I have officially applied for like 12 scholarships. It is such hard work. They all want different essays. Some 2 pages. some 300 words. some history, some future goals. I've been doing for the past 4 hrs! I sure hope it pays off. The motivation------ Nina and possibly some friends from Hindi group are going to India and other places in December. Oh yeah you know what I am thinking.....If I could pull this one off!!! I'm done school December 9th right when the tickets start to go down..supposedly. Oh i hope this works!
This nice lady in my class who sits behind me kindly told me that she was going to tell our teacher on me if I didn't stop being so distracting. Me distracting? I sit quietly in my bubble typing essays? But apparently "move around a lot." hmmm yes it was interesting. (I think someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed, wishing they were eligible for seventeen magazine-are you pretty awesome scholarship.)

ra ra riot
I always thought their songs were kinda mediocre. But they are so good live and the cello and violin are beautiful and they are super happy on stage and I am amazed how the cello girl stands and dances around! And the violinist jumps around to and still sounds great!

LET THE COUNTDOWN BEGIN
Nursing school is so crazy!!!!!!! I wish I could blog about my patients at the nursing home, but I signed this HIPPA thing. But I will say, the one thing I love about the nursing home is trying to talk to the spanish old ladies who don't speak any English! All and all it is pretty exhausting. The teachers are always trying to scare me! But I keep telling myself what soph told me, that it's really not that big a deal. Thursday is supposed to be my service day but yesterday "accidently" forgot to set my alarm and woke up the next day at 2:30! Sleepying in felt amazing... But not so great for the service time or bible studies...
We get to start giving meds next week. YES! no more bed baths! These patients sure do get medicated a lot! It is crazy how drugs are the go to solution! So different from my family of herb takers! Unfortunately its influencing me, I took more than 2 advil last month, but with moms great training felt so guilty, like I was killing my liver! (so i drank 3 cups of detox tea)!! I had a super annoying cold a couple of weeks ago and my mom walked in the kitchen right as a I was swallowing cold medicine and I thought she was going to cry- all she could talk about was how I was ruining the green beans I just ate. I felt pretty guilty. But cold medicine works way faster than green beans.
Saturday clinicals tomorrow! YIPPEE
rough calculation 9 months and 10 days till graduation!!!!! for life.....no more community college!!!!! I just don't see how some people can go to school for life, I am going stir crazy from all these boring lectures!

Sooo tired!!!! I got a sore throat and do not want to get sick! So mint tea and honey and toy story 3 here I come! We learned how to give enemas in class the other day... Yeah gross. I did not know what an enema was and all week prior to learning the teacher would say things like ok next monday demonstrate enemas... I had a feeling it was something gross by the way her tone of voice changed.....and yes it was.
We also learned how to check peoples glucose levels. Where you have to prick their fingers. It was sooo freaky, we weren't really going to prick each others fingers,, just pretend/demonstrate, but my lab partner is this tough, ex military, pregnant lady, and as she was massaging my finger to get the blood to come to the tip and then she pulled out the needle!!! AHHHHHH. I got so scared and dizzy and red in my face and i pulled my finger back! it was so weird!!

Listening to tokyo police club reminds me of latifah, which reminds me of our uhh "band" :D. Oh to just be naturally be musically talented, I wish! But I think we should have a come back! A new debut! A band practice, hmmm if only we had a latifah replacement!
Stupid school books they are so boring and thousands of pages long. We had a 3 hour math class today after the 3 hour lab, but we do get a 1 hour lunch break, which has turned into "let's watch mind melting bachelor" TV show on hulu! YAY It really would be the perfect time to open one of these thousand page book,s but my brain just hurts so bad and its better to learn awesome things like how to give a bed bath and fan fold(this week) hands on, not from a book...RIGHT?!. I found out there is actually 2 witnesses in my class!

lalala nature sounds at night and pandora radio in the AM!
So I am waiting for the service group to come meet me at my house.....and its pouring rain.
NURSING SCHOOL! Is everyday, except for holidays like today, thank you MLK, and only 11 more months to go. Let the count down begin! There is a witness in my class. woohoo. I learned how to wash my hands...very important. check your pulse and blood pressure. The teachers try to freak you out by saying if you are more than 2 counts off when couting pulse you will get kicked out of school. But sophie told me they lie and you won't get kicked out. So they don't scare me!!! HAHA Although I was like 40 off on our last practice, but this girl had an odd pulse. (coffee and no food and non bounding/jumping pulse)
Nina moved out!!! INDEPENDENT, throw your hands up in the air! Awww I would say I miss her but, we see each other a lot still. And it's better because I don't irritate her in the morning and she has an awesome place and she is so happy!. In Winter Park right next to gardens and a perfect workout parks! (haha I am going to slowly move in with her.............mwahahhah)

More about Panama
The meeting was so cute in Panama. They only have 13 publishers in the English Hall and one elder! There were a few need greaters there too. The person who read the watchtower actually knew my sister. He was asking me if I knew where Lake Helen was.. which happens to be the obscure town close to where my congregation is. He asked me if I had a sister who got married in Vegas....yeah your describing my family...weird.Apparently he sat next to Nina at a wedding in Minnesota, such a small world.
There is also a small nobay (I don't know if I spelt that right) group in Bocas. Which they do not even have a Bible in their language yet! and one ministerial servant takes care of the whole group! I heard they are having much growth!
Bocas was a neat place, although it is very touristy, there are still indigenous people walking around the streets in their native looking clothes.
