That's how my week has progressed everyone. I am battling the bug that's been goin around the island with OJ, H2O, Multivitamins, and sheer will power (LOL) but some how being near the beach helps this bug disappear. May I request that you guys pray for my family as they do their best to support my education and that both my family and I stay relatively healthy during my stay here. A new week is about to start and I am about to change gears and prep for Histology tommorow. As far as my block exam results, I passed all of exams this first block. I pray that everything gets re-organized at school and that everyone have a safe week. Until next time.
