Yay!

Just got my grades back for my VBS exams last week, and they're much better than I was expecting. Somehow I managed to bring my averages up with neuro. I was kind of expecting it to screw me over, but I'll gladly take the opposite.

We've got an eye case this week. In anatomy, there was a bit of a "no you do it" with my group over who had to open up the eyeball. I think even though we had all read about the anatomy of the eye the night before, we were all kind of squeamish about it, and nobody wanted to accidentially pop it (and no, it didn't pop). I thought it was funny just how many of us are squicked out by touching eyes. Even worse, opthalmic pathology is freaking gross. I've been reading through the eye chapter in my path book, and every time I get to a picture, I just think "ewww." I think when it comes to eye stuff, I start to empathize too much, and start picturing that happening to me. I can't even watch the episode of the Simpson's where Homer sunburns his eyes without getting naseaus.

And I don't know how many people reading my blog are potential students, but I know they hear whether or not they got in within the next week. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you guys, and I know just how stressful it is waiting to hear what will be happening with the next four years of your life. Anyway, just a few more days, until that exciting letter is in your hands! I know I get stressed out by school quite a bit, but at the same time, I still adore it. I'm looking forward to getting a "little sib." Good Luck!
