It's midterms week here at SLU. That means a whole lot of craziness!! I was extremely stressed out this weekend and early in the week because I thought I was going to have 4 tests in two days while trying not to lose all focus by thinking constantly about my sister's wedding this weekend! Then on Tuesday I went into office hours for my physiology exam. I freaked out a little because I realized how much I still didn't know, but thankfully I have the greatest professor ever! The exam is on Friday, but I'm going home Thursday night so I had to schedule a time to make up the exam. After the office hours and my freak out the professor asked me how I did on the first exam. After telling him he informed me he would not allow me to take this exam before fall break. So I have Monday and Tuesday to devote to studying so I can get a better grade on this exam! Thank goodness for generous teachers! Then a little later I found out that my nursing exam is actually in a couple weeks, not Thursday like I thought!! That means I was down to two exams this week! I finished them today and think I did decent on them! I did not do as well on microbiology as I wanted to, but there's still two more tests to make up for it!
So today has been spent not stressing and just trying to be patient while waiting to go home tomorrow night!! I feel so much more relaxed knowing I have more time to study for physiology and I don't have to pull an all nighter tonight for it. I'm pretty sure I'd fail any test after today anyway because I just can't even focus knowing my sister's wedding is so close!!!! I'm so freaking excited for it!!
To add to the stress of midterms week, my friends studying in Madrid next semester wanted to buy plane tickets. I bought my round trip ticket to Madrid for next semester!!! There's no turning back now, I am officially spending my sophomore spring semester in Madrid!!!! It hasn't quite sunk in yet that this is actually happening. I never in a million years would have thought I'd be spending 4 months on my own studying in a whole different country that doesn't speak English. Along with the stress of figuring out the flights (THANKS DAD FOR YOUR HELP!!!!!) I also have been participating in a game called Humans vs Zombies. It's a totally nerdy game where zombies have to tag a human to turn them into a zombie. The human can throw a sock ball or shoot a nerf gun at a zombie to paralyze it so they can run away. So I've been paranoid every time I walk through the main part of campus afraid I'm going to get tagged by a zombie. I finally got tagged tonight:( Now I'm a zombie, so I'm supposed to "feed" on a human in the next 24 hours (tag a human). It would be more exciting, but I live on the med campus all day, and no one over there is cool enough to play apparently...
Anyway I'm just glad all my stress is gone for now, and I can just peacefully sleep and look forward to my train ride home tomorrow night!! Then I get to see my friends that I haven't seen since early August and hang out with them!! Then it will be wedding time!!!! Can't wait for my amazing sister to marry her awesome fiance!!! May God bless their marriage!
