Finito!

I have so much to catch you up on that I might have to just split it up into two separate posts. I survived finals, had a great birthday, a not so great root canal and other fun doctors visits. And our life in NYC recently.

I can’t believe I can put this in writing… I’m done with classes! Finals went even better than I had hoped. I got a 100% on the 45 minute comprehensive practical exam; something I’m not sure has ever been done. I received A’s in my two final classes overall.

My class and I had hours and hours of finals over the course of a few days which, no matter how prepared you are, are exhausting. By the time they were all over we were a little delirious but definitely had reason to celebrate so my class and I did just that the afternoon we finished. Shout out to Jamara who found a pub that would let use their grill and backyard for a bbq AND for providing all the food for our celebration. We couldn’t get too wild at our bbq because that night was my old class’s graduation/ pinning ceremony.

Most of us somehow made it home to get dressed up and back to school in time. Although it was hard to see my previous (and favorite) class get pinned and know I should be in that group, it was a really nice reception and sendoff. The speeches and video presentation the class made was so entertaining. At that point they were officially done and had nothing to lose, allowing them to make some jokes at the faculty’s expense… tastefully of course. ;)
