Last test!!!!

Ok, So tomorrow is my last test. This is a great thing and a not so great thing at the same time because there is so much that I want to do before then. So I've got my work cut out for me and I definitely need your prayers.

such a short list yet so exhausting just to look at!!

Thursday

yesterday was a test question day. I typically get tired when taking tests. in the second hour, my brain gets tired and I start marking answers based on gut feeling and words that I recognize. The problem is that I must look at every question critically because they are trying to trick you by placing words in there that I recognize. My gut, I'm learning, is simply an organ for processing food and should not be relied upon to determine a correct answer...after all, that gut feeling was probably just breakfast.

Today, I have a lot to do but I'm running low on focus and energy. Today is our last day of lecture for our last test of our second year or medical school. How crazy is that??! I feel like this fact should give me energy but to be honest, I am very very tired. I would just go to sleep but I haven't found how to cover the guilt of not studying! (free gift from medical school)! haha

Tuesday

Roger is heading out today to go to a conference in the Baton Rouge. He's really excited about getting to spend some time with the church staff. I still am not sure what the conference is about but I just know everyone's excited to spend time together. Warren Jackson (the music minister) cooked for us again last week and sent me home with a lot of food so I'll be set for the week. I just need to remember to fix it and eat it! I do the typical: get busy, get really really really hungry and then eat the first thing I can find and call it a day).

Pray for the guys that they have a great, safe trip.

Monday

Sunday was an amazing day off. I meant to read in two of my review books, but that didn't really happen and I just enjoyed the day off. It was amazing. Saturday night was also great!! Watched Knight and Day, Roger and I both loved it! Great dry humor. Absolutely wonderful. We ate sushi and drank Dr. Pepper. I had ice cream with turtle shell. Roger had strawberry cheese cake with ice cream on the side! It was absolutely wonderful. Today, we just had pathology labs where we review things we've already been taught. then we had a lecture from a lawyer telling us what to do when we get sued. He explained the entire process to us and what we should and shouldn't do. It was very interesting. Did you know that Louisiana has a cap on what you can get from your doctor?! it's 100,000. Which is great if you're a doctor and have insurance. Not everyone gets the cap, only if you do certain things and keep up certain paperwork, etc. etc. I don't really understand it all.

But my list for today is to read First Aid, and Goljans. And do some old Test questions.

Yesterday was wonderful, relaxing and refreshing. I slept great, got to talk to Bethany and Dad. Got my hair cut and colored. Had a wonderful dinner with my hubby. Overall, it was wonderful.....it just wasn't productive. I didn't get done anything for school, I didn't even get around to making a to-do list! That's how great it was!

New day, new list, new accomplishments!
