Ash falling from the sky


A lighting strike causes a big fire outside of Phoenix two days ago. When we were walking to our car tonight there was ash falling out of the sky. The fire is causing huge clouds of smoke in the sky and turning it dark. It was kind of wierd to see ash coming down.

The smoke that we see looks alot bigger than this picture.

So I finally got my scores!!! I found out while I was at work but I couldn't wait till I got home so I had to check. Well I PASSED my summative exam. This was the hardest test of all, my school actually makes it harder than the boards so that if we pass this test we will pass the boards (which is good in a way). But I unfortunately did not pass my practical exam. Which is really weird because I feel VERY confident about my clinical skills and I felt that I did a very good job. I missed the passing grade by 0.7 is that ridiculous!!! Half the class failed so I feel better about that but it means that I have to go back to Philly to test again in July. At least I don't have to take the 6 hour 400 question exam again! I JUST WANT TO BE DONE!!!

So this picture is exactly how it feels in Phoenix. The temp today was 109 and its only June 10Th! The air doesn't feel that bad but the problem is the sun, it is so hot that it feels like it is sizzling your skin just by being outside, and this is only the beginning!
Anyway I still haven't found out about my test, they told us that we will find out by this Friday (which would have been 4 weeks since the test!!!) Cross your fingers for me, I really want to pass!
