*whispers* McCain is visiting one of my schools tomorrow...

I think I will do the only sensible thing and rush home as soon as class if over. Luckily I should be out of class an hour and a half before people are being told to arrive. Everytime I see McCain on the TV the nurses aide in my deperately wants to shove a walker in the man's hand or get him to sit down in a nice comfy chair. I'll even go get him some water or lemonade just to make sure he doesn't get too dehydrated. I do not want to see if that urge would still translate if I saw him in a crowd from a distance. The only sensible thing is to go home and bury myself in school work.

Yesterday I basically panicked and hated myself. I'm over that now. Today I woke up and did something I haven't done in weeks. I carefully picked out what I was going to wear and put on my make-up. Lately I've been just grabbing a pair of jeans, a clean shirt and rushing out the door. Then I went to CSU to work on my poetry essay. Our teacher took the time to put a few books behind the refrence desk to help us so I at least wanted to look at one of them for my paper. I think I found some good quotes. The lady who helped me was all set to let me take the book home with me...I took it upstairs, copied what I thought would relate well to my poem and returned it. I did get some bio's on my poet though. I'm doing a Robert Frost poem, mostly because the Sunday before the teacher handed out what poems we could write on I had a few extra moments while waiting for a nurse and read some Frost to a resident (she had a book in her room). I'm getting an A in poetry...actually at midterms I was getting an A in all my classes except Anatomy.

When I got to my community college for my Stats class (Last summer I took the Math version of the class, this semester I'm taking the Pysch version) I went to the tutoring center and scheduled an session for next Wed and I may be able to pick up a session on Thurs if I'm still feeling shaky. I also talked to one of my classmates and she recommended downloading the podcasts and retaking my notes from that instead of just recopying my notes. I'm going to try that after class. I'm also going to make some flashcards and stick them in my pocket to go over during any downtime at work. I foresee lots of studying in my future.
