Confirmed: I'm A Dork

Last night I dreamed I made a 73 on my Anatomy & Physiology final. I was absolutely distraught. It was one of those horrible dreams - the kind you wake up from feeling all defeated and BAD. Let me just say, again, for the record: College is bad for your health, and not in a fun way.

Today, I turned in my scholarship application. If everyone will stop praying for world peace for just one second to send a little prayer up for me to get this scholarship, I would REALLY appreciate it. If I get this scholarship, I might be able to quit one of my jobs.
During CON orientation on Friday, one of the things that was stressed about our nursing program is that it is accelerated and content intensive. They basically said, "Good luck if you're going to try to work at a job and succeed in this program."

The other exciting thing that I did today was to get my lab coat. I think it's probably the coolest lab coat in the world, so I'm pretty excited about it. The store I'm getting it from gave all of us at orientation a $5 coupon - five bucks isn't all that much, but it did make a difference. My coat plus the school patch plus having the nice folks at the store sew the patch on was all less than $20 with the coupon! SCORE! That's a pretty smokin' deal, if you ask me.

Trauma Queen, you're my hero and I'm gonna follow this quest of yours to its triumphant end. Voyeurism is easy, anyway. But here you are, playing both Achilles and Helen -- and Homer ta-boot! And need I say there are few things in this world sexier than a lab coat. Or, maybe it's not the lab coat exactly...
