Can I make it?

I've had to slow my roll. I haven't been able to blog as much since school started, and everyday I think to myself, "I need to post something," but then the day gets away from me. This semester we jumped right into time at the hospital - no easing in...no reorienting....no rest. On top of the brutal days at the hospital we have patient worksheets due on Thursday, which are essentially the bane of my existence. They take FOREVER to do, and 3 of them are 75% of our grade for that course. Our clinical instructor is AMAZING and we all love her!! The patients I've worked with have also been awesome, and I'm learning a lot!! I have also been "working" at my new contract job which is still completely foreign to me, and most days I'm completely lost, but oddly I like that feeling. I love figuring things out, and once that happens I'm usually bored and done. I don't particularly enjoy mastering thing as much as I like simply figuring them out enough to get by.


soooo let's recap what's happened since I've been gone:

May 14 was Justin's birthday (as you read in a previous post) and that weekend my mom came down to celebrate her birthday, his birthday, and a be-lated mother's day. We went out to eat, went shopping and went to see Star Trek. Justin didnt want to go, but went more because my mom LOVES Star trek and always has. The movie was great!!! Even Justin enjoyed it!!! It had the right mix of love, adventure, comedy and drama (well as much as a Sci-Fi space movie can have). It was so crazy to see how much the "new" star trek cast looked like the "old" star trek cast (I'm not a trekkie but I have watched star trek in my days!!!)



This past weekend we attended Justin's parents "Tiki party" and had a grand time.
We ate, visited, gossiped, ate, and played badminton. We attempted to get Justin's parents to even slightly like rap, however we were unsuccessful. Where is the Gangsta love??? I love when summer is first peeking through because it's warm but still cool - it's perfection. It makes me want to be outside around 5 or 6 and just do stuff.....run, jump, garden, walk, even pull weeds!!
This weekend Justin takes his licensure exam, which I'm sure he is stoked for!! We are planning our "summer plans" even though we don't really have our summer free per se. We made our 4th of July travel plans several weeks ago (for once in our lives we are planning ahead) and are really looking forward going out of town soon.

I think that is about it, however I am relatively fried at this point.

School, I love to hate you.
