luckiest girl ever...confirmed

i got an email back from my preceptor today, which was very straight-forward and to the point. she only works in the mornings. another NP who will work with me as well works only in the afternoons. nobody works fridays.

let's party like crazy.

dog days of summer

hot like lava. as sweaty as an amphibian.

back to skool

today marks my first full day back in nursing school. oh man. notice the general displeasure on my face this morning as i walked in:


then i get to class and it's only the first day so i did a lot of this too:


currently learning about disaster preparedness:

i need this in my life

1. world's cutest mushroom bag


2. i was looking for guava nectar in CA since i really can't get it super cheap here and i made friends with a man working at the supermarket. when i asked about guava nectar he said, "listen. let me tell you some things....

"guava nectar is only 22% fruit! the rest is only high fructose corn syrup. did you know they banned that substance in europe? they banned it because your body doesn't need it. it makes you overweight. and do you know what that leads to?"

(i did but i didn't tell him cause i love having people share knowledge)

"it increases your risk of hypertension, diabetes, obesity, and cancer"

to which i replied, "oh my goodness! so should i not get the guava nectar? you've given me a lot to think about!" (all of which were true statements)

to which he replied, "get the guava nectar now. i told you this so you can start training your mind. you don't really want that guava nectar in your life. you just needed to know the facts"

TO CREATE IS TO DESTROY

this journal looks great. but instead of spending the $10 i'm just going to take keri smith's incredible quote and start destroying things. whose first?

i love how my momma loves me

check out the standing snuggle. i'm unsure we were aware a picture was being taken.

back in business

today marks the commencement of my final* fall semester (*of this career, thus far). so i'm back in the classroom, mindlessly surfing the web when the information presented to me isn't pertinent. i'm pretty pumped as i've got a que of posts that i just haven't gotten around to in my summer of recklessness and joy. wahooooooooooooooooooooooooo.
