Evacuation again....

i went back to school after Hurricane Gustov and it only affected 1 check-off. We just had to make it up on the 11th after our first major nursing test in our 1500 class. No big deal. So life went on. I had my first Dosage Calculation test. I think I did pretty good on that. Don't know the grades yet. I had my first "real" check-off. We had to do a Head-to-Toe Assessment. Well I forgot the stupid side lung sounds! How could I!? Well I had one of the most strict teachers so of course I received an unsatisfactory. It's funny because I could hear the other teachers helping the other students saying "Now what were we supposed to look for in that area of the body??(pointing to the body part)". If all of the teachers are not going to be consistent then whats the point??? Out of 8 people that checked off with my teacher only 2 passed. And everyone else had no problems with the other teachers....does that make sense??? Anyway...Off that rant now....

So we were back for exactly 10 days then....Hurricane Ike hits!!!! So we were supposed to have our 1500 test on the 11th and we evacuated on the 11th. I just decided to go to my parents house a city over. So right now I am sitting in NO air condition. The house is hooked up to a generator and we are keeping the fridge and freezer cool. It's miserable. Our sewer has to be hooked up also so there is limited amounts of flushing...yes disgusting...we have to take cold showers where we have to get wet, turn off the water, soap up, turn the water back on and rinse off really quick. Yeah it's fun. I don't feel like doing anything...Especially studying...I was supposed to have my first Pharmacology test on Wednesday. I don't think that will happen. Looks like no power for up to 4 weeks. And the place where my school is flooded so there is no telling how long it will be for that damage to be fixed. Yipee. That's just what I need. My school to be harder because it will be even more crammed together. I should have just gone to one of those school where I could get my second bachelor's degrees in nursing in 18 months. it would have been just as difficult and i wouldn't be around here to be evacuating!!!!

Well that's all for now. I guess I will write more when we actually have electricity and I have a school to go back to!
