Breathing a bit easier, but bed for now.

Grades are finally posted for the test that I was convinced I got an F on. I got a D. I have a 72.7 in the class...so I need to bring it up 5 percentage points. I'm feeling confident about this. I'm going to stop being silly about my study habits and go back to the PQ4R method even though it's time consuming. I learned it last year and it totally works for me. So two good test grades and a good final and I'll be okay. I was seriously stressed about this grade, but now I'm breathing a little better because even though I know I screwed up, I also know I can fix it. Was probably annoying how much I was praying for a fixable outcome today. I need to not do this to myself again. I need to stick with the study method I know works for me and not try to do something less time consuming.

Also psych rotation in 15 days! I am so counting down.

Going to see Alice in Wonderland tomorrow wiht my friend James. Can't wait!

Also something interesting happened today. I told the nurse something in regards to a client and my coworker/friend tried to get me to change the way I had said it, saying that I sounded funny and that I needed to sound more normal. I've been told I talk funny before. In the sixth grade when this happened I began to dumb down my speech so that my classmates could understand me. When my co-worker said something today I told her that I'm an English major. She said that didn't mean everyone was. I said that the nurse had understood what I had told her and that dumbing it down would be disrespecting her intelligence. I also acknowledged that I know I 'talk funny' but that's who I am and I like it.
