Fall Break

Fall break is well under way and I am wondering, per usual on a break, how is the time going so fast!? With that said, I am thoroughly enjoying my break.  I have yet to do any school work.  Even now as I type this, I am procrastinating from working on school work.  Sigh...story of my life!

Since I last posted, which has been awhile, I received my grade for my first pharm exam (yikes!  That's all I am saying about that one!), had my second and last exam in psych (hooray!) and finished my psych clinical rotation.  I somehow got an A- in my clinical...I assumed I had a B due to the grading philosophy of my instructor.  Long story short; I do not see psych nursing in my future.  I did learn a lot about therapeutic communication and it will be helpful to know about mental illness as I interact with future patients.

Back to my break...I have had a day where I did NOTHING allllllll day and it was fabulous.  I was in my comfies, laying on the couch watching mindless tv shows.  Another day I spent time with my friend and their adorable 2 month old twins, which is always the best!  I also got some time with with the older set of twins I baby-sit on occasion.  Kids really do make everything better and make me so so happy!  Erin and I went into the city to celebrate Outfest; a big gay celebration!  Today, I met a school friend for lunch.  We went to a local place and had delicious pumpkin beers and a good gab fest about school and life.  It was fun.  Erin and I also got to celebrate our two year anniversary!!  We met in the city, took a few pictures, had a drink on a rooftop deck and then had dinner at the restaurant where we had our first day.  It was a perfect evening with my Erin :)  Tomorrow I may or may not have jury duty.  I have to call this evening to see if I have to report.  Fingers crossed they do not need me and I can spend the day lounging/doing school work in the comfort of my new pajama pants (thanks Erin!) with my study buddy Jackson.  By study buddy I mean dog who naps for hours on end!  Worst case, I report for jury duty, spend the day reading and if I get chosen for a case, I have a handy dandy little letter from my advisor explaining the intensity of my nursing program and how it would be detrimental to my education if I missed a day.  HOPEFULLY that is all I will need to be dismissed. 

Well, I am slacked off long enough...back to school work.  Hopefully I get back in a rhythm of updating this blog a little more frequently!
