Today in the life of Angie

Nothing really profound to write about today. Just gonna talk about my day. I got up showered, dressed, ate and ran out the door to catch the bus. Got to school and everyone was cramming for the massage midterm that we had this morning, but not me. For some reason, I figured I already knew it all, so I barely cracked my books this weekend (what a great weekend it was :) ) and wasn't going to be dragged into some last minute cramming. So I just sat and day-dreamed until the teacher came and we had to write the exam. So I wrote it, and I was pretty much right, there wasn't too much on there that I didn't know. I was able to recall pretty well from the week before when I had studied for the practical portion of this midterm (which I got 88% on by the way :D).

So I am always the first or second person to be done writing exams, I am not one to dilly daddle around, I either know it or I don't. And if I don't know it, I either make an educated guess, or just a complete shot in the dark. And every once in a while I will just throw something out there to make the instructor laugh. Like one time, in my 2nd term, there was this diagram of the brain on the exam, and for the life of me I couldn't rememeber what that part was called, so I labelled it as a type of cell that is found in the testicles (my friend said that it was a cancerous tumor cause she couldn't remember either). And my instructor at the time, she was a little 'out there' if you know what I mean, and she gave us a lecture about how she was quite frightened because she NEVER taught us anything about brain tumors. Yeah, guess those jokes were lost on her :P

Then this afternoon in class we talked about spinal cord injury. Now, I feel that I am a bit of an expert on the subject now (hehe), and found what the instructor was saying was kind of boring and too generalized. So I threw a few comments out there that most people found interesting. And this one girl asked a question that our instructor could not answer to her satisfaction, so I explained it differently, using a story that Jay had told me, and she totally got it :) My instructor was like, wow, never thought of it like that before! It was cool to feel smart for once ;)

Then I came home, and started working on my nutrition assignment, which I have been putting off for a few weeks now. I got a good page typed, and only 3 more to go. But I should get lots of work done this week, not because I will be thinking of Jay any less, but our 2hr phone calls will have to be curbed while his mom is in town ;) It's all good though!

Then I had supper, did a little more homework, then realized that I had forgotten to do an assignment that is due tomorrow. I was supposed to call a health care practitioner to ask them a few questions, and being that it is due tomorrow morning, and I didn't think of this until about 7pm, I had to do some quick BS-ing...hehe

Then I had my 2hr dose of Jay...mmmm *sigh* good stuff, and here I sit, still grinning from ear to ear, and thinking about going to bed. Thank you for reading about my day, maybe it was boring, but I just didn't have anything profound to throw out there today. Maybe tomorrow will be more inspirational ;)
