Yes!!! Praise God!!!

I have finally completed 5 major and 5 minor scrub requirements for graduation. I'm too high right now... from excitement, that is. lol!
I'm going to get myself cleared tomorrow.

Lambda Batch 2006 is finally marching on the 26th. weehaa!

And we're getting pinned on the 24th too. I can finally sleep in peace. I've been bunking in the operating room the past few yet looong days. It feels weird even to be finally sleeping at home tonight... aaand it feels good to actually brush my teeth at our sink at home. lol.

Off to bed...

Nighty-night everyone!

I Can't Wait to March to the Tune of "Pomp and Circumstance"

Wow. If this blog appears dead or laxed for the past few weeks.. yikes... everything going on "off-blog" is pure chaos. Not war-chaos... but pre-graduation chaotic. Hmmm... I have two case studies to "finish" this afternoon. MUST FINISH... this afternoon.

The lobby by the faculty room in school is jam-packed every single day. From dawn till dusk. You can actually smell AND identify the shampoo on the hair of the person in front of you. That's how tight the lobby is. So it's like you'd rather not take a bath in the morning, just so you could 'repel' everyone else, and get yourself a cute pathway for you to get to the secretary's glass window.

*Sigh*

I need to tend to my paper.

And savor the ability to wave my hands in the air like THIS, without hitting some guy's nose or some girl's balloons.

It's not over yet. It will be like this until that glorious day when we get to wear that coveted toga and toss our caps into the air. Wooohoooo!!! *Root Root*

Till then, it's the battleground for us. But I'm risking to take that shower though. LOL!

Oh what I would give to doze off like this little guy right here...
Oh man...

39 Pounds of Love




Excerpt from the official site:

39 Pounds of Love is the inspirational and humorous non-fiction account of a remarkable man and a remarkable journey.
Ami Ankilewitz was diagnosed with an extremely rare and often fatal form of SMA/2 that severely limits his physical growth and movement yet at 34 years of age, he continues to outlive a doctor's prediction of life expectancy by 28 years. And counting.

Ami, who weighs only 39 pounds, works in Israel as a 3D animator and creates his art despite the fact that his bodily motion is limited to a single finger on his left hand and in doing so, continues to redefine notions of a "limited" life.
The film follows Ami's journey in search of the doctor who predicted his early demise. Along his journey, Ami attempts to come to terms with another major incident from his past and to complete a lifelong dream: To finally ride a Harley Davidson.

39 Pounds of Love is an emotional roller coaster, a fascinating, humorous and truly inspirational ride through life with someone who embodies the very term, Carpe Diem (Seize the day).

Save as Draft

I had a good three-paragraph pre-published entry before this. But as soon as I typed in the very last word, the computer froze! Guess what that word was! ... "Bummer!" Ack!!! I'm itching to type that single word a hundred times over in this post. What can I say? "Save as Draft" is there for a reason... click it, love it, use it!!! @(*&#(*$&( ^%$!!!

*sigh*

Anyway, what I wanted to say yesterday was that I passed the revalida!!! weeeeehaaaaa!!! ;D I couldn't believe it either. Shucks.... *batting lashes* Praise the One above!

I developed a major headache the moment I stepped out of that freakin' test chamber. Talk about stress.

But it's far from over. We still have our pre-boards next week, and about thirty or so more days to complete our requirements for graduation. As of now... I will savor this day of doing nothing. It's weird though. Instead of spending the day in complete requiescence, every now and then I'm like, "Wasn't I scheduled for duty today? Wasn't I supposed to pass my paper this afternoon? Did Miss Clinical Instructor want to see me today?... blah blah blah..."
It's ridiculous. And just when you finally GET IT... that you are or HAVE been, in fact, FREE the whole day... it's bedtime, and classes resume tomorrow. Ack...

Never again! When they say today is a holiday... then it IS a holiday. Or is it really???

Huhuhuhuhuhuhu! My last post is gone forever!!!

And in tribute to it... allow me to say...

"BUMMER!!!"

A Therapeutic Regimen

LOL! i'm laughing so hard i look like i'm on acid. At review class we were practicing filling up the admission forms for the licensure examination. *sigh* If only we get to practice the actual test before taking it. Dude, I'm so up for that.

Everyone was like... serious... dead serious.

Clinical Teacher: Okay, so you're gonna need three 2x2 IDs, and one 1x1.

(beat)

Close-up. Not the whole body.

Of course she meant it as a joke. But as simple as it was, we were all cracking up the moment the words made its way into our cortex.

Awesome. If you feel like getting high. Forget meth, forget heroin, forget LSDs. If you have a few bucks to spare, go to a comedy bar. Rent a movie, hard-core comedy. If you're "pocket-lite"... find someone you can do knock-knock jokes with or beg someone to tickle your feet, be creative. Just laugh! It's the drug of choice. It's most of the time legal.

Government warning: Ad nauseum laughter may effectuate a black eye or an impoundment in a psych ward.

On three....

(when alone)BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA!!!!!!!

(at midnight)*CHUCKLE!!!!*

(in a public cafe)*open ms notepad.. type LOOOOOOLLLLL!!!!*

(in the library)*innocent cough*

*Best results when you hyperoxygenate yourself before and after the laughing spree.

Breathe in, breathe out. Fix your hair, massage facial muscles...

You're okay. ;D
