off day

Today I woke up on the wrong side of the bed, literally.

It has been such an off day. I guess mostly a recovery from the past week. Viva las vegas! Haha, I have been there more than enough these past couple months, I think I need to let myself miss it again before I get excited about going there again! As far as the last trip went, it was for business but a couple of us turned it into a party. It was a good way to put aside our shift differences and get along for once!! The nursing symposium was just OK. We were the yougest nurses there and the topics were all about stuff we jus learned in nursing school, like a review for the old, dusty nurses..haha. So sadly we ditched more than half the classes there!

As soon as I got back I had two 12hr shifts in which I was so insanely busy it made me stop and think to myself "wow, did I really get my degree to be working this HARD?!!" I know I don't want to be doing this type of floor nursing forever. Yesterday, I changed like 3 diapers an hour and my back was cramped up. When I got home I showered, curled up in a fetal position, and thought to myself "damn." haha, if it weren't for the moments when you feel like you really made a difference in a patients life, I don't know where my motivation would be.

So that brings me to my monday, where I woke up at 12, ate, dressed in my gym clothes with the intention of going... But instead completely knock out!! What a day...I literally did NOTHING productive! I guess I needed it. It felt good to charge up again...it was very much needed!!!!

like rev run

I'm typing an entry on my phone like rev run... Except I am on the shitter, not a lovely bubbbly bath.

Anyways, I thought I'd start updating this thing a little more especialy since I don't really talk to anybody regularly nowadays. I thought dinner was cool yesterday, we should start doing those routinely again!

Its crazy that everyone is growing up. I am happy and excited for everyone making big decisions and strides in life :)

I forget how old we are sometimes, that were actuallly at that age where it's time to start settling down.. Or at least start thinking about it! But one day I laid in bed for a couple hours, & at that time I realized how different my life is compared to a lot of my friends. I know I've mentioned it to a couple of you guys.. But, I feel like I'm on such an entirely different page than everyone else. For starters, I'm pretty much the only one not in a longterm serious relationship. Never was. & to be quite honest, probably don't think I ever will be unless it be with the man I think I wanna marry..is that crazy?? I've developed this ridiculous, yet permanent adjusment to being single that anything else just feels weird to me. do I have problems? Hmmm, maybe. Haha

Which leads me to my next issue.. Does anyone have some benadryl???! ... Cuz I have been itching for change!! Haha. I don't if its that I've been getting bore with myself.. But lately I've been having this feeling knock on my door a couple times. I can't explain it, but I feel like I could have so much more potential if I moved out of San diego.. Not permanently, but maybe for something like...Grad school? At first it was just an innocent thought.. But I am taking it more and more into serious consideration. At first my sister said to to somewhere crazy like NYU but I am thinking more along SF, where they have pretty good nursing programs as is. They require 1yr BSN experience preferred, so if anything that would happen next year. & well, a lot of things can happen in a year.. So well see if I really get the balls to walk away from my comfort zone and just do it!!

Oh, life is fast. Scary. Short.... lets jus make the best of it!
