Updating Time
Gosh, I realize how bad I am at this...but when you live a busy and hectic life like myself, it is hard to keep everyone else up to date, let alone myself!
I will just say briefly that my Christmas holidays were fantastic! It was so great to be home and see all my family and friends! All my family except Reg and J of course who had to stay out in Oliver to do the duties of the Lord.
My holiday time consisted of many good coffees at the Esso, a couple illegal trips to the Last Chance Saloon in town, games nights and Jen's, a hell of a rowdy evening for newyears and of course lotsa hanging out with the fam. So much family in fact that I had to make a trek to Yorkton Sk for my great grandmother's 100th birthday. Besides the joyous fact that God had blessed her with 100 years of life....the event was not such a blessing. Good old family reunions where you get to hug and take pictures with people you dont really know but call "family". GREAT times! Okay so i'm a bit of a hater...but we all know how it feels. I was also able to get in some quality kereoke time at Kirbs place and go ice fishing with her and my pa! Unfortunatley the best we did was the minnows we used as bait...but hell, it was a good time.
Of course the holidays went way too fast and before I knew it I was back here in Calgary getting ready for semester 2. I quickly found out that this semester is going to be quite alot more work than last. With a full course load and clinical once a week I may have my hands full.
My first clinical was yesterday, which really only consisted of orientation. Met my group, went to Rockyview Hospital...(which just happens to be the furthest hospital away from me) and did a tour of our unit. While i am quite excited to start the real life aspect of nursing, it also scares me shitless. Its hard to believe that I am at this point already. It looks like it will be quite interesting....everything except having to wake up at 4:30 in the freakin morning....dont people know my body doesn't work that way!
Ah well, all in all things are good!
Bye for now....I'll try to keep you better updated this time.
