I've been having an incredibly bad week. With the cats being ill, exams over (where i thought i'd done really badly), money problems, things were going really badly. I even started to doubt whether i was cracked up to be a future dentist
It got to a point where getting out of bed in the morning seemed the hardest thing on earth. Not because i'm lazy, simply because i was feeling too anxious, and was constantly worried about something.
The results came out today, but not before i had a few patients to see as well as a lecture. It got to a point where i was seriously considering ringing the patients to cancel (a VERY big no no in dental school)
After a lot of thought and some straight talking from some friends i decided to go ahead with the appointments, but i said to myself that straight after i would run off home before the results came out.
Well i had a very 'lonely' depressing journey home, to the point where even the rail tracks looked to be a much more welcoming place than facing the music of failing. Thankfully however i made it home safely.
As soon as i got through the door i got a text message from a fellow student saying I HAD PASSED..... with MERIT!!!!!!
I cannot even begin to describe how happy i feel right now. I was so completely and utterly convinced i would fail, to the point where i was trying to think of ways to get out of the situation i would have found myself in had i failed.....
I can absolutely say i'm jumping for joy, and suddenly all my other worries seem much smaller now. I don't normally post here about my private life, as i like to keep it that.... private. But i'm seriously so happy now i just had to share !!!!
