Music Shows

Well, I have made it up through episode 12 of Glee season 1. Some of them I'd seen before, but a lot I hadn't. Still have 10 more to go. I'm pretty sure I've seen all of this season's so far. While it is a somewhat cheesy show, I still really like it!

Of course, I'm still into A.I., even after all this time. I started watching it when the show first started in 2002, and I still watch it every season. I also like the show The Sing-Off. I think I am just a sucker for singing shows because I really enjoy singing and music myself.

OG, JB, and Glee

I had a nice day yesterday
with my girlies. We ate lunch at Olive Garden and went to see the director's fan cut version of the Never Say Never movie. We had already seen the original version, but this had extra footage, so we had to see it again. ;)

Today, I helped my younger daughter spend her gift card to Justice that she got for her birthday. She got herself a J.B. t-shirt amongst other things.

Now, I'm just chillin' for the rest of the day. I'm going to have myself a Glee marathon! I started watching the show this season (season 2), and have seen a few of last season's episodes, but I want to watch them all! :)

Long day!

Man, today seemed to just drag. I had 3 patients today, so I kept pretty busy. I'd hate to know how long the day would have seemed if I'd had a bunch of down time!

After clinical, I hit the grocery store for a few things, came home and got a shower, then made and ate dinner. Now, I'm pretty much ready to crash, but I still have to go put away left overs, load the dishwasher, sweep and mop the kitchen, and make the kids' lunches for tomorrow. Gah!

Almost done

I did not have class today because, this week and next, our groups will be doing our teaching projects we've been working on all term. My group will go teach next week, but today, we got together to try to finish up our project. Pretty much all we have left to do is our individual papers that go along with the project and we need to do a "rehearsal" of sorts so that it isn't awkward once we get there. :) Can't wait to get this out of the way!

And I wonder if I ever cross your mind. For me it happens all the tiiiiime!

Can't get this song out of my head. Thanks, Lady Antebellum...

Picture perfect memories scattered all around the floor
Reaching for the phone 'cause I can't fight it anymore
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind
For me it happens all the time

It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now
Said I wouldn't call but I lost all control and I need you now
And I don't know how I can do without, I just need you now

Another shot of whiskey can't stop looking at the door
Wishing you'd come sweeping in the way you did before
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind
For me it happens all the time

It's a quarter after one I'm a little drunk and I need you now
Said I wouldn't call but I lost all control and I need you now
And I don't know how I can do without I just need you now

Guess I'd rather hurt than feel nothing at all

It's a quarter after one I'm all alone and I need you now
And I said I wouldn't call but I'm a little drunk and I need you now
And I don't know how I can do without I just need you now
I just need you now

Oh baby I need you now

TGIF

I am so glad this week is over! I made it through mid-terms!

Now, I need to go pick up a few things for my daughter's slumber party tonight, do a little last minute cleaning, and ice her cake.

We will be going ice skating for a couple of hours this evening as part of her party. I have yet to decide if I want to even attempt to skate with the girls. It has been yeeears since I last ice skated, and I will inevitably fall on my arse if I do! We'll see how it goes.

Hmmph!

I really hate the headache that results from crying! :(

Ugh, I'm just being all kinds of whiny lately!

I is dumm!

This week has been pretty stressful with school. I've spent may hours working on papers and studying for tests. My biggest complaint is that I can't seem to figure out how to study for this med/surg class. It seems that no matter how much I study, read the chapters forward and backward, I still don't know the information he asks for on the tests! I know a lot of other people in my class feel the same way. So at least I know it's not just me having issues.

I go through the chapters, and I think I know the material, but when the test is in front of me, It seems as though I'd not even opened the book! I don't understand it! God, I wish I was smarter! I wish this wasn't so difficult for me! For some reason, this is the hardest class for me, by far, in the whole nursing course. Before, if anything, I may have been striving to end up with an A or B in the class. This class, though, I am honestly just hoping I can pass! I need at least a 78% to do so!

I'm kind of having a little mini break down right now. I need to pull it together!

Boo hoo! Self Pity Party Time!

So, I have spent the past 3 hours looking up the required information I need to write one of the two papers I have to write for missing a clinical. I am not even done gathering all the information for this one paper yet! I still have quite a bit to look up, then I need to put it into the form of a research paper in APA format, then I need to do a care plan on the disease. After that, I have to do all of this again for another disease! Uggh!

Seriously, it's like I'm being punished for being sick! Ridiculous. I think that a make-up clinical day at the end of the term would have been sufficient! Instead, they use the make-up clinicals for the people who missed more than the one we are supposedly "allowed" to miss. Personally, I think that is bass ackwards. I think they should do the make-up day for people who miss one, and if they miss two, then they write a paper (and not 2 papers!). But I'm not the one that makes that decision, so my opinion really doesn't matter.

I still have a long freaking chapter to read to study for my test on Thursday, and I will be in clinical all day tomorrow! :( Procrastination rarely pays off (except of course in situations like having your assignment changed on you after having already started...)!

I CANNOT WAIT to be done with school!!!!!!

***UPDATE***
Clinicals actually got canceled for tomorrow! (Well, postponed I guess I should say since we have to make it up at the end of the quarter.) Sweet!! At least that gives me more time to work on these papers and study! Now hopefully my power won't go out...
