My birthday was absolutely wonderful.  Turning 23 really didn't feel any different than turning 22, and I feel more energized about being a "young adult" at this moment.  Jonathan drove down Saturday night to spend my birthday with me, and yesterday, we went to Houstons on the Plaza for dinner (delicious ribs, yummy!)  Aunt Annette baked sugar ( Read more... )

So New Moon was pretty good, although it wasn't as fangirl-tastic as I assumed it would be. Granted, I didn't care much for New Moon the book and it's the only one of the series I hadn't re-read. Hadley, Noah and I went to see it together at the giant amazing AMC near their apartment. The theater was even selling shirts -- freaking shirts! -- that ( Read more... )

So I got a call this morning around 5 am.  I was pretty much anticipating it anyway.  Yesterday, when I went into work, they had put me as the aide for the day.  By 5pm, we were so overstaffed (4 nurses to 8 patients, not counting me; two of them orientees), they told me I had to go home.  They let me peddle around and draw out some tasks to get ( Read more... )

So I drove up to Columbia today for fluffylovekitty's birthday -- in fact, as I type this, we sit in the living room watching Kim Possible and peddling away on our computers.  Laura had warned me she didn't have a cake, so I brought one up where I scribbled "Happy Birthday Twin! =D " in purple gel icing.  We went to Jazz's to eat dinner with some of Laura's ( Read more... )

So I have this gay neighborhood with the Twilight Cullens, Hermione and Ron plus baby Hugo, a series of my original characters, and Sim versions of my friends.
I say 'gay' because mysteriously A LOT OF GAY STUFF IS GOING ON.
This is what I get for putting everyone on Free Will at the highest level.

I stumbled across the neatest blog recently -- "A Rinkya Blog", which lists interesting commercial items coming straight out of Japan. Did you know the Sony PSP comes in like, A BAZILLION COLORS over there? From Mint Green to shiny red, and beyond. There's even a spectrum of pastels -- not to mention funky Pokemon-color DSes.  Japan also apparently ( Read more... )

I had my second-to-last clinical rotation today ever.

I mean, that I don't get paid for.

One of the positions at St. Luke's rejected my application again.  But that's totally not what this post is about.  Ironically enough, this story comes to you from St. Luke's itself, where I am having my clinical rotations.

I was pushing an IVP medication with my ( Read more... )

Overall, my spring break was extremely exciting and full of fun, new things.  The first weekend was Naka-kon -- and I'll eventually update with Saturday and Sunday -- and then, this past weekend, I visited Twinnie in Columbia.  It was a wonderful, relaxing, fun weekend.  I'm thinking of applying at one of the hospitals down there, just to see if I ( Read more... )
