DRMC L&D

I finished my last Dixie regional clinicals of the semester this past weekend which means no more waking up and driving to clinicals at 4:30 in the morning (YAY!!!). Although I still have clinicals Mondays and Tuesdays they are more close to home but I can't help but think they'll be a little boring. thank you to Dixie's labor and delivery for being so accepting of me as student and letting me get involved and learn hands on. I've always been interested in this field and now even more so after such a positive experience. You guys were awesome!! way to know your stuff seriously.
I learned so much from these clinicals but the one thing I'll never forget is how much harder it is to put a catheter in a pregnant lady, tough stuff right there! (sorry if TMI for all you non medical peeps)

Just a few things on the brain today:
I'm really really homesick lately so homesick that when ash told me today that their trip down in two weeks got cancelled I teared up, lame but knowing I don't get to go home until November is killing me, I'd love to just pack up and drive there and see my fam but I guess I'll keep waiting...

My gym pass ends on Sunday. I've gone to golds for the past 2 years and since I'm not working anymore I didn't renew my membership. At my last Zumba night last night I realized how sad I am. crazy cause someone who dreaded working out as much as I did when I first signed up, and now being sad to leave. Crazy how losing the littlest things can make you grateful for what you have or in my case had. So long golds, it's been a good run. sorry for such a love hate relationship : )

I graduate in May. My grad papers are submitted. My cap and gown paid for. Diploma fee paid. I get nausea every time I think about it. Although grateful to not be tied down to Cedar after graduation like some of my married friends waiting for their husbands to graduate, it turns out trying to decide where to go alone is really freaky thought and really stressful.

I'm going to Vegas for the weekend. I can't wait for a much needed break and vacation. and after all the rain we've had this week hopefully lots of sunshine and warmth.

I've loved college. Not a day goes by that I regret doing this. I wouldn't trade the friends I've made, the memories had, or the lessons learned for anything!

Grey's anatomy is on tonight. (deja vu....seems I only blog on Thursdays since I always mention grey's)

I'm a pretty messed up girl : ) who'd think that I have as many mental issues as I do.... crazy how your mind can have so much power isn't it??

Life is great. Life is funny. Seems like my life has more funny moments than others but I love it, wouldn't like it any other way.
