totus tuus ego sum Domine

my exams took me to Hamilton today...... I am so tired but I can't fall asleep..... I've been up for almost 20 hrs now but sleep still illudes me..... I had never been so nervous for an exam in my entire life...... it was a 7 hour ordeal..... the actual exam was only 2.5 hrs, with one hour orientation before...... but the rest of the 3.5 hours was spent in sequestration, until the 2nd group of examinees was finished and the 3rd group safely behind the secure exam area..... talk about security...... this was to prevent us from discussing the cases with them..... I decided to stop by the Hamilton cathedral (Christ the King) before the drowsy drive back home...... all is in the hands of the Master now..... in manus tui, Domine......

1 Ad te, Domine, clamabo; Deus meus, ne sileas a me:
nequando taceas a me, et assimilabor descendentibus in lacum.

Sounds like a painful and stressful experience!

Actually down here the Usmle's(med boards) are a good 8 hour exam and that's the actual length of the exam!!
My Rx for these exams....lots of gatorade, red bull, and power crunch bars!!

Good luck with the results!!!!
