Goodbye Year 1

Only a month until I officially become a second year, then the trouble all begins again! To be honest I think it's a miracle I've made it this far without having a mental breakdown.
  The exam wasn't to bad yesterday the A&P questions went my way but the maths section I'm sure I've failed but that's something that I can work on a bit more and work harder at. Now it's SO hot in Norwich I don't know what to do with myself I think Norwich weather had Bipolar because it rained for 2 weeks straight now it's about 27 degrees. Still it's a nice way to end the year my room currently looks like it's been hit by a bomb ready for moving back :( I'm sad because I liked this place although it was hugely overpriced and the kitchen was always messy it was still a really nice place to spend my first year away from home !
 For the next 6 weeks I refuse to talk or even think about midwifery, which is much easier said than done. Plus when I'm not doing something midwifery related I'm bored out of my skull because there's nothing to do. I definitely couldn't be unemployed with nothing to do all day I think I'd kill myself!
 I also managed to work out the reason behind the amount I've been able to save... Midwifery = No life and no time meaning that I never had the time to go shopping. Now however I have the whole day hahahah and I got my bursary on Friday so I'm feeling a little spending spree coming on! :)

Hello Norwich shopping !!!

Exam dreams

Woke up this morning in a daze, I'm not sure whether it was the alcohol or just the sheer concentration that has been put into the last few weeks but I had a very odd dream last night that caused me to wake up in a bit of a sweat.

Picture this if you will...

Sitting in an exam room having prepared for 3 weeks solid on midwifery, I open the booklet and read the first and only question worth 50 marks.

The question " A child is in need of it's 5 year vaccination, which vaccinations are recommended and how would they be given?"

Honestly I've never felt so sick in all my life!

Waking up in a hot sweat I was very pleased to see the four walls on my room...

This my friends is what I call a small breakdown. I really would just like the exam tomorrow and to go home and cuddle my ginger puss.

To add to my stress I had arranged my year 1 final interview today. I arrived on time and waited to get started as I wondered over another student barged in having been 30 minutes late for her appointment. I explained to her the rules of you snooze you lose but in a much more polite way and was sure it was her tough luck that she would have to come back in her own time. However, when the lecturer made her way out she ordered me away because apparently the other student was first. Now that may be so. BUT. She had missed her whole appointment and it was now my slot. Apparently though this was my fault and I would need to come back again on Monday when I should really be revising so I can sit for an hour and listen to her drivel.

Wonderful! As you can imagine that was the cherry on top of the cake and I just walked off feeling as if I'd done something wrong.

I'm pretty good at revision

Turns out I'm pretty good at self motivating. I think the fact that the exams are not far off are probably the reason why I'm doing so well. I quite like this DIY attitude, whether I'm actually learning the right things though is anybodies guess. Otherwise, everything else is well and I'm a bit boring really =_=
Placement finished and I don't think i've ever been quite so happy so at least thats a possitive :)
