Trying to breathe

As you may have notice, well the only one who might actually read this, I haven't posted anything in awhile and thought that I have some time that I would do an update. August marked me going to school full time and the end of any free time I might have had. I didn't really have that much because I was working so much but I could get a book in here or there. Right now, I don't have the time for anything other than school, work, and clinic.

School is fine. I need to bring up my physics grade (I"m like 2.3 points from my passing grade but I still have four grades before my final grade so it's not undoable.) But I actually understand it this time. Thank God for different teachers. I like all the teachers that I have. I won't post their name because I don't want it to be a breach of confidence, plus I've been schooled on Hippa, so no names here. :) I enjoy film postion class too. We actually have a energized lab and a dummy that we can xray. That is so cool. She has bones and everything. You can't really tell if she is a boy or a girl and some people have named it Pat (after the SNL character) but knowing me, I had to name her something different. I call her Bertha, after Wilhelm Conrad (the one who discovered x-rays) wife. Bertha's full name is Anna Bertha Fay VanHoffman the III. She enjoys canasta and cricket, and used to teach ballet in her younger years.

Clinic is fun. I enjoy it and my clinical instructor keeps telling me that I"m doing well. I like the techs and I just have fun. I love it. I just know that this is what I'm supposed to do. It's awesome.

Work is the same. It is starting to get on my nerves though. Before I was indifferent but now, I'd rather be at school or clinic. I guess my mindset is going through its transfermation. I'm not really sure what that means but it sounds good I guess. I'm still going to stay there but I don't know.

Right now, I'm trying to get over this allergy/sinus thing I have going on. I actually didn't go to school yesterday or work, but I was off. And I didn't go to clinic today which was ok, since we are allowed one personal day a semester. I was feeling better but I still felt a little yucky and I didn't want to go to the hospital feeling all bleach. Especially since I"m supposed to be in the ER this week. But I'm feeling better. I'm still not quite a 100% but I"m getting there. So, that has been my life, or lack there of since August. (I think my next free day, where I don't have to worry about school or work will be Christmas.) Yay. Although I did manage to grab this photo when I was housesitting last week. I think it's God's way of telling me that even though my life (and others) can be very hectic, for a lack of a better word, He's still there and gives us peace.

That was a beautiful photo! Wow.
I"m glad to hear that you're enjoying clinic. I definitely think this is what you're supposed to do too. I'm sure you'll pass physics this time. I heard that there's a new teacher and I'm so glad of that.
