I'm back.
After seven exams in a week and a half and two major projects I am absolutely exhausted. When I start to study I tend to get into a zone and forget about the time until it is way to late and past my bed time. Fortunately for me it paid off and I did very well on all the exams I have gotten back. Only a couple more weeks and it will start all over again as the second round of mid terms come around. But providentially they are a little more spread out next time so it won't be two or three exams a day.
For about 2 weeks I carried around several stacks about this size of cue cards so I could study any where. These cards contain anything you could possibly want to know about the human body and its functions and a ton of medical terms. These are my best study tool.
On a high note I have received my scrubs and have had 2 clinicials at the extended care centre. It was so exciting even though it almost feels like the staff thinks we are in the way and in a way we really are. We have been at school for 6 weeks and our skills are just the very basic of skills. My mom will be excited to learn that I have learned how to make a bed (a skill she thinks I lack) and just for the record the way we learned is very precise and it was a two page list of all the steps involved. I never knew making a bed could be so complicated, but mom you would be proud of beds I now can make. They look perfect.
Now I had very good intentions of blogging more about the wedding with pictures and stories but I didn't take any pictures that day so I am waiting for Jason to send down a cd with the pictures he took. I was actually amazed at how some of the pictures he took turned out he is becoming an amazing photographer and I hope he stays with it. And along with a wedding blog comes a post about the wedding pranks and unfortunately I also forgot my camera for these so I will try describe them as best as possible. The first was on wedding with the saran wrapping of the car ( i wasn't responsible for this one but it was fun seeing Richard's reaction). The second one was on thanksgiving and the day of the return of the happy couple. We didn't do too much but we did saran wrap the toilets, and put a layer of dixie cups filled with water across all of the bathroom floors. We then blew up about 200 hundred balloons and filled about 50 more with water and we filled both bathrooms up with balloons and closed the door. Then we streamered the house. Actually I should say we streamered the house first which was not a good idea on our part because everytime we had to go back and forth between bathrooms we had to pull out our mission impossible moves. I think it was more fun for the group of us that put it up then for richard and michelle as the had to take it down.
A lot more has happened in the last couple weeks but this post is getting long and I need to shower before I head to work at five. I will post again soon.

I'm so thrilled that you have finally learned to make up your bed, I think that you have always known how, it just wasn't important to you! You had better keep practicing at home :) I'm glad that your exams are over with for a while, things should get easier now that your health has improved. The doctor told Shauna she had to be on bed rest until Monday and she has the same thing you had! Give me a call later if you have time.
Oh and by the way the scrubs look great!! Very professional :)
Cute scrubs! and very jealous that you got to pull pranks on mich and Richard. We didn't even think about that!
