Why am I still awake?

Well I don't have any pictures of anything that we have been doing so I thought I would post a pic. of my cute roommate because this is what I get to see when I am home cause all we do is study.. We love having eachother to study with. It has been so nice and such a help. Caitlin really helps me to understand and see things in a simple way.

I don't have a test tomorrow, I don't have to be reading about the structures of the teeth or how to prevent oral disease, I don't have a stressful clinical tomorrow, so why the heck am I still wide awake? I don't know. I wanted to come home today after being at school for 14 hours and not do anything. I wanted to watch a movie and not study or read or have to think at all. I didn't get to my movie, but I did get to talk to my wonderful sister for about two hours on the phone and then I have just been blogging forever. I am feeling guilty that I am not spending my time while I am awake studying or doing something productive.

Why am I not tired? Maybe because I am use to going to bed every night at 1 or 2 in the morning and waking up between 5:30 or 6, or maybe it's because I woke up this morning with a headache and took 2 Excedrine tension headache and then drank a Dr. Pepper during lunch? Caffiene overload. I would think it would have worn off by now. I don't know. Whatever it is I wish I was tired so I could go to sleep. Good thing I don't have school tomorrow and Have the whole weekend to get a whole lot of stuff done.

This week went by so fast but was so extremely long. I did have a good week this week but it was a tough one. I had a test in every class and PASSED all of them!!! YAY!!! Passing is getting an 80% or better. They say this program is a roller coaster and you have your ups and downs and boy is it the truth. I have been on a wild roller coaster that is jerking me back and forth and is not a smooth ride. I would have to say I am on an old wooden roller coaster that gives you a headache when you are done. But you always seem to go back on that ride when you are feeling better. I guess the ups out weigh the downs.

I am enjoying my program and i love all the girls that I have gotten to know. We all are here to help eachother and support eachother one hundred percent. We are the only ones that know what we are going through so we are the only ones that can really understand eachother. I do love the head instructor for our group. She just makes me smile whenever I see her and she does want the best for all of us. She is a tough grader and pushes us, but she makes you feel good at the same time. Its funny because she lived in Fallon for 17 years and practiced Dental Hygiene up there. Her name is Missy Abel. We got to talking about Fallon and it ended up that she knew Cody's high school girlfriend's family. What a small world. I do love my classes except for my microbiology only because I can't understand my Asian teacher's English. I pretty much just listen to the words that she is miss pronouncing and try to figure out what she is really saying.

All in all everything is working out. I just have to take one day at a time and I can't believe that three weeks has already passed. I am so glad that I have Caitlin here 24/7. It is so nice to have a built in study partner, supporter, encourager, and best friend. WE are a great team and we are doing well because of it. Well I think that should be it for now and I should try to go to sleep. Good night to all.
