'I'm not crazy, I just a little unwell. I know, right now you can't tell'
I have been stuffy, sniffy, drippy, pukey, and achey for about 9 days now. I am so tired of mouth breathing. My throat is so dry. I have to drink water to soothe it and then I have to use the facilities 200 times a day. My throat is raw and irritated. Much like my nerves. I am 15 days away from graduation! This time of year is a plethora of emotions.
I am:
1.stressed from all the assignments and requirements and a thesis due
2.happy because I will leave WSU dental hygiene dept behind
3.sad because I will leave some great WSU dental hygienists behind
4.anxious because I am nervous for my first day in a real dental office
5.intimidated by the great qualified dental assistants who know so much more that me
6.irritated because I am not perfect and still miss calc!
7.tired-what else do I need to say?
8.honored that the junior class would go to so much trouble to get me a priceless gift.
9.humbled because I know my podmates will not be in the next operatory to help me out when I have a problem or question.
10.afraid that I will have to come back for summer clinic
I will miss some things and then there are some others that I cannot wait to say, 'smell ya later'!

I am so sorry you haven't been able to kick this cold...and now puke on top of all the other stuffiness too. Just think about graduation day....you will be smiling, not sniffling! It is sooooo soon! I'm surprised with all these emotions you listed that we don't all just drop out! Is is really all worth it?? We will know in a month or so!
Mar you always say it so well! I am so sorry that you are sick! I didn't even know because you always look so beautiful:) I think that the stress of everything is creeping up on us all in the form of a cold. Hang in there, cause if you don't I won't be able to either. Thanks for being such a great SADHA president! I would love you to be my hygienist any day of the week!
You said it sister! I can't believe how well you say everything that I'm thinking. It's going to be so great to graduate, but I'm going to miss you guys more than I think even i realize. We are definitely going to have to all get together at least once a year or I might just go crazy. Thanks for everything, you are so great!
No fun!!! I think the illness bug hit us all. You have worked so hard and have accomplished such much, and have passed the hard part of boards, that i think you little body just has to shut down. Hope you are feeling better!!!
