Academy of Sciences visit

Baba took the boys and me to the Academy of Sciences to enjoy Claude the albino alligator and the planetarium. Joe met up with us which made it extra special.

Final Stretch

My last final is Monday. I have pulled off two great test scores (90 and 83) to put myself at a 78% average. So, I have a little breathing room for the final but still need to do well. My mom has been here over a week now and she has been a godsend. I am having so much fun with her, when I am not studying. I am so glad she is here. We will all fly to Marin on the 16th so that is a very tantalizing carrot at the end of this grueling journey. I can't wait to see my dad, Joe and Fred and all my friends! We haven't booked a flight back to Idaho yet but we will be there through Christmas.
Yesterday, I got to volunteer to greet the incoming class of nursing students. What a trip! In the audience I saw my lab partner in A&P, my first semester back in college, who was so patient with me while I learned how to be a student again. I like being involved with the RN program and it probably earns me a few kudos with my professors. I had my last clinical on Thursday and so I finally put my nose pierce back in as I haven't been allowed to wear it all semester, one of the many small sacrifices for nursing school. :)
It has been an amazing journey and I trust I will pass my course and progress on to the second semester. Being so close to not passing is just going to make it all the sweeter. :)
