Those who don't play well with others

Since Monday is the day of reality (classes start), our study group is getting together to figure out a time that is convenient for everyone. The concern is one of the brightest in our group. Obviously, we are all good students. This degree program is so competative, that you'd better have an awesome GPA before applying, so no stupids are here. The problem with "big brain" is that she can't accept any mistakes. If she is graded one point off, she'll argue until she is blue in the face over some obscure little fact she feels wasn't worded right on the exam, which would explain why she answered it wrong. She just doesn't get that sometime things aren't in your face right, and that nursing isn't always as obvious as she believes. On the one hand, I've never seen anyone so prepared for tests. She will devour and memorize everything in her path and I'd love to have her helping with the group. On the other hand, I don't want the instuctors to paint me or the others with her argumentative attitude, because we aren't like that. I think I'll continue to study with her, but I don't think I'd want to work with her.

LATER IN THE DAY: all of the above is forgotten, because I'm in heaven. I went to a visitation for advocate stuff, and came home starving. I stopped at Panera Bread and they had some prime, fresh, soft, chewy bread that I've just used to make a very rare roast beef sandwich with horseradish and provolone cheese. I could not be in a better mood!
