the grade and how to prevent it from happening again. The good thing is that I have gotten all 90's or above up until this point, so I am no where near failing, plus I have 10 extra credit points from volunteering this semester, so I can just pretend I got an 84 and call it even, lol.

On a side note, I get to go to the operating room tomorrow all day, I am so excited! The OR has always facinated me, I just love surgery, so I am excited for this rotation.


Even better news, the cruise is coming up shortly, we leave on the 20th of this month. I cant WAIT!!!! I am so thankful to have a soon-to-be-mother-in-law like Val (Michaels mom), she bought our cruise tickets for us, and she bought them last year when I hadnt even been around for that long! She must REALLY like me. She is an amazing woman, and aside from my mother I cant think of another woman I admire as much as her. She has so many qualities that are just different from my own Mom (who is the most amazing woman on this earth), and its just really nice that Val and I have become so close. You always hear horror stories about mother in laws, and I know I wont ever have to deal with that.

Happy thought of the day: School is out next monday, wooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
