Nearing the end

I feel like I've kinda abandoned this blog...  That's mostly because I have another blog dedicated to selling my house, and because I've been surprisingly busy lately.  A lot has happened!  Last entry I sold my couches in preparation for my move back to Utah.  It was maybe a bit hasty because now I have almost no furniture in my living room.  However, it makes it feel huge, and I have lots of random camp-outs on my living room floor.  I actually kinda like it.  Speaking of which, I'm almost certain I've sold my house.  We sign the contract tomorrow afternoon, which I'm very excited about, but also really sad.  I'm going to miss my little home...

In other news, last Tuesday was my last day of dental school.  That's right, LAST DAY!!!  Honestly, after taking clinical Boards mid-April, the rest of school was pretty much a down-hill slide.  It was surprisingly anti-climatic.

Since I haven't caught things up in a while, here's the story of Clinical Boards, or WREBS.  Basically this is the mother of all tests that we build up to throughout dental school.  You have to find three very specific patients who are willing to show up and go through this experience with you.  Often this involves bribery of some form, including the promise of free dental work.  I thought it was funny that this year our test happened to land on Friday the 13th which was also the day when massive storms (including tornados) were being predicted!  Luckily there were no tornados involved, but there was a huge thunderstorm.  Seriously, that's something I'm going to miss about living in Nebraska - thunderstorms, not tornados.


They had originally told us it would take a month to get our scores back, but two days later I found out I passed all the sections of my boards!!  That means Utah will now give me a license to practice dentistry (once I actually get that diploma)!  Speaking of which, graduation is coming up next week.

So there you have it.  Those are the major events that have happened in my life in the last month or so.
