Don't Yell at me

You know a surefire way to make me become unhelpful really really fast? Yell at me. Oh and don't forget accuse me of doing something wrong towards you. I hate people sometimes. And I'm sorry these patients were of a certain nationality, I do not want to be racist but it seems to happen mostly with them. So I do not know why I was surprised to get such an ugly phone call. I tell everyone that calls the exact same information and this woman is telling me that I told her there would be reimbursement. I'm sorry but when you go to the doctor your health insurance card is not a debit card. Nor is it a bank that automatically pays for your visit. Yes, you will have to get out your credit card or your money and pay me cus guess what? The doctor is NOT FUCKING FREE. Yeah, she went through 8 years of med school so that she can treat your fucked up back for free. Are you stupid? Like really at one point when she was asking why she had to pay the office visit fee I wanted to ask her that exact question. REALLY?!? Are you kidding me? Wow... enough of that. Sometimes I really hate people... oh and she yells at me for the payment and she made us wait 2 hours for her to show up cus she called as an emergency. We waited over an hour after we closed because we told her we would take her. Her 30 minutes til we get there turned into 2 hours. Let me tell you, one of the last times I will be that helpful for someone that I do not know in the office.

In other things... I got through midterms. Let me tell you... that midterm for fundamentals... it was a doozy. I appreciate the way she did it though because she showed us what boards could be like. They aren't going to be super easy. I got an 89, would have been better if I hadn't made stupid mistakes, but I hopefully have learned from it and will now know what to expect on the final. I'm not going to fail any of my classes but I really need to buckle down and study hard for the last 7 weeks. The foundations (essentially my history class of China and Chinese Medicine) midterm was 4 essays (take-home). It was 5 pages long and included a lot of the knowledge that he gave us over the first 6 weeks. It was fun though, they were not strict questions they were very "you're having a convo with your Aunt Eleanor, what would you tell her about this...." types of questions. The bio midterm, was bio. I hate biology and I am not excited for the 2 science classes I have to take next semester. At all. Though I do get to take my Anatomy I class with Milo look-alike. That's delicious in all ways... be a little nicer if he would cut his effing hair. His shirts for the last couple of weeks have been his size so it is nice to see the runner body but my god man... cut your hair. There are females in the room lol. Give us some eye candy.

Made my schedule for next semester. No clinic hours for me yet, I must take it a bit slowly so clinic will be in the winter semester. For now I will have Tui Na Hand Techniques and Tui Na Structural Techniques, Anatomy I, Principles of BioChemisty, Fundamentals 2 and Herboloby I. I didn't take anatomy this semester so I can't do acupuncture points yet. PPPPPPOOOOOOOOPPPPP. But I'm okay with being in school a bit longer than everyone else. I have a good job and I need to keep it. Without it I can't afford to go to school! Vicious cycle if I do say so myself.

Somedays it's a bit scary knowing that I have been at this job for 1.5 years. I miss waiting tables sometimes, I'm sure I will eventually go back to it for a bit. Just for the fast money! But until then. What's scarier is knowing that I potentially have this job for practically the next decade. Job security my friends, job security. Now I just wish the money tree would grow in my backyard and then I would have monetary security. Cus right now the lack of money is frightening. FRIGHTENING. When I get my refund check in September I am correcting what went wrong this time.

I will be 27 in 11 days. Commence the freaking out. Plans are shaping up though so it will most certainly be fun! Please don't rain mother nature. PLEASE. By July though, it is usually hotter than balls here on the East Coast, in the armpit of the United States. We have no middle ground. Ok this is a long post. Back to work for me. Then home to do some studying and some reading!

Such ugly layouts

Ok can someone tell me where I can find better layouts? Blogger layouts suck and it really really makes me want to go over to my wordpress blog and make that super active. LOL...

True Grace: The Life and Times of an American Princess




Soooo over at http://findyournextbookhere.blogspot.com/ a new blog that I totally am enamored with because it's all about books she has all these book blogging things she is involved in. I really like a bunch of them and want to attempt some. This is one I'm going to try and do because with school I don't think I can get through many of the other ones: http://atozchallenge.blogspot.com/. I have chosen to do the A-Z Title Challenge. I will keep you updated and add a post about just it so I can follow my list.

Anyways this book was awesome. Grace Kelly was a bit of a slut. Is that awful to say? Let's just say that she got around Hollywood, and you know what? Who the hell cares? I love that she was free spirited and did not restrain herself. It is also funny that in the introduction to the book Wendy Leigh tells the reader that if you a certain set of beliefs about Grace Kelly and do not want to spoil them then her book is not for you. She got juicy details and didn't hold back in her biography. I think that's what made it even better!
And hot damn Princess Grace was beautiful. What a tragic ending though. She knew she was going to die in a car accident and she did. Now I want to go watch some of her movies, it's a shame she had to give up her acting career when she married the Prince of Monaco. More to update later!

Hi to all the people visiting

It's pretty cool to see all these people on my visitor list. But hey leave me some love! Even if it's anonymous. My blog is not exciting in any sort of way but let me know you are here!

My phone has been acting funny since the 3.0 update. Damn you iPhone, I will plug it back in later and try to make it work better. And where the hell is my video feature? And my MMS, late summer my ass. Ridic.

Planning a weekend to Rhode Island and Massachusetts in July. Yay! Then I will come home and gear up for finals. The new schedule comes out today for the Fall... yippy. Quite a few classes to take next semester. I hope Milo look-alike prof teaches one of them. I would like something nice to look at as I struggle miserably through more science. What the hell was I thinking? That will be my mantra for the rest of my time.

Had acupuncture done on Wednesday. It was lovely. Totally fell asleep with the needles in. They gave me some pills to take to break up the blood stagnation that I have going on right now and to build my yin. Did that just sound like Charlie Brown's teacher to you? Bet it did.

Mama Kat Wednesday on Friday

Yeah I know that it's Friday but better late than never? Does that work? I hope so. Please believe me I would have done this on Wednesday had I not been taking midterms and trying hard not to kill myself for going back to school. What was I thinking?

So here is prompt one from this week:

1.) Grab your current read. Let the book fall open to a random page and share two “teaser” sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.

"She would receive me in a marvelous housecoat. Very proper and very elegant, but without any makeup and she was ravishing"

It sounds kinda dirty don't it. But it is not. It's from the book True Grace by Wendy Leigh about Grace Kelly. So far I'm loving it.

Now go hang out with Mama Kat, she's hysterical and has great kids (most days LOL) and she wants to be on Ellen! Ok I dont know what the hell is up with my blogger so I will give you the link typed out... stupid blogger. http://mamakatslosinit.blogspot.com/

Current thoughts on being blonde

The boys seem to like it. Am I now a piece of meat? Is it cus these boys now think I am stupid? Yes this blog will be littered with awful things about blonde stereotypes, get over it. Today my boobs are out, or rather my lack of boobs. Is this now acceptable because I am blonde? LOLOL... this is fun. I'm also wearing heels, who knows maybe blonde makes me feel sassy.

It was a good weekend, busier than I thought it would be, much less studying than I thought there would be. Saturday I spent 4 hours with my hair stylist, making me a blonde. And we are not talking dirty blonde, I am some Irish Cream base blonde and then some super bleach blonde chunks. Crazy talk. I kept laughing the entire time. This is the girl who will take blue-black any day or give me a pretty red. Now I'm all ready for summer with a head of blonde hair. He is also down for being my SG stylist. Which is this upcoming Sunday... who's nervous? Not me, no way, how could I be nervous to get naked and take pictures that will then be posted on the internet? Man oh man, good thing I'm going into a field where I can own my own business.

I have had this conversation with some of my friends though, all about be careful what you do cus this can be put on the SG dvd, the calendar (i wish I was hot enough for the 12 months of a calendar), or in a book like the one that I have sitting in my house. Is it wrong that I'm like "are you kidding me? If they put me in the book it will be on my coffeetable. Eff that." I want people to flip through and be all like "Whoa, is that you?" So that I can then respond "HELL YEAH BABY!" Oh, Suicide Girls, here I come. I find it so funny how my greatest ambition right now is to strip naked and be a Suicide Girl. Not volunteer for Habitat for Humanity, not run a 5-k, but to strip naked. Take the bull by the horns I guess.

The rest of Saturday consisted of Hibachi for a friend's birthday, surprising everyone with my new hair and then going to see the boys play. Sadly, they had to end at 1 am so we only got to hear 5 songs. LAME. The place was packed. Okay as I said in one of those last posts I am having a tough time getting over a crush. Why must he seem so perfect? Damn you kid. Anyways, seeing him Saturday, it's officially over. I think it is a combination of the girl he likes (but isn't dating cus he's actually aware that it is too soon for him to date, though as I write this watch him ask her out) and the fact that he likes to throw the "bestie" word around and not back it up. I hate people that don't follow through. He loves that I'm super honest and don't bullshit. So why you gotta bullshit me honey? Sad and quite lame. Or maybe he's totally in love with me and doesn't want to admit it. I would take that as a reason too, but for fuck's sake let's be honest. Quite the turn off to hear things and get no back-up you know what I'm saying? But hot damn do I love that kid. LOLOL. In 30 years we will marry and grow old together. Then again, there are a ton of hot, tattooed boys out there for me to crush on.

And now back to work. So much studying to do. Final tomorrow morning! Yay!
