Giving Shots...





Looking back on this day, I laugh at how stupid I acted. :) We first learned how to inject oranges then moved onto...OURSELVES! Omg it was really scary!! It took me about 10 minutes but I finally did it...and of course, it didn't hurt at all. I'm such an idiot sometimes ;) Then we gave eachother 4 a few shots to practice. The following monday we went to the clinic and gave flu shots :) It was really scary at first (i stuck myself with a needle) but I was able to relax :)

Huntsman Cancer Institute


I don't have very many pictures from my last provo trip...partly because I'm getting chubby and don't look good in pictures anymore. Mandy and I ate SO much! On Friday we drove up to Salt Lake to go to Body Worlds III and the Huntsman Cancer Institute. I definitely want to work there someday. It made me re-think my whole nursing career and consider becoming an Oncologist. It was a magnificent building and still gives me chills to thinking about it.

School is alright. It seems that there's a test everyother day, which is hard. It'll be worth in the long run though :)

Thursday

I didn't watch BL on tuesday because the election
was on :-/ I took a test instead...which is probably a
better choice anyways...then I stayed up until 1am doing my pediatric workbook. Wednesday I studied all day for med/surg and will probably take that test today sometime. Grey's Anatomy is tonight! Watching greys was definitely more exciting last year. The build up to Thursdays were intense...this year not so much. I still love it and am obesessed, but with all the added studying, Grey's is definitely the last thing on my mind :-/.

Also...on Monday we are giving flu shots at the clinic, so today in class we are practicing. Before sticking eachother with needles, we have to give ourself a shot in the stomach. I am pretty much shaking right now. gah! I hate shots!!

Fall Break is 6 days away. Thank heavens!

Christmas in October :)



This week has been crazy! The tests and projects never end! Wednesdays are so boring. I try to pay attention, but texting seems more appealing :) Today was such a weird day...because I laughed a lot for no reason at all. Stress can make me giddy too. I'm already tired of school and am looking forward to Christmas...haha only because I won't be trapped in Richfield for a whole 3 weeks!! Wooo!!!

I'm driving to Provo on Friday to spend conference weekend with Mandy! I was a crazy psycho on my last trip there and had an hourly schedule of the weekend. I can't believe I have turned into my grandpa!! I always get SOO annoyed every Christmas because my grandparents type out a 4 day schedule of the activites that are going on...by the hour. So...no more schedules. It stresses me out to much! Hahaha. I have to get through tomorrow's med/surg test and a surgery assignment and then I'm set to go!
