yea, I'm still in Austin even though my only class for the day is currently going on in Dallas at this very moment. I'm such the rebel. Honestly, I didn't want to drive back at the butt crack of dawn to talk about "my plans for the future". Honestly, I don't even know what they are anyway. Pretty stupid class if you ask me and not worth the early morning drive. I'm trying to be productive here: I've been reading articles for my five page paper I have been procrastinating writting. Honestly, I am not even sure what I need to include in the assignment. Can't find any guidelines anywhere- I'm going to bank on my profs high level of slackerbility in that she won't really read it anyway nor will she care if it's not exactly what she had in mind. Right now I have a word document open and all it has is the title "balance recovery strategies in the older patient". God, I'm on a role.
I really really do not want to go back to Dallas! Granted I will only be there tonight- Thursday afternoon but this week is truely a suckfest filled with TWO presentations. The one tomorrow is pretty lame. It's just about an interview we had with a PT in a particular setting. Basically regergatating what they told us. But then I have to do a mock presenation over my pro-project tomorrow for my profs and Chad. Ugh. And Thursday is the big day. I hate presentations. HATE THEM. And then at the end all the people ask you questions. Oh and this presentation is in front of the entire faculty, all the PT students (grad Is and IIs) and anyone else that wants to come from the community. So vomit. I'm still mad that our group got split up and I was chosen to do the platform. I HATE PUBLIC SPEAKING. I don't know if I've stressed that point enough. LAME.
Wed is my last day at my selective. I'm happy about this as I am sick of driving to Arlington and of my CI. There is something annoying about her- something inherent of a volunteer clown? I'm not sure. Also the fact that she never takes what I say seriously even when I'm right and she's wrong- highly annoying. In any case I'm baking them some cake/brownie bars to be nice. And hope she will be a ref for me when I apply for jobs. We'll see.
I haven't really been studying for the licensure and that practice test is a week from Thursday. (I need a 70% to grad my program) I need to study even though I made a 70.5 the first time I need it again this time and it was right on the border so it could go either way.
I also need to find a doc in Austin. Humana SUCKS.All the docs are not accepting new patients that are in that PPO. So I'm basically SOL except for this one guy who is only in on Thursdays.. I work 10-7 then but he doesnt perscribe meds the first time you see him and I'll run out by then. So yea, more anxiety for someone already taking anxiety meds. You really shouldn't mess with the mentally unstable.
Yea, so the above are my current worries at the moment. There are others of course like: finding a job, beginning to apply for the licensure exam etc. I really want a vacation or a trip to the spa. Yes, either of those would be nice!!
Ok I really need to begin my paper- at least the background information. Yes, yes that will be my goal for the day!!!
