February 25



Shopping by myself.
What a great night!
(And no, that pink bag doesn't have what you think it has!! :P)

February 24



Went to dinner with my sister and she hates getting her picture taken! So after a battle of flashes, this is the best I could get. 

It was a pretty fun night.
And food is always good.

What I love about my job is that I get paid for education.  I went to a meeting about organ donation and I'm a firm believer in organ donation, but this class made me more aware of it.  

I feel like one day I'll be able to start making a difference and be able to reach out to the community more.  But right now I feel inadequate and I don't think I'm in a place in my life to make a huge difference.  I need more time and education to get myself into that role.  It's classes like these that help me prepare and look forward to it.

(That's probably not a good excuse, but I have 30 years of work ahead of me and a lot of things to learn and accomplish.. no rush right??)

February 21-22

I worked these two days.
Again, too tired for pictures.
But it's been bittersweet. 
Bitter because these are the last two days of my orientation. 
Sweet because it's been great and now I'll be taking on my own patient load.
Or maybe the whole being-on-my-own thing will be bitter... can't decide yet!

I have put off this project for a long time and now I'm starting to get into it again.  I love seeing a picture start to form before my eyes.  

(It'll be a picture of an angel one of these days.) 

February 19


I finally got some new checks.
And they're girlie!! My favorite kind.

February 17


Had some time to do some scrub shopping...
Yea... I know, I buy waaaaaay too many scrubs. 
(Ignore the mess... I'm working on it :P)

February 15, 16, 18

I worked these 3 days. 
I'm exhausted when I get home from work and being able to fall asleep right away is a blessing!
Unfortunately, I don't have the energy to take a picture of any of it.
Too bad for you, huh??
I'm sure you wanted to see all of those glorious pictures of me sleeping!!!
Don't lie.
:P

February 14



Reading a really good, uplifting book makes me happy.
Starbursts are pure bliss.
And the fact that I'm actually ok with being alone on Valentine's Day and not hating on it makes me feel extremely happy.
hahaha!
Weird isn't it??

February 13



I forget how much I love Sundays until I had to miss a few of them. 
I appreciate them that much more.

February 12



Decided to try something new today and go to the Pottery Shop. 
You pick out what you want to paint, they fire it, and you pick it up later.
I really like these people :) 
Hopefully they had as much fun as I did.

February 11



I come here all the time and I have so many happy memories here with good friends.
Plus, it's so nice to see a movie that makes you laugh the entire time!

February 10



I love coming home from a long work day and my room is nice and warm.
Ok that was lame, but it still makes me happy.

February 9



Mismatched socks = comfy day.
I love only working three days a week!!

February 8



I decided to work out on my days off. 
But I guess eating brownies doesn't help even though it makes me so much happier than working out!

February 1-7

I've been avoiding updating this blog for the last few weeks.  I've missed a lot of pictures and almost felt like giving up on it.  I've just had a rough couple of weeks.  Work seems like the only good thing I have going for me right now, but I only work three days a week and sometimes that doesn't seem like enough to escape. 

Don't get me wrong, I love working only three days a week, but that can cause problems at times...
Also, postgrad life can be a little bit not so fun afterall.
Oy.

Well, I've been thinking and I have a lot to work on.
I can only depend on myself for my happiness.  
I need to move forward and not let the little things get to me.
I need to learn to be ok with myself again.
I need to be more giving without expecting anything in return.
I need to be brave.

January 29-31



I had to work these three days.
Of course I got a cold and it was in my chest.
It was the kind that made me cough constantly.
Yet I felt just fine, just needed to have lots and lots of medicine to keep myself under control so my patients didn't think I was one of them.
Oy.

I'm just happy that I was able to function and get through these work days.


January 28



Mornings like these remind me to slow down a little and realize where I'm at in life and that makes me happy.

This face always makes me laugh.
Especially because she looks so homeless no matter how much we try to fix her hair.

January 26



Woot woot!! New phone, new phone!
Happy day for sure.

January 25



This is an angel pin my friend gave me for Christmas.  It makes my badge look really pretty and reminds me that I need to be nice when I'm at work, especially when I don't feel like it.

January 24



So much fun! We decorated cakes for FHE.
My friend did the lettering.
The cake doesn't say "No" it supposed to be the Yankee logo.  But it does kind of look like a "no."

No picture today.
