I took a midterm exam yesterday in Anatomy and Physiology. My teacher is amazing, but this is still just so much to learn! Her exams are fair but tough. You have to know your stuff, which is fine. When you do well you know you've accomplished something great. So...I wait for the grade. But it takes so much out of me mentally and physically to do this. I came home at 5 PM and crashed. Slept for two hours...up for two...back to bed from 9PM until 7 this morning. The body was really exhausted. So, it's out for a walk and some other mental exercise besides A&P! Forgot to say that I also was so engrossed in study for this one exam that I forgot I had a Psych test to take yesterday also. Fortunate for me - with twenty-five years as an HR professional in my "former life", a test in social psychology is pretty easy to pass...with or without study. Oh the joys of having experience to fall back on! There are benefits to being older, huh!
So, just three weeks left in the term (and they will be grueling, given the material we have to learn) I am looking so very forward to a summer break. While I still have to work, 35 hours of work commitment seems like a piece of cake compared to this last 9 months. I'm hoping to carve out a week or ten day break to head out West. I miss those Rocky Mountains and my friends. But for now....back to the books!
I'm ever so grateful for my study partners, friends and family who read my blog and my Facebook site, and who are there to help me stay motivated and keep my chin up when it gets rough. We all need our social support network. I love you all!
Cheers!
