Time for an update

I've realized that it is time for a much needed update. Summer classes ended last week and I now have two weeks off remaining. I finished off everything pretty well and I think that I will do okay in my classes. I did have a scare this morning though. I got online to check what I had gotten on the final and my grade said 85/200, that would be a 42%, which would mean that I would get kicked out of nursing school, they require us get a 75% on all our tests. I talked to a couple people that said our professor entered our percentage grades not the points we earned. So I actually got an 85% on the test, good enough for an A- all around in the class, so that's good.

I bought my books today for my fall nursing classes, $260. My MedSurg book is the biggest textbook I've seen in my entire life! 2217 pages which doesn't include the index or the front intro stuff. I also went on an adventure today to look for some kind of PDA that I can put my reference books on so that I can carry them around with me at clinical in the fall like my dictionary, drug guide, and test results guide. I found out that PDA's no longer exist, old technology. So I am contemplating buying a Blackberry.
