Currently: Holy crap, it's been so long!!! Truth is, I haven't been able to update because my laptop had a virus thingy for about a week. As a matter of fact, I tried to update last week and it shut down mid-sentence...needless to say, I was pissed.Haha. But oh, how I missed this blog so. SO much has happened since the last I updated. For one, I was deathly sick practically all last week, but was still able to get really good grades on TWO big exams AND complete my service learning assignments at the Nursing Home...I definitely gave myself three thumbs up for that. Also, all this week I was at a facility completing my Fieldwork level 1 rotations for Pediatrics. It was a really great experience. I am practically in love with those kids...even when they did throw temper tantrums.Haha One of the children in particular, a little boy with Mental Retardation/Nystagmus, really melted my heart. I swear, I almost wanted to take that little boy home with me. I really hope that his parents treat him well, otherwise i'm coming for their asses!Haha. Great week, nevertheless. Next week, i'm going on my rotation for Physical Disabilities at a Hand Center. I am really looking forward to it because, believe it or not, i'm actually pretty interested in maybe becoming a Hand Therapist someday. It should be a good way to introduce me to the field. Anyways, tonight i'm just going to let my hair down and have some fun! It has been a tough few weeks for me and I sucked it up, so I deserve it!Haha I am first going to pre-game at one of my friends' apartment. Afterwards, we are going to the karaoke Bar! I'm so excited!...but first, I need a shower...which I should be taking now, as my friend is coming to pick me up pretty soon...so, um, yea..Cheers!= )

Currently: My professional and personal life is not at as much of a stand still as it was when I last updated. For one, my Fieldwork coordinator was FINALLY able to get one of the facilities I was looking at to say 'yes' to letting me complete my rotation with them...and coincidentally, this facility happened to be the same school that my brother attended for many years. I guess he was my good luck charm, huh? My fieldwork coordinator is still trying to get a 'yes' from a physical disabilities facility, and even has enlisted the help of a fieldwork coordinator at a college close to where I live...so I hope this works out. If not, then I don't mind completing that rotation right here in town. Atleast I know that I could just spend the summer here but will still be able to go back home to complete my Fall rotation at the other facility...but anyways, enough with that. My friend Jenn and I were able to reconcile (well there was never really a 'fight' to begin with, so technically there's nothing to 'reconcile' over, but i'll just use that word anyway)last week and hung out practically the entire weekend. It was great getting to hang out with her again. She happens to be the one person at this school whom I could hang out with anytime and any place and still have fun. Friday night we went to the Bar and then to a club...that night, however did not end too spectacularly, as Jenn ran into some "issues" with another girl she's friends with. I didn't have a bad time though. And last night we first went to the karaoke Bar where we sang "Dreaming of you" by Selena. Afterwards, we went to the club and danced a little. The odd part about that portion of the night though, was when this random house wife-type lady comes up to me on the dancefloor, in awe, and asks if she could touch my breasts cause they were so beautiful. I was completely shocked at what I heard. I tried my best to hold my composure and not give her a complete "are you fucking kidding me?" look. When she asked me the first time, I replied "well, I don't know about that..." to which she then retorts "I am not a lesbian. I am married with two children." At that point, I just wanted to finish dancing the "Cupid Shuffle" and she was in my way, so then I reply "urrrr...okay?" and perk my breasts up for her and she touches them with this look of complete awe and admiration on her face...WOW! After she left me, Jenn, who saw everything, walked up to me and was like "what the hell was that?"...i'll never know. Anyways, after staying at the club for an hour and a half we went home. Next friday we are meeting up again for dinner at some Japanese joint...and she's also trying to get me to go skiing with her on Saturday...and...er...I don't know about that.Haha. I guess I shall wait and see. In the meanwhile, I am here at work really wishing (for once) that the time would go by quicker. I have about 23 minutes to go...arrrgggh! After I get out of here, i'm going to get dinner, then go right back to my apartment, where I will be doing a little bit of reading and studying for Pediatrics. And after that i'm off to bed! I have to be up early tommorrow for Gerontology lab at 8 am. I will then be going to the NICU for Pediatrics in the afternoon. All in all it'll be a busy day but not too bad.

Monday, Feb. 1, 2010

Currently: Wow, I can't believe we are already in February! Anyways, didn't do shit this weekend...mostly because some of my so-called friends weren't cooperating. But this weekend definitely showed me who my real friends are and I have dismissed quite a few people from my life. Some people are just a serious waste of time. Anyways, just got back from my Gerontology lecture class. I do not have Pediatrics lab today, so that gives me the entire day to study for my Physical Disabilities test which is on Thursday. In the meanwhile, i'm going to listen to a little bit of music and then step out to get some Chinese food. After that, you guessed it, I will be studying and studying and studying some more. I really wish I could just get my Masters degree already. As quickly as time is flying by, I feel like my personal life is just dragging and dragging. I guess I have to just continue being a patient little puppy. Oh, and...the other day I was talking to my mother and she was saying what a nice couple me and Jon would have made (she has seen his picture before). That really melted my cold black heart. Out of all the crushes I have had in the last 10 or so years, he's actually the one I would have made the nicest couple with. We completely match looks-wise, we're the same complexion, and although he is taller than me, he is not obnoxiously taller than me and it's a good balance. We definitely would have complemented each other. Oh well. And all of this emo remniscing right before Valentines Day. *sigh* By the way, is anyone going to see the movie "Valentines Day"? I sure as hell am not.
