SO there is only 17 days left until my last day of school for the year. So excited. I have already started cleaning out all the junk in my room that I won't ever need.
Not going to lie though, I am going to miss Regina. I've met some pretty awesome people, and there is a few spots in this city I'll miss partying at and eating at and such.
Like Fresh and Sweet, the best sweet and savory breakfast place of all time
And michi, the greatest sushi
And La Macroon, desserts to die for
And wascana park
and the Creek Bistro, more good food.
So yeah, I'll mostly be missing food. But even more so the people I won't be living with in North Battleford next fall as we are all being split up four ways.
Le sigh
More changes!
The summer will be excellent though. Fingers crossed I get the job at the hospital in Stoon. And then Sam will be home soon, and then her and I are going to Craven with her friends from BC. haha that will be an experience. And being with all my friends again :) it shall be nice. I just want to drink beer in the sun on James' lawn :-p
Gotta get through these next few weeks though. This week is going by fairly fast. The more time I spend on the ward, the more confident I get. I'm not as shy when I want to talk about care plans and client care with the real life nurses now haha. And I don't hesitate with my skills :) its so awesome, I cannot describe how rewarding this rotation has been. Seeing people progress from a terrible accident or condition, to going back to being able to go home and be independent. Its awesome.
Next week I have to have whole new clients though, which is somewhat sad. I've grown rather attached to mine :(
But yes, we have friday off so I'll hopefully be back in Saskatoon thursday night, given Canadian Tire is done with my car (450 alternator fix, shoot me).
I am actually contemplating just selling the thing this summer and starting from scratch. I bet even a sunfire would last longer then this one has.
Anyway, I'm off to school with dear Deejai to finish (I mean start) our pharmacology presentation that is due tomorrow. Joys/

I guess I'm Broken
Today was busy. Didn't have to go to clinical because we were getting fitted for our respirators. Apparently I'm broken because I couldn't taste the horrible spray that everyone else could taste while getting tested. Those fitted respirators are a pain in the ass though, if I wasn't claustrophobic before I sure as hell am now. Way too tight.
After that we just did client research all day. My one client who I had for a day has been taken from me so now I have two new ones. So I'm pretty excited.
Deejai and I are doing a presentation on cytotoxic drugs next week so we had better get a head start on that one asap. Already with this short week I feel like I am waaaayyyy behind.
After research I went and met Chelsey A for some stirfry at Mongolie Grill. She's moving back to Ontario on Saturday and won't be back until after she has the wee babe so I had to say my goodbyes :( It was a good visit though.
Then Erin told me to meet her at Houstons for some good visits. So I went there, found out they had three dollar highballs, and decided to never leave. So good.
Went home and worked out the guilt of eating and drinking shitty things. I promised myself I would stop eating junk, Alas, junk tastes so good and is so easy to access when there is no time to make anything healthy.
Now I am going over some high fidelity lab senarios which I was just informed about like three seconds ago. Le sigh, these last three weeks will be the death of me.
YES I SAID LAST THREE WEEKS
Saskatoon, I can taste it.
Soon

Well last night was fun :)
Around five I went over to Kristen's and got ready for our night out there. At 730 we went to Michi with a bunch of other people from class for the bestest sushi ever. I got to have infinite toro which has become my new fav choice.
After that we all went back to Kristen's to do some predrinking before we went out to the bar. Found out that some of the guys there are actually really good friends with Liz and Jordan :) so super small world.
Eventually we made it to The Owl, drank a little more then I should have and at one point I agreed to go to Gabbos. It was decent, Chelsey knew someone who got us in and paid for our cab which is always wonderful lol.
This morning I was just miserable. Txt my roommate begging her to get me a taco but she refused. Eventually she agreed to drive me to the mall so I could get one. SOOO delicious. Then I napped for a while.
Went for supper with Chelsey Abraham to the Knotted Thistle where I had a super duper delicious burger :) Chatted about her upcoming move to Thunder Bay, and talked about the baby (she's pregnant dawe )
Now I am chilling at the house watching Community, the greatest show on the planet.
Tomorrow I'm off to Stoon for Mothers Day!!!

Let's Try this Again
Sweet Lord I haven't blogged since Feb??? Kind of tempted to scrap anything and start all over. Jk, but I promise I'll try to get back into the swing of things.
So I started third semester a couple of weeks ago, and there was a brief moment where we all waited with our breaths held because there was a chance I wasn't going to make it through. Stupid mother fucking anatomy. That shit's hard, but in the end I won :)
This semester is only two months ish long, and already it has been flying by. The last two weeks we having been going over health concepts of all the body systems. Up until now we've spent all of our time learning about whats normal, not we are focusing on clinical manifestations of everything that could go wrong. It is super super interesting.
Next week we are doing a quick two day review of the skills we learned in first semester like catheters, etc. Then it's off to four weeks of solid clinical. It's gonna be so intense, but I'm looking forward to it.
My placement is back at the Rehabilitation Center. Which to be honest was slightly disappointing at first because I have already been there, but I'm on the active rehab unit so hopefully it will be a lot more interesting.
I just really want to get er done so we can go to North Battleford.
Yes, I said it.
I'm excited for NB.
We'll finally be starting into the actual psych aspect of this, so Im so pumped!!!
Cortlin came to visit me on Monday. The timing maybe wasn't great with my classes but I think I did a decent job with getting my homework done ahead of time so we could hang out. Haven't seen him in like two months. Unacceptable, tsk tsk.
We're so bad at long distance lol.
But we went and saw the Avengers O_O it was pretty amazing. I want to see it again for sure sure.
Tuesday night we went out to the Knotted Thistle where I used to work.....oh right...I quit my job last week haha. They were tres gay so yeah. That's done. But we went so he could see it and get to know some of the people I go to school with. It was a pretty good time :) Drank 1/2 yard. Next time I'll try the whole yard.
Tonight a bunch of us from class have decided that we are going to go out for supper and then hit the bars for some good ol drinkin times.
I better charge the camera!!
Alright, I think that'a pretty decent post for now. Tomorrow I promise to write again!
P.S. Oh yeah, I'm gonna be an auntie FYI. kks is preggers. lulz
