mostly a's:  you are not an elven changeling!




















you are human, born in the seen world. your cradle was untouched, and you have remained with your true family. you are brave, loyal, and ambitious. though you are not of the fairy world, you possess an interest in unseen lore. you can sometimes get distracted by every day life, but your modern mind, creative hobbies, and artistic eye will take you far.


mostly b's: you are an Elven Changeling!












you belong to the fair folk. your true home is in the invisible world. you most likely took the place of a human child at birth and may be getting ready to depart the world of humans. you are clever, wise and intuitive. you struggle to fit in with those around you and can be unfeeling towards humans at times. however, you possess the magic of your people and an insatiable curiosity. your disheveled appearance, strange appetite, and unusual hobbies hinder you not. you don’t belong here, and you are proud of it.


mostly c's:  you are a forgotten Elven Changeling!


 

you most likely took the place of a human child at birth but because you have stayed so long with your human family, your changeling characteristics have begun to diminish and soon, will fade completely.  you are clever, wise, and intuitive. you possess a great deal of empathy for others, but can also find yourself confused by their actions. these traits often set you apart from your human relations. your insatiable curiosity and fragmentary knowledge of the human world makes you feel distant and sometimes unwelcome, but if you remember who you are, you may find yourself where you belong again.

using the lord of the rings memes to explain how school has been


my face when I open canvas at 11:30 and
see 7 quizzes, 2 ppts, 4 assignments,
and 3 tables due at 11:59

I am in dental assisting school, and am two weeks away from being finished with all of my classes. I will still have a regular internship for some weeks, but the elation I feel at having completed this long and arduous journey inspired me to look back in a humorous way!












me to myself, honestly 









me for my ICE exam. by God's grace, I passed





























patients side-eyeing you while you adjust the 
x-ray machine

























me studying for the instrument quiz for the first
time as the teacher is passing it out



me and my classmates waist deep in assignments still keepin'
it positive



what patients see when I pass the dr. the syringe


me waiting for the doctor having nothing
to say because I already asked "how are
you?" 



how it felt being one of the oldest in my class


when I realize that the students who barely tried and
still don't know tooth numbers got on the dean's list too.
(I'm not bitter. no, really, I'm not.)



the face me and my classmates make when that
one student won't stop asking questions and end
up prolonging the lecture
