I Am Alive
I don't know if anyone is still even following this uninteresting old thing, but I thought I would say hello to all my old and neglected friends. I cannot believe that it has been two years since I updated my journal and last talked to all of you! In fact I can't believe that two years has passed at all. I don't think I realized how fast life moved ( Read more... ) -

Notes On the Dark Side
Well I made though my two night shifts with minimal difficulty. It was odd being at work on the totally opposite side of the day. I did like the slower pace of the night shift.

Its 5 AM and I Am Still Going Strong
I have made to five o'clock in the morning mountain time. Woo-hoo! Only two hours left and I can go to bed. So far I have kept myself up by watching yaoi anime and wrapping Christmas and birthday presents way earlier than I usually do. And this is all natural energy; no stimulants for me!!! -

Still haven't worked with chest tubes or PCA pumps yet; and those are what concern me the most. I did get to insert one IV...and fail. However, there are other nurses on the floor who ( Read more... ) -
First Day Jitters
Tomorrow is my first day on the new unit. I'm nervous. I really hope this works out.
I am in the process of deep cleaning my room and probably got about 2% of it done today. Oh well, at least I'll never be bored. In between my books, Netflix, my fanfic, and cleaning I always have something to do.
I started reading The Lovely Bones yesterday in ( Read more... ) -
Wintertime Has Come
It is officially wintertime now. With the snow and the freezing cold weather. My feet are so cold!
In other news I am now addicted to this song. -
Bittersweet Thoughts
So today was my last day on the Rehabilitation Unit. Leaving has left me with...mixed feelings. This was the unit I learned to really be a nurse on. I had preceptors who taught and guided me all throughout this past year. One in particular. She taught me so much and working on a floor without her fills me with something I can only describe as dread ( Read more... )
