As a former Brownie, Girl Scout cookies are a source of sweet nostalgia for me.  Remembering the days of my elementary school youth, and the Thursday nights spent in a church basement singing songs, doing crafts, etc.  It was a most enjoyable time of my life.  All of these memories come back, just with one taste of that delicious Girl Scout cookie.

I really feel like I've been sitting around all day.  Which is strange because I sat around all day yesterday and didn't have a problem with it, yet I'm totally annoyed by sitting around today.  I think it's because sitting around at school is totally incomparable to sitting around at home.  I had a test in pathophysiology today that I feel okay ( Read more... )

Guess who's competent!!  Why yes, it's me.  All of that anxiety really paid off for me in a big way.  I totally passed.  So thanks to everyone who reassured me of my capabilities, including all the upperclassmen who passed me in the hall, as well as all of my professors.  Also thanks to Stephanie's mom for buying me that lucky granola bar yesterday ( Read more... )

Okay, it is SO unlike me to be nervous about a test, but this competency exam has me all out of sorts.  My hands are shaking, my heart is racing.  I feel like I could throw up.  This is so stupid though.  I totally know what I'm doing here.  And in 15 minutes, I'll prove it.  Why am I so scared?  Happy Valentine's Day.

It seems like this is the only place where I ever feel like updating.  Where am I?  You guessed it.  The computer lab.  Now, I really don't want to sound whiny, but I need to vent, and most of you have heard all this before, but it is really driving me crazy.

There is a serious cheating problem in my class.  And I mean SERIOUS.  It's a reputation ( Read more... )

Here I am again, wasting time in the College of Nursing computer lab.  I bet I could get a lot of work done if I add up all the time I spend in here doing things like updating my LiveJournal rather than something productive (if crazy boring) like homework.  But, in my own defense, I did print out some notes a few minutes ago, so that's something.  ( Read more... )

So my mom just came in here a second ago and told me that one of our neighbors from Norwood just called her to tell us that our old next door neighbor was found dead in his mail truck yesterday.  (He was a mailman).  Apparently foul play isn't suspected, but an autopsy is being performed right now.  It's really quite shocking, and very sad.  I mean ( Read more... )

Who has a quiz later today that they should be studying for?  That'd be me.  What can I say, LiveJournal was beckoning.  The quiz won't be hard anyway, it's just some definitions, and it's all multiple choice.  Piece of cake.  So Amanda and Lauren and I are going to the Louisville Slugger Museum on Saturday because the Reds caravan is stopping ( Read more... )
