It's over... Praise the Lord

I don't know how the MCAT went to be honest. Parts of it went really well. Other parts... eh.. we'll see.

Now I can have a life! Until I start studying again that is. But I don't have to feel guilty for hanging out with people anymore! :)

Nothing really enlightening on my mind right now, but just thought I'd put some words out there to let everyone know (that reads this thing) that I'm still alive.

haha

This was a pretty funny picture I saw in an e-mail from my mom. Yes, that is a little puppy peeing on a computer.. haha, poor computer owner

Unfortunately, there really isn't much to update people on. I wake up, eat, read, study, do practice tests, shadow, sleep, and visit people who have had surgery. That's about it.

Yesterday, I did get to shadow Dr. Fyke (a cardiologist in Jackson, who actually took care of my grandmother a few years ago) and I was just amazed by his way of dealing with patients. He was so sensitive and caring despite the circumstances (as a cardiologist, he deals with a lot of people that aren't doing well). I had a good time with him, and he said I could come back anytime!

If you think about it, please pray for me as I prepare for the MCAT on May 31. It is coming ever so quickly and I still have a decent amount of ground to cover, although I've had the chance to cover a lot of ground in the past couple weeks.

Hope y'all will still be friends with me when all this is over :)

oh the fun...

This summer....
could be the best/worst summer of my life. I'm hoping for the former. I'm gonna do my best to make it that.

I thought moving home would make me completely incapacitated in terms of getting things done, but fortunately it hasn't done that completely. It does make it harder to roll out of bed early though, because I don't have class.

Something funny I came across...















So here's the story on these photos. This tiger had triplet cubs and because of their low birthweight, they died. The mother got depressed because her cubs died and she started to decline in health, so the zookeepers started looking for other cubs around the country that could be adopted by this mother tiger. To their chagrin, they didn't find any, so they decided to dress up some pigs and let the mom 'adopt' them, and the pictures tell the rest of the story :)

Anyways. Going to Lagniappe for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday and I feel like it is my vacation for the rest of the summer. Wow, I really can't wait for it - there is something refreshing about working with your hands and seeing people that you love in a place that you've grown attached to.

Well, that's it for my first real post, hope you're doing well!
