It’s been a while

I know, I know.  I’ve been incognito for a little while, but I have my reasons.  First, my computer crashed and burned!  Second, the past few weeks at school have been quite busy.  The workload never lessens, and we are getting into the meat and potatoes of history taking and physical exam techniques, all which require loads of practice time. 

Nevertheless, I’m really enjoying my time here.  As the days go by, I find myself becoming more and more comfortable with my classmates, and my time management skills are being put to the test.  That feeling of excitement is still present, and I’m hoping to hold onto it for as long as possible.

Spring break begins this Thursday, and in approximately 48 hours I will be in the arms of the cop…and Linc will be in my arms!   I can’t wait to see them, and my mother, sister and stepfather.  I’ll be there for about 6 days, which isn’t nearly enough time to see all the people I want to see.  However, I’ve already got plans to meet up with the salsa family on Friday night, and my old coworkers want to get together this weekend.  Of course, the cop has top priority.  We have a lot of catching up to do, and finally, after a year of pining and dreaming, the cop and I are going out to buy his very first mountain bike!  I’m so excited for him!  Quite a bit of money for a toy, but for my sweetheart, it’s money well spent!

We have lots of projects due once the break is over.  I intend to milk the break for all it’s worth and put my family members to good use.  They’ll get the full workup: eye exam, percussions, palpations, auscultations, ear exam, and a full medical history.  At this point, I need all the practice I can get.
