Yesterday, a couple from back home died in a motorcycle accident. They have 3 children that are now without both of their parents. Please keep the Graves family in your prayers. John 14:27 "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid."

School is going by so fast. There is not much time for a break. I have taken at least one test for all of my classes this semester. Some turned out better than others but all in all I am making it. God is too awesome. There was one test I did not do as well as I had hoped. Then the teacher randomly decides to give us a 10 point bonus test. God never ceases to amaze me. It is absolutely incredible how much He shows up in my life. I keep saying it but He got me in and I have absolute faith He will get me through it if I put in my part of the work. He has so far and I do not see it changing anytime soon.

This week in our CAPP lab, we have to learn how to use blood glucose meters. This means we have to prick our fingers. This COMPLETELY freaks me out! When I give blood, it makes me more nervous and hurts more for them to prick my finger than shove a needle into my arm. And the thought of having to do it to myself is almost too much to handle. I have to do it again for our finals for a grade and I am probably going to get a bad grade because I am so scared to prick my own finger. I am dreading Wednesday. We got to use our stethoscopes a couple of weeks ago because we learned how to do blood pressure. It was a little hard to get the hang of. I am pretty much a pro now so let me take yo pressure :)

Shoutout to Joshua Dale. I was home and he has a loud truck and somehow he managed to sneak to my house and leave me a surprise that he made me. Perfect ending to a stressful day. He is the best.
