Sharpen/Being a Patient day

Today I got to sharpen instruments for the first time. At first I thought I was doing more damage than good but then it started getting sharper and catching on the test stick. I took that as a good sign. Hopefully I will get this down soon. I'm sure we all will. For the rest of clinic and half of radiology I was a patient. It was nice and its really good to see what the patients side of it is like. Especially with x-rays they poke into your mouth so I tried to get those side cushion things. (I cant remember what they're called now) Those help. It turned out alright I had to do a few retakes but I am going to get there. Thats what I'm here for is to learn right. There are those times though I just wish I did it right already, but I guess I'll appreciate it more when I get there. Bye for now! =)
