Good luck!!! I will be thinking of you! The idea of having everything we have studied thus far on one test is rather daunting. I don't remember doing a bell ringer test before either but I likely have. Thanks for the good wishes! I will be thinking of you as well!!Me too, because I have my lab test on muscles tomorrow :uhoh21:We can do it, we WILL do it!!!!:smiley_ab :icon_mrgr
Went to lab today after class .. it was packed. There really is no sense studying there now as the last minute studiers have taken over. One of my lab partners didn't show up today either and I have no idea what happened to her. I should really investigate but I haven't yet.
Tonight I have choir practice and I'm going to try to go to bed early and get up and study hard in the a.m. and early p.m.

I can't STAND being around last-minute crammers! Go to church, be relaxed.....get a good night sleep and look over things in the morning.
I am ready for my test tomorrow. More studying won't do any good. It will be hard and I will miss some things but I think I am ok prepared. I don't like last minute things....I will look over stuff before I go to bed and then watch some TV until I fall asleep. Anxiety is up with me though....I'll try to stay calm.

I love that little angel
There comes a time after all that studying that you just have to turn it all over to god so that you can have peace. I trust god that I will recall stuff from my memory (that my brain will not give out on me)
So far so good, it's like I never had that darn menigitis
I'll light my little spiritual candle, it has an angle on it.
We have our big lab exam on Friday!! Keep me in your prayers! I am feeling okay about it .. I don't know it all by ANY stretch of the imagination but I think I would at least pass if I took it today.
Well, I survived the muscle lab test and made a couple stupid mistakes, as usual!!!!! The insertion/origin questions were not as bad as I imagined. Some of the other stuff though was once again crazy, made me scratch my head....I hope that I made a least a 90. Once again he wasn't truthful about stuff, said that the nerves would be bonus questions but weren't. Other stuff was bonus. On a good note he actually lets me review the old tests....I'll be able to it in his office and recall things back into my memeory from the old lecture tests. He'll have 30 questions of each test on the final. So it will be ca. 90 questions. I have to study hard for lecture test 4 which is about the nervous system. Can't bellieve he has us take both at the same time. Hopefully it will all be enough and I'll make it out with an A.
I hope that your test will go good for you. Hang in there!
I'm sure you did fine!! :) ..but hey, IT'S OVERWITH! whewwww!
You are almost finished with the instructor from 'heck'. :chuckle
Kayel, now you get some rest tonight and make your A! :)

Lil' man helped, as I was studying the origin and insertions I looked at Lil' man and tried to remember where those muscles attached on his gorgeous body. Sadly I have to say 'farewell' to him very soon. I'll miss him :chuckle
My buddy 'snapped' at me today.... I understand that he is frustrated but I have helped him a great deal in this course.....I am a little down about it, it hurt my feelings. I guess unhealthy environments bring out the worst in people.
I will buckle down on the remaining material, and can't wait t'ill next Tuesday. It's unbelievable but December is here. I will make lots of cookies during the break.
I hope you didn't imagine every muscle on his gorgeous body. :chuckle Take a picture, you may need it to fall asleep. :rotfl:
About your classmate...I'm sure he is under severe pressure as you are. However, if his grades hasn't been as good as yours, he may REALLY be stressing.
Try not to take it to heart. :icon_hug:
Here, have a :beer: and try to relax a lil' bit tonight.

:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: I'll make sure I'll take a pic of Lil'man,,,,hubby might get jealous if he finds it under my pillow :chuckle he's been replaced by a 'skinny' man (hubby is gitin' a little of that middle-age gut):rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
I keep in mind that my buddy is very unhappy, he is making a B and he is angry at the teacher.
I'll try to relaaaaaax, my son's friend came over after school and they are both bouncing on the trampoline, and are having a blast on this gorgeous afternoon.
