Had a really good day today. Mostly because we learned clinical skills- the pelvic exam. Our school as really good models to practice on which is a good thing because some people were all thumbs! it was amusing to say the least. They said I did surprisingly well for my first time. I was pretty proud. But I did pay attention and go towards the end. You get all the benefit of the correction of the others that way but you also have a higher expectation because they expect you to pay attention and learn from the mistakes of others.
Tomorrow will be a busy day, we get to learn the prostate exam, again on a life like model. They do make us talk to the models like there were really there so that we won't be as creepy when we see real patients. And everyone today kept getting hit (literally) for saying "s" words. Some of those are spread and stick. biiiiggg no-nos. Haha. It's amazing how far we'll have come at the end of this. Who knew you would have to hit the first 5 students in a row for using S words?? Too funny. Great day.

supper with the Jackson's! -done and delicious!! lot so left overs!
AMAZING PATIENT!!! For my 5th H&P, i got to see a patient with Hereditary Angioedema. We're actually doing research right now to create cases in order to test doctors, fellows, residents and medical students. The current cases are about angioedema, a life threatening condition which periodically causes your throat to swell up. She presents to the ER very frequently and therefore LSU knows her and knows what to do. If she goes to the other area hospitals she either gets too much or not enough treatment b/c they aren't use to dealing with this condition on a regular basis. It was such an amazing experience just to get to talk to her and spend some with her as she waited to be discharged. Her baby sister is currently at another area hospital delivering her first baby. Everyone is so excited and she was anxious to be discharged so that she could go and see the baby. She's amazing and I had the greatest time! God is sooo good.

i need your help
Well, it's official, no more studying in public. Also, no more tid-bits for everyone since everything thinks you're pretty perverted if you give the latest tid-bit on the human reproductive system. no matter if it's male or female.
but there is something I would like to ask of everyone. This is the last test of our school year. It's getting harder and harder to stay motivated. In an effort to learn self-motivation. I plan to make a check list every morning related to school and post it here. What I am asking of those who love me is accountability via email or text. Please help me out on this. whether you want to email everyday or whether you would just do it as you think about it, i would really appreciate it. I am a people-pleaser and nothing is more motivating to me than the approval of those I love. I value each and every one of you so much that I would rather bust my butt than to let you down.... as you can tell this isn't exactly the definition of self motivating but that's why I need work on it! Thank you in advance for your support. This will only be until the 11th of April, 17 days from today.

Decisions, Decisions
OK, it's been a while and I have some things I would like to blog about. But right now, I have one thing front and center on my brain. That would be Boards! I feel like I need to hurry up and schedule my date on when to take them because spots in Shreveport are filling up. It would be nice to take them in Bossier rather than having to drive to Alexandria, Tyler, Beaumont, Lafayette, or Baton Rouge. (yup, Lake Charles doesn't have a Prometric center...)
I am looking at the week of June 21-25. Only the 23, 24, and 25 are available in Shreveport. The course I am taking in Dallas ends on the 17th. I am really praying hard to know how much time I need to leave myself or not leave myself in order to the best that I am able to do. I would appreciate you prayers on this one. I've talked to others but it's pretty much an individualize things (or so they tell me). Everyone is different, some need more time, some need to have less time.
I appreciate your prayers for me whenever I start that long haul beginning in May. It'll be the hardest test I've ever taken and require more studying and I've ever had to do in my life. they highly recommend 12 hours a day, 6 days a week. You get a break and only have to study 8 hours on the 7th day. Ain't that nice? yea.. i'm terrified!
