The best day

I hate the fact that we are on a rollercoaster. On Monday I had the worst day and today I had the best day! Sarah Wood was opposite of me, she had her bad day today, sad! I had a new patient today and I did a full mouth series with conventional film. 40 peices of film to handle and mount wonderfully! And guess what, no retakes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is awesome for those of you that don't know, I'm super cool! I think that I will be able to do the phosphor plates next time to and be ok, I think my big mistake will be a learning experience in the end!

Nail bitter

This whole semester so far(it's only been one week) has felt like two months because of all the stress of finding appointments and junk like confirming and getting HHXs to people in time to get them back. It is a lot. My goal is to get all of my HHx's out to the people that that need them for January this week! That will make my life a little easier I think!

My reason for learning





My two kids Nate and Syd are the reason that I continue on in this program, even though it's hard. To show them later in life that I can do hard work and that they should too! Aren't they cute!!!

Horrible, no good, very bad day

I have never heard so many of my fellow students say that they just want to quit because they don't think they can hack it!. Everyone had a horrible day they first day with patients. I know 4 horror stories off the top of my head that went wrong with x-rays! Me being one of them. The phosphor plates are stupid and I shouldn't have done a full mouth series with them because half of them got deleted! Hailey had to take a pano 3 times because Mr. Solomon put the wrong film where the normal pano film went. And Casey had to retake 3 of 4 bwx. This day sucks!!!!!!!!

First day of second semester

Today was great we learned about our Gracys (there are three that we have) and the ultrasonic. It was so much fun to use the Gracys I don't know why! Maybe because I feel everything that I have learned about intrumeting coming back to me and I am begining to do things without thinking. Yippy. Wensday is our first patient day and believe it or not I am not nervous! We will see what comes. My goal is to speed through probing
