Boring...

I think my life is pretty boring right now. Other people are writing about exciting trips or things they have done, or even interesting thoughts. I have done none of these things lately. Early on in my blogging Brenna told me I have to write often to keep my "following"(maybe you should remember this too, B :) ). I can't seem to think of anything blogworthy lately.

But, I guess that is a good thing. Since I tend to write about the incredibly horrible things that happen in my life (I think I'm a bit of a drama queen), I think that means things are going pretty well (minus the minor credit card fraud and associated phone calls I have been receiving). I am well on my way to passing Family Dentistry (our one class this year) and am about the breach the "C" range. This is the biggest hurdle up the grade ladder. Once I get past here I can advance pretty quickly through the grades by a mere couple hundred points instead of 3800 for a "D" or the 4250 for a "C-". Right now I am on track for an "A-" if I continue to work hard and have good luck with my patients. I am hoping that I can take a big jump in my class rank if I do well since everyone either is doing general dentistry and doesn't care about grades, or already matched into a specialty and really don't care.

My biggest hurdle toward graduation--getting my molar root canal patient to come back! She is my last requirement and wont make an appointment. I may have to find another.

So, my life is pretty boring. But I prefer it to the excitement of boards, the stress of worrying about graduation, or the craziness of just being way busy.

I think the fact that you are almost an official dentist makes your life very unboring. I have no idea what I want to "be" when I grow up:)

I don't think your life is boring at all. You've been given a gift with dentistry and you're on your way to helping people in the future with that gift. I commend you for that.

Hey Erin! This is Lindsay-your-freshman-roommate-Lindsay. I've been reading your blog all along and have just been too lazy to comment. Glad to hear what you're up to and that you're doing well. I love hearing about all of your drama. Makes me feel okay about my drama!
