I think that sometimes when you move to a new place the weekends are the hardest part of the week. It seems backwards but the weekends is usually a time to hang out or go out with friends. When you haven't met friends yet it can be pretty sucky. But luckily I didn't have to be alone this weekend!
Saturday morning I took the pharmacy practice exam which is step one to becoming a licensed pharmacist. I've been told that everyone leaves feeling like they failed, so I wasn't going to get worked up about it during or after the test. I attribute lots of prayers and studying to the peace I felt. After the test I received a text from the grandson (Paul) of a lady from the church I grew up in (Lucy) inviting me to go to lunch with him, his girlfriend, and her friend. I was so grateful to have people to hang out with. It was fun and they invited me grill out that night. I am so appreciative to them for inviting me to spend time with them, and I look forward to getting to know them better. It also turns out that Paul and his girlfriend go to the church I've been going to (2 weeks now).
I'm in another week of training (our training takes about 2 months). My day/week was much improved, though, when I found out that I passed the NAPLEX! I decided to celebrate by buying a Snickers. It turns out that a king size was on sale for $1. This test is a big deal, so I bought a king size. :)
You deserved a box of Snickers! Way to go!
