What do you think?

So apparently, the only explanation if I'm in a particularly good mood is if I've met with my good friend, ethanol. Great! Tis not true, and I plan on proving that wrong, I'm going dry, for however long it takes to convince y'all.

I made it through my first series of midterms alive and passing. Did well in some, did enough in others (biochem) and looking to whoop up on the practical today where I get to carve a tooth and show them how it's done (hopefully). However, I have realized my approach has been wrong. My original approach was to work really hard in the lab to make sure I have the necessary hand/eye skills and then do enough in the science classes to just pass (because C's gets degrees). But after having made it through the first set of grueling midterms, I've realized that I can do better and I should do better. I should be excelling in all aspects although in the end, what's important is that I know the material and have the necessary skills to treat patients well. So, now I will work hard in all aspects and strive for that A as long as it doesn't hinder my playtime too much. I've always considered myself an optimist but since starting school I think I may have tried to repress that a bit, but I'm glad to say...it's back!!!

I might be homesick...
