another day in clinic

Today is Monday and we got to seat our neighbor in the chair and suck some water. We used our blue boa and the HVE and the small suction. I must say sorry to Sam, I sucked her cheek a few times and her tounge.  The High speed is very awkward to use by yourself.  I am not feeling very well today so remembering my PE to pass off is proving difficult.  We are going to watch a movie if Saliva were Red. I hear it is pretty yucky so that will be good on my ill stomach.  Oh I did it and passed off the PPE PE. Nice!! Well I barely survived the first week so hopefully I can survive the remainder of the semester, and now I am signing off!

Second day of Clinic

Today was good in clinic. I passed off my Eaglesoft PE which wasnt as hard as I was expecting.  We were able to work with suction on the typodont. Way cool!  We learned how to use the blue boa which will be interesting later in the semester. It looks like it could be very useful.  Working on the typodont is way different than working on a real person.  A lot easier you can get him right where you want him.  I cant wait to get that big chunk of gunk off his tooth though.  The lady that invented the blue boa talked to us which was cool to have her show us exactly what she had in mind when she created it.  Well Im off to radiology next. Today is my long day. Cya

First Day of School

Well I was so nervous this morning, I was sick.  All I wanted to do was come to school and get the first day over with.  I guess its the not knowing that was killing me.  So anyways I have officially survived and it wasnt too bad.  Learning the new computer software was a little confusing I will need to practice so I can pass off my PE.  The clinic seemed really hot, maybe it was just my nerves.  I am still nervous and hoping I will be able to juggle everything and not fail miserably.  I hope once I get through the first week things will become more familiar and the tension will ease.  Everyone seems to be real nice and helpfull.  I am excited and looking forward to the rest of the semester. Cya on the next post.
