I've been stressed to the point of tears pretty much all day.
I got my first test back with a grade lower than 100. This was because I reversed the origin and insertion for Quadratus Lumborum. When we took the ungraded quiz during the review with a substitute teacher yesterday, I had reversed them as well, and made a note to study it for the test. However, the substitute teacher boy who lead the review told us that they were really just 'attachment sites', so the 'origin' and 'insertion' of this particular muscle actually could be reversed. Thus, I sighed in relief because I knew that it attached at the 12th rib and the iliac crest, and I didn't have to stress about it anymore.
Until this morning when we took the test (which should have been this afternoon, but that's a whole different rant), and I had 4 points taken off for reversing the origin and insertions for Quadratus Lumborum. When I told her what the boy had said, she assured me that he was wrong and that they couldn't be reversed. I think that maybe if she had such standards of what she wanted us to know for the test, she'd have bothered to come to the review to teach us instead of going to Atlantic City to gamble.
So now my 100 average is shot; and while a 97 is nothing to complain about, it's really just the principle of the thing.
On a lighter note: Because of the move, the student clinic is closed until April 3rd and all sessions that were scheduled until then (ie. mine) have been cancelled. But we still get credit for them. That means that I get to sit at home and do nothing on Thursday evening and Friday and get graduation credit for it! And I get to see if someone will switch with me at H&M because now I can come in Friday night while Colin is at work and then not have to work my 9 closing hours on Saturday that are followed by 9 opening hours on Sunday!
Mmmm. Tonight I'm going to relax and eat and watch Gilmore Girls and wish that I already had my paycheck.
