Grumpy, Cranky, and going to whine about it...
I'm so sick of studying for this exam. My back is sore from being so inactive and from sitting/laying down all day long. I've spent the entire weekend in the house, barely even stepping outside to get some fresh air. I feel so lethargic. Yes, I know, stop the damn complaining...at least I'm getting the opportunity to even write this exam now...
I wish it was tomorrow so that I can get it down and over with. It doesn't even feel like I've done much studying for this, definitely not anything active anyways. Usually when crunch time comes I'm quite good at concentrating and doing my thing. Not this time...It's probably more that I don't know what to expect or what to study for especially I was taught by a different system. That's my major concern...At least things are relatively fresh in my mind, could be better but it could also be worst.
It's going to be one of those things that doesn't really reflect how much you know because it's suppose to be all clinical and not really theoretical. So in that sense, I think I'll be alright but then again it is 4 long hours of multiple choice after multiple choice questions. There are a few sample questions and some of them were on things that we were introduced to but never really got into detail. It was like, I have no idea what you're suppose to do for some rare skin condition or barely even know what the heck the question is talking about. The answers for some were just tricky. It could have easily been another choice because that's also correct too but whatever...MCQ are always like that eh...It makes me feel like I'm back at UW again...
I guess I'm just cranky and grumpy that I'm so inactive, mostly because of this foot problem that has developed into a major problem. I've had this heel pain for about 2 months now, mostly during games when I bound onto first base. Usually it's not a problem because I run on the balls of my feet but when my foot plants on first it kills and stays with me for the rest of the game. I played in this tournament 2 weekends ago and it flared it up bad. So bad that I couldn't even touch weight bear on my heel by the end of that Sunday and definitely not for the next few days. It's been a week and a half and it still hurts to weight bear on it but at least I can fully weight bear and no real visible limp anymore. If I had to make a differential diagnosis, it would be either a bad case of plantar fasciitis or stress fracture. I had an xray done on it before this flare up and it came back negative so it's not a stress fracture. At least not one that has shown up on the xrays yet (there's usually a delay from when a stress fracture occurs and when it can be seen on the xrays). My bet's on the first option because the pain is right where the attachment of the plantar fascia is....I hate when the only true solution is rest...

Hey, all the best studying. You can do it. FOCUS!!! It's so close. Too bad I wasn't there, or I'd do it with you just to keep my brain fresh..
I know how you feel about being grumpy cause you're not doing anything cause that's what it's like at work. Don't worry, it'll be over soon for you. Look toward the prize =)
