I'm Going To Vomit...

Literally, I really think I'm going to vomit!

I sit here, at 12 AM

Unable to sleep

I took my clinical boards at 7:30 this morning

I have been sick ever since!

Everything went ok I guess I could say

She was on time, qualified the first time

I got to work and scaled my little heart out

But those two hours FLEW by

All the sudden I had 10 minutes left

I wanted 10 hours!

There were a few rough spots I could feel

Worked and Worked and WORKED FOREVER on them

nothing was coming off

I pray it was just tooth anatomy and they don't count it against me

During probing there was a heavy bleeder

I couldn't see my probe

So I thought...I'll come back to it

Well of course I forgot

So I left one probe depth blank

There goes 1.25 points

UGH! JENNY! IDIOT!!

I was really nervous

Even though I have done this a million times

THIS was the time that counted the SUPER most!

After, all I could think of was... did I do this?

Did I do that?

Maybe I should have done this...

Maybe I should have done that...

I think of all the spots of roughness I felt

What if they mark me down for 20 calculus errors?

I CAN'T TAKE THIS ANYMORE!

And it has not even been 24 hours since I took this exam!

They are making us wait 2-4 weeks for our results!

Back to my title...

I'm going to vomit!

Pray for me

It Was A Good Day!

It was a good day yesterday...

Because I received this in the mail...

SO thankful I don't EVER have to take that again!!

It was pretty brutal!!

LA Mock Board!!

Thursday was LA mock board...

I was scared...

I almost died on the drive in

Crazy freak hail storm

People sliding off the road everywhere

One guy missed slamming me by approximately a millimeter!

So needless to say, the morning didn't start off very well!

Then they were rushing me,

I will still shaking from the drive...

But they came over and I went for it...

I decided to do the left IA first, uncapped my needle, and drug it across the plastic on the tray...

Lovely way to start

Had to announce that I contaminated my needle...

UGH

So recapped, and went on with the right PSA first

(My absolute WORST injection, I can never get the angle!!)

So uncapped, went for the distal buccal root, surprisingly I wasn't shaking...

Got in, did my thing, got out, recapped.

Done, ok, next...

Did the IA, hit bone, redirected, got to deposition site, bam bam bam...

Out and recap.

WOW, I'm done. That was kinda scary.

Honestly I had no clue how I did...

I felt pretty good giving them, 

But they are so picky about everything I didn't know if I passed or failed...

WELL I PASSED!! BOTH INJECTIONS!!! YAY!!!

They even said my PSA was textbook perfect!!

(That has never happened before)

Perry said my IA was a little high, which is why I hit bone, 

But I handled it perfectly, so I passed!

Made me feel a little bit better about taking this in 2 weeks!!

On to the written,

YIKES (I haven't studied yet...)

Most of them I felt pretty good about, but there were a few I had no clue!!

I ended up with an 82%

I can handle that!!

Overall, it was stressful, but I feel much better knowing now how it will run...

I CAN DO THIS!!!

(HOPEFULLY)

I'll let ya know in two weeks!!!

V~A~

Well if I have to go to the VA

I at least want it to be a useful, productive day!

I hate driving all the way down there to see a 1B and a 5!

Clearly I could do that at Weber!!

But today was a productive day that made the drive seem worth it!

I was able to see 5 quads of a Class 4

Do 8 Injections

& do my nitrous PE!!

HALLELUJAH!!!

One Step Closer...
