Managed a 4.0 for the term! I should hang my report card up on the fridge! The only grade that was border line was my Clinmed class with a 93 (92 is a B... which is rough because if you miss one question on a ten question quiz you get a B o_O) and so I knew if I could pull off an A on the final I would be ok, and I got a 95! (it might have even been a 96 or 97 I don't remember for sure.)
This term's Clinmed is easier, or at least more interesting. We are learning about breeds. we have a cat breed identification test on Monday. I think i'll be ok on most of the breeds but the Burmese and the Tonkinese are going to give me some trouble o_O. I also need to watch my spelling because it counts. She said she was pretty lenient with the dog breeds because everyone was making mistakes, but she won't be so forgiving of the cat breeds. I hope I didn't make too many mistakes on spelling on the dog breeds because I filled up pages upon pages of notebook paper practicing them. The pathetic part is I had to learn how to spell retriever. :p (I kept spelling it retriver)
The stomach aches have still been plaguing me even though I haven't been stressed. So I'm starting to think it is a medical problem after all, and not just a psychological one. I was telling a friend at school about it and she said I was probably gluten intolerant, something I've suspected for a long time. I told her that i had been tested and it had come back negative, but that I knew the test wasn't very accurate. She managed to talk me into just trying a gluten free diet (it didn't take much talking, really, as I've been debating for some time.) It's been about 3 days and I haven't been having stomach aches, but I know it's really to early for the diet to be helping so it's probably a coincidence. I've also been cheating, something i'll have to knock off if i want it to really work. Yesterday we had Quiznos for dinner, and I ordered a salad... it was pretty disappointing, it was just plain iceberg lettuce, with their rather disappointing chicken (you can get away with disappointing chicken when its slathered with tasty sauces, but not so much on a salad.) so I eat the flat bread that came with it in consolation, unlike the salad it was really good. I don't know, If we order for quiznos again, I think I'll either just make myself something or order a sandwich and just not eat the bun... of course then i'd have no choice but to look at the chicken... it doesn't look very appetizing... So much for quality ingredients.
Hopefully we'll go to the grocery store later and get me some gluten free stuff.
