New Year, New Life

I began Physician Assistant school on January 5th. Let me tell you, after being on leave for about a month and then jumping into a strict schedule has not been fun. My schedule is as follows:

0400: Wake up and study
0500: Run with Harley in the neighborhood
0620: Leave for school
0640: Get to school and study
0730 or 0800(depending on test day/scheduling/etc): Start class
1900: Head home after 2 hours of studying at school
2100: Bed!! (After 2 more hours of studying)

I had my first test on Thursday. You have to make atleast a 75 or higher to pass the test. I made an 80. I'm still figuring out what study style works for me. I'm finding that I should review every topic the same night (like they mentioned...). This weekend is "Catch Up Weekend".

Luckily, Rob works evenings so it doesn't seem like I'm ignoring him. Saturdays are Family and Fun days.

I'll just say that the blogs may be sparse from now on until the end of the year. I'll keep things up to date though.
