Today I finished my first class 2 pt. and it only took me an hour for the 2 quads I had to do today. I don't really know if that is good or not, but I felt good about it. I also passed off 2 more PE's. I still need a pt. for next wednesday so I'm getting kind of worried. Plus 2 pt. didn't show up for my classmates today, it makes me worried. They had to go to the library and see if anyone would come in, and no one would.

My pt. showed up today. I was so happy, I got her name from the clinic and she was 6 mo. pregnant so I didn't get x-rays but she was a healthy 1b. I think I was the first to finish and she was a great pt. she may even bring her kids in.

I was clinic assistant today. I think I did ok, and I learned a lot. I didn't do so well when a pt. called to set up an appt. though. I told them I'd call them right back, since she was anxious to set up an appt. but Mrs. Campbell wasn't too happy about that. I'm just used to working in a dental office and helping them right away, not giving their # to a student and hoping they'll call them. But it was good to learn what goes on behind the scenes.

My peer pal Tatiana came in as a pt. for me today, it was so nice of her and she was a lot of help. So I got 4 more quads of a 1B finished so that makes 8! Plus I'll have 4 more when Erik comes in next week, so I think I'm doing ok. I have pt. for the next 2 weeks, but after that I'm screwed, hopefully I can get some people to come in for me.

Today went sooo good. I had a spanish pt. come in from midtown and he was a class 2! I finished 2 quads so I'm feeling really good. He's coming back in 2 weeks so I'm pleased. Hopefully he's not in too much pain, but I think I did well.

Today went really well. I called my dad and he came in and he had x-rays recently so I didn't have to do that and I got all the paperwork done before he got here so it went really smoothly. Then he said he had an appt at 10 and needed to leave by 9:30 so I was stressed. But he didn't have much calculus, just on the lower anteriors and everything went fast. I got a scale check and I had gotten everything! But next Wed. going to be a different story. I'm having a spanish speaking man coming in from the clinic, so I don't know what his condition will be and how I will communicate with him. I just pray he shows up.

Back to school! I was so sad to leave Kire this morning, but I'm excited to get back to work. We learned to use our gracies, kind of. We really can't use them on healthy pt's so I didn't get much practice. Then my pt. canceled for Wed. So hopefully I can find a pt.
