information overload...

2nd Week of PA School. May 23-29, 2011. This week has been crazyness!! 


I-nteresting lecture in "Intro to the PA Professions" by Professor Metcalf; it was all about his experiences as a PA and physician/PA team!
N-ot enough brain space.. i dont think i have enough
F-inally when I have gotten the muscles of the back down, we get the muscles of the lower limb.. fail
O-vertime in the Mavs game caused be to REAL tired tuesday morning.. if they would have lost I would have been mad.. mad and tired are not a good combination. Im so excited they beat OKC and are moving onto the NBA Finals!! I love the mavs :) 
R-ecieved White Coat-- embroidered with "Katie Cole, PA-S' and "LMU-DCOM" :) :) see pic below :)
M-astering the feet muscles is something I do not have at the moment-- there are SO MANY MUSCLES in the feet!
A-bsolutly nothing.. there was so much fog wednesday morning, you could literally see nothing past the hill... see pic below :)
T-riangle..Femoral Triangle! growing to love this thing--hahahaha!
I-nfarction.. i would have had a myocardial infarction if my professor had called me out today. there were 8 students he randomly called out to interview/give a report of a 'fake patient' aka, himself in front of the WHOLE class! the students who were called on did great and after seeing them 'perform', i will be confident next time.
O-ne last anatomy lecture on thursday to finish all the material for our test next thursday!!
N-erves, nerves, nerves.. WHY ARE THEY SO HARD TO LEARN??? 


O-opportunity to finally practice clinical skills on our classmates! Professor Hobbs taught us how to do a head, neck, ears, mouth, and nose exam! 
V-aluable experience.. getting to practice these exams on each other is not only fun but valuable to learn professionalism and how to not look clueless with out instruments. 
E-ars.. watchout for wax in ears.. its gross and will cover up the tympanic membrane so you cant see it! 
R-idiculous amount of cops/sheriffs on either side of the tunnel on friday night!! LITERALLY there were probably 30-40 of them.
L-iscense, registration, drunk driving.. apparently all the cops were conducting a road block! picture below was not taken by myself. it was adopted from my classmate, Jenna Dixon. Thanks Jenna!!
O-nly resident in my apartment this weekend. my roomies left me :( they each went to visit their family! wish I could visit mine. 
A-bsolutely nothing fun happened on Saturday.. slept in late, did laundry, went grocery shopping and watched alot of TV while having a long date with Dr. Gray. Kelcye and I planned on going to Knoxville, but I was too tired. 
D-oors were locked-- on sunday after a nice morning at church with Paige Goforth and a study session at school, KellyAlexRyan, and I tried to go eat at some local BBQ place but it was closed. Next we tried Webbs country kitchen but it was closed too! We finally landed at J. Miltons.. like a Golden Corral but worse, if thats even possible- wait, yes it is-- its called J. Miltons. 


With his sarcastic interest in my blog, Alexander E. Jones, one of my classmates/friends, will be a guest blogger soon! Not sure what the content will be, but it's probably gonna be legit/awesome.
