Feeling of Accomplishment

So ever since I came back home for summer vacation, the thought that I had to take multiple pharmacy related exams and look for pharmacy tech positions at pharmacies this summer filled my head. Im the type of person to not want to work so hard, but yet wanting to achieve things that come by hard work. As you can see im quite a contradictory person. However, I have managed to accomplish several things this summer. Among the most satisfying accomplishments happened today.

I woke up early (like 6:30 am) this morning to get ready to take the PTCE (Pharmacy Tech Certification Exam). I had started studying for this exam probably a week after I started summer. I am now into my 4th week of summer. That means that I spent around 3 weeks studying for this exam. I am not trying to brag or anything, but I really did just read through the study book I bought only once. I did one practice exam the day before the exam and went through some electronic flash cards. I have to say, I did not feel that prepared at all. I chose to take it early in the summer because I figured that if I didnt pass, I would just take it again a month later. However, the exam itself wasnt too hard. After I had finished, I still didnt think I did well enough to pass, but lo and behold, I passed. So that happened just this morning and is already the highlight of my day.

In other thoughts, I've been looking at these headphones for a while, and I've decided that I would really like them. However, I've already purchased a good amount of new electronics this summer, and they weren't cheap things either. The headphones I'm talking about are the Dr Dre Beats headphones. I really like the design and the color. Not to mention, in case you want to customize the colors, there is a website to do that. It will cost you another 200 dollars or so to do it however. Anyway, these headphones are priced at $299 which would make it on par with the bose sound cancelling headphones in terms of price. I haven't tested out the audio quality yet, but it seems to be very good as well. So maybe in a few weeks or months I might get purchase it, but right now I'm hesitant to spend that much money again.



Well thats it for now. Next time I will talk about the basketball shoes that I want to get (yes even more stuff and even more money to spend ><). Until then, toodles.
