Day 118 - Anatahuh?

After last night's shenanigans, I decided to take this afternoon off from the J-O-B and do some studying for tonight's final exam in Anatomy. I'd like to say that I was super-productive at the J-O-B, but I can't lie. I got some stuff done, but was too anxious about the exam to really be gung-ho about working.
Once I got home, I had some lunch, a spoonful of Nutella, and then proceeded to basically type out my own study guide in Power Point. It sounds silly, but it gave me the opportunity to go back and forth with all of my resources to get the information I need and try to put it in a logical fashion. I guess you could say that "it works for me."


After nearly three hours of doing that, I was pretty tired. After a spoonful of Nutella and setting the alarm on my cellphone, I laid down on the couch and looked at my Power Point study guide in presentation mode and kinda sorta fell asleep for a little bit.
When my alarm woke me up about a half hour later, I made some cawfie, got some dinner, enjoyed a spoonful of Nutella, got ready, and went to school, getting there almost 40 minutes early.
Several classmates were studying, so I joined in, chiming in when needed.
Our instructor was late due to traffic, giving us more time to study. When she arrived, we did a little review. During this time the education director came in and explained to us that for the next few weeks, there will be security at the school for our safety - due to a former student (our former classmate) who may not be reacting well to a situation. It didn't take a genius to figure out exactly why we were on lock-down last night.
We finally took the exam. I think I did pretty well. At least a 90%, but we didn't get our grades. There were only a few questions that I kinda guessed at, but all-in-all, I confidently went right to the answer.
After I finished, I signed out and got home at a decent hour. Now...where's the Nutella?

Day 117 - On Lock-Down

In this evening's anatomy class, we reviewed some osteology (bone) and arthrology (joints) prior to our quiz, then took our quiz. I'm sure I did well.
While my classmates and I were relaxing and chatting in the student break room, the education director came in and informed us that due to a situation, we were on lock-down. No students could go outside as the doors were locked and there were police outside.
That was a little freaky.
Little?
Especially since most of my classmates and I had a theory about what the lock-down was all about...or who and why, despite administration's denials that it had nothing to do with a student.
During the next break while there were many students in the breakroom (which is full of windows), they told us to go back to our classrooms.
All the activity made it very difficult to be able to process the information on which the instructor was trying to lecture.
Tomorrow is the final exam. At this point, I'm a little freaked out about the whole lock-down thing and the exam. Maybe I need a mental health day from work. Or at least half a day.
