Warning: Long post..

I just realized that I left my site a lone for quite sometime. I decided that it was time for a change. I am really happy with the outcome of this layout. It’s so purply-blue. I LOVE IT!

Anyways, I’ve been pretty busy juggling school, work, boyfriend, family, friends, and other things that has to do with my normal life. I’ve been going on Facebook, Myspace, checking email, banking statements, and paying bills when I get on my laptop. Then I don’t pay attention to my site.

So lets start with my love life (since people always end up asking me that question after asking how am I doing). Mine and my boyfriend’s life are pretty busy with commitments. He is busier than I am though, which really leaves no time for us. In a relationship spending time is bonding time: where we get to know each other more, we are focused on each, we grow closer emotionally. That’s what I want. Sometimes I believe that I want it more than he does because it affects me more. I still love him none the less. I just don’t want to have to wait once every 2 weeks, 3 weeks that I get to have him just for my self. I want to be a little selfish sometimes and not have to share him. I’ll try to calm down, get in my normal state, and not our situation affect me so much.

Besides being a little bummed, I’m also upset at the fact that I don’t have a car anymore because I got into an accident on Monday, February 16. My insurance company tells me that my car is a “total loss” meaning that the damages are more than my car’s value (about $6,000 according to the Blue Book). The value of my car is pretty low because it is a 97 Toyota Rav 4. The lady was so STUPID because she made the most illegal U-Turn I’ve seen, from the far right lane(3 lane street). She just had to do it right in front of me! The best part is that she fled from the scene (she came back because my witness followed her)! People these days, I don’t understand.

Anyways, subject change… I’m doing good in my nursing program. Teachers don’t bother me. I do well in class and in clinical. I believe for right now, the hardest thing is learning medications since there is so DAMN MUCH of them. The thing I could remember are the: generic and brand name, classification, uses, and some of the patient teaching depending on the classification. The dosages and the side effects is hard to remember. It just doesn’t click. But I realized that It’s not a total fail (it could be because of the Board Exam, which does focuses on mediations) to not remember everything because when I’m a nurse, I’ll start handling the medications, giving it to patients, monitoring them for side effects and what not. That’s when I’ll start to remember what medications are used for because I could associate my patient’s diagnose to the medication.

Because my program is only part-time. It leaves me some time to dedicate for work. I really miss working at my old job, but work is going kind of slow that there’s really nothing for me to do there. However, I do work with another company but I only work like once a week and a few hours here and there from home. I’m trying to find more work, but it’s difficult to find work that will be flexible with my schedule. I’ve applied for companies and people looking to hire, but they don’t respond back. But once my family business starts moving forward then I wouldn’t have a problem. Hopefully things will turn around soon. I think I stress out more about work than school.

I shouldn’t be writing this post right now. I should be at my clinical, but I’m sort of sick. The weather is killing me. I’ve only been to school once this week. Tuesday I didn’t go but I was excused since only 3 people showed up for clinical because others were traveling from LA (about 45 min away) and there was a major accident on the freeway. Today would be my first absent since I started last year in October. So for today I’ll clean the house up a bit, review medications, possibly update the Works section of the site, and be with my boyfriend later which I look forward to for later.
