DONE!!!!!!!!
Today we were supposed to have a sealant clinic but for some reason it got cancelled. So I am done. I am going to meet with Professor Alexander on Monday and take my final and I am done baby. So glad to be done. I am apparently a glutten for punishment however because I have already signed up for night classed for summer and fall to work on the one remaining year of prerequisits I have left for dental school. All I need is 2 semesters of General Chem, 2 semesters of Organic Chem, 2 semesters of Physics, 1 semester of Bio Chem, and a DAT score.

No More VA
Today was my last day at the VA. It was a really easy day overall. I had perio maintenance patinets both morning and afternoon. My afternoon pt was really frustrating though. He was complaining about how long it was taking and I was the first one of my classmates to get done. I am glad to be done and moving on though. So happpy to be graduating.

Last Day of Clinic
Today was my last day of clinic. I am so excited to be done!!!! I will be graduating a week from Friday horay! I was supposed to have my board patient show up today but apparently she forgot because she didn't show and I couldn't get ahold of her. I feel like the hygiene program has been really great experience for me. It was an emotional rollercoaster of stressed, not stressed, stressed, not stressed. But looking back I feel like I have learned alot and am glad that I did it. I can't belive how much my clinical skills hav improved in two years. Even just this year. I kept getting tagged on little spots of tissue trauma until one day a month or two ago Dr. Hansen watched me scale and pointed out exactly what I was doing wrong and I haven't been marked on it since. I feel that I have grown alot.
