Stick a Fork In Me

I'M DONE!!! At least until Monday! I survived through the worst class in history! Just some advice, never take A&P II in 2 weeks, unless you have a professor willing to cut out the unecessary and focus on, clueing you in also, what is required. We had the teacher who wanted us to learn EVERYTHING! I'm not kidding, 5 chapters, no focus on what will be on the test, actually that was the one question we could not ask him. KNOW EVERYTHING! Then you get to the test, and the questions are about the finite details of certain things, out of 5 chapters in 4 days. These chapters consist of 50 pages each, the book is MASSIVE, and when he asks questions he refers to them as "TRICKY not trick questions" because the answers consisted of 2 wrong and 2 right, but you had to chose the most right answer! UMMMM??? And when you only have no time to study, you can't get that in depth, impossible. The 1st test was 200 questions and the 5 chapters. NUTS! Then we had lab on top of that. It was just craziness! But amazingly someone actually made a 100 in the class!! He was going to adjust the grading scale at the end to accomidate the bell curve, but 3 of the smartest people managed to screw that up. So everyone else got screwed! NO REALLY, there were 4 B's 3 A's, 12 C's and 2 D's. NUTS NUTS NUTS! So depressing. I got a B. Now getting into nursing school is going to be one of the hardest things ever! STUPID SU! They start your GPA over, so when I make 2 B's, I do not have the cushion of the 60 previous credits. NOT COOL! And apparently our class is the last that had Pre-admit's from Highschool's around. If you came straight to SU and declared nursing, then you were pre-admitted. So now there are only 60 or less slots. Ya, not cool! Monday I embark on the next set of insanity. And I have the same teacher for my Pathophysiology class that I had this Winter class for. He's a nice person, really nice, but is the worst teacher I've ever encountered in all 6 of my previous Colleges! THAT'S SAYING SOMETHING!
The kiddo's are doing AWESOME! Kalan finally figured out that normal crawling is much easier than his scooting and does that now. He's been pulling up and cruisin a little bit. He gives kisses when your lucky! He has to be in the mood. Kaiden never gave kisses, so I am eating it up. And he doesn't just give kisses to anyone, usually just me and here lately Kaiden.
DENNIS GOT A CALL BACK FOR FRUITLAND PD! WOO! He goes to take the written test on Feb.2nd. We're pretty excited! And we found out that he can draw his GI Bill for the 6 or so months that he will be in the academy, plus not have to pay for the classes and stuff. GOOD STUFF! Besides that, not anything else going on. Just cruisin on my way to NURSING SCHOOL!!
