Last Week

This is my last week on campus before christmas. I am happy that i wont have to drive so much and i will be able to sleep in. I am nervious for the big test that i have this week but i think i will do ok. I am exited for christmas break.I cant wait for All the wonderful food and time with my family. I havent done much christmas shopping yet. I dont know what to get people. I dont have very many people to get for but its still hard to decide what to get. My brother is over seas and i have a gift for him. I am exited about it. I think he will enjoy it. I have to send it out soon so he can get it close to christmas.
I am exited for next semester. I get to start up my nursing classes again. I transfered here so i was advanced placement and didnt have to take the nursing assessment class. I feel out of the loop because i am not really in any classes with fellow nursing students this semester. But next semester i will have alot of my classes with them. I will also have lab and clinicals. I cant wait.

Finals Next week!

This next coming week is finals. I am a little worried. I have done well in all of my classes exept for genetics. I am passing the class but every test i stess out. The final is going to over the whole semester. I am worried because the teacher is a rough grader. She like lots of detail but not too much. If you dont have enough or you have too much she will take points off. I feel like i lucked out this year in the finals because i only have 1 final a day and on tuesday i have the whole day off. I am confident in my other classes, its just the one class that stesses me out.
I have tried many ways to study for genetics and still cant figure out the best way. I have also tried different ways to try and not be stressed out but i still freak out. I like to hang out with friends to relax and watch movies but when i do that to try and help i feel like i am slacking and should be studying or else i will fail.

Stressed to the MAX!

Today i have a big test in genetics. I hope i do well. I am kinda stressing out because of it. I havent done well on the other genetics test. I hear this test isnt that hard that it just takes along time.I also have to read a couple of pages for my history class. During Thanksgiving Break i have to write a report about a fly project my partner and i had to do this semester in genetics. I is a semi- research paper, and we just got done writing a research paper for genetics. Sometimes i feel as if some of my teachers think this is the only class their students are taking.
Next week is thanksgiving break and i am not sure what i am going to do for thanksgiving. Alot of my family is busy so we arent going to have it with my dad’s side of the family. My mom’s side has decided to have an evening dinner. I have been thinking about going to see my boyfriends family with him, but i am not sure because my sister in law is coming and i dont want to leave her at my house by herself. I dont know what to do!

On the Run

So far this week i havent been that busy. After i turned in all those papers my week has slowed down. The one main thing i have this week that is really important is a genetics test. I hope that i do well on it. The test is going to be over pedigrees. We have to identify them and say what types of pedigrees she made and what types of diseases are that type of disease. Also we have to make a pedigree based on what she has given us.
I am disappointed a little. My cousin wanted me to go with her to see the midnight showing of NEW MOON… but i have my genetics test on friday afternoon. I really wanted to go see it, but i have to pass this test because genetics is kicking my butt. I may not get to go see it at midnight but i am plaining to go see it on saturday afternoon. I am hoping that the theater wont be so full in the afternoon.

Busy Weekend

This past weekend I was maxed out. I have a 15-20 page paper due today for my genetics class. I had most of it done but in needed to make little changes and touch it up. I also had a religion take home test i had to do. My teacher gave us 3 questions and wanted them to be 2 pages each. My answers werent 2 pages. I also have a history 2- 3 page paper due today too. I had to read a chapter from a certain book and use it as a source to aswer the a question on the roles of women in the 1600s. I cant slow down i have a genetics test on friday that i need to start studying for. I also have a lab. in genetics that takes a good hour every other day. We are doing a fly breeding project and i have to count how many different flies we have. I hope that after this week it will slow down some!

Slowing Down

This last week has slowed down some. I havent had as many test or homework to do. I have been relaxing some and working on some homework i have due in the future. I know that coming up i am going to be busy again beause i will have more test and homework. I am still driving back and froth to school but it is easier when i dont have a big test that day. I was feeling pushed to the limit on driving last thursday because i had an orientation at the hospital and than had to drive to school. I was pushing my time limit because i only had a half hour to get from one place to the next. but the rest of the week went slower and i enjoyed it.

Fall Break

This past weekend was fall break. I didnt do a whole lot. I just tried to catch up on some relax time and some studying i needed to do. I watched some movies. I now have 2 favorite movies. The Proposal and Ghost of Girlfriends past. I also read a couple of books that i needed for my genetics class term paper. I have a 20 page paper on 4 topics to write in the next 2 weeks. So i thought i better get started on it. Over all i had a good break Just relaxing and doing litte work.
