Worth Being Tired for

SOOO tired today! But yesterday was worth being tired for. After my day of clinicals I came home and got all ready to go to Van Nuys. Some of my Best Friends, Adrian, was having a graduation party. Adrian and Ryan (another best friend) graduated from Cal State Northridge. We left our house around 2:30 and got there around 6:00 I was sooo hungry, Eric and I got some IN N OUT!! The party was a Hollywood theme so everyone was dressed up. It was soooo great to see all my friends. Its been so long since ive seen them. I always want to see them. It makes me sooo sad not being able to hang out with them all the time. They are all so great! I just feel at home when im with them. Its like we never stopped seeing eachother everyday. I didnt want to leave! lol But at 9:00 we left and got home around 11:00. I was SO freaking tired I passed out as soon as I hit the bed because ive been getting up at 5 every morning. When I woke up this morning my whole right side was killing me. Especially my stomach, it felt like a huge knot on that side. I guess once I fell asleep I didnt move a muscle! So the baby must have been laying on that side all night. Now im finally home and just relaxing on the couch! Gonna take a nap probably. But all in all I think it was worth it to be soo tired to hang out with my Adrian, Brent, Ryan, Scott, Victor, and Evan. Till later. Hope everyone has a great day!

The Week Begins. .

Unfortunately this weekend is over.. Why does it go so fast?! Saturday was nice. We got the house all cleaned up, hung out for a while and then Liem and Jason came down. We went to the Japanese Garden for a luau. We even had a whole pig! lol It was actually really fun even though it was freezing!! Eric had never been to one so it was cool. Sunday we woke up and went to a new church across the street from our apartment. It was pretty nice. We were a little late (because of Eric). The only wierd thing about the church was when we got there they walked us to seats instead of us just picking our own seats. It was nice going though, I always want to go but it seems like there is always something coming up and we arent able to go. After church we did some grocery shopping and I got some crocs for my nursing skills. They are actually really comfy so far, even though they are ugly! lol


Today was pretty easy for clinicals. Dawne and I were with an RNA so all we did is rehab therapy on some patients. Now im home makin some beans and hanging out. I need to do some studying for phlebotomy, gotta get the order of draw down. Nothing else too much is going on. Its a nice Bleh day for this rainy, cold weather.

First Day of Clinicals

Alrighty. So, im sorry i didnt get to write yesterday I got so busy running around with errands and then rushed straight to school. I didnt get home till 11:00pm and then I just went straight to bed. I woke up at 5:15am so that I could take a shower and get ready to go out on my clinicals. I was SO excited to start clinicals today! Unfortunately, I only ate cereal before I left this morning and before I was even at the facility for two hours I passed out. My instructor wanted to send my home...Which I was not about to have that! I need my hours! Plus I am stubborn so I just went to the car and ate a pop tart, then on a 15 min break I went out and ate some cheese its and a rice krispy treat. It was pretty interesting the first part of the day.. just getting everybody awake, feed them breakfast, change all their diapers, change their sheets, get them showered and dressed. We mostly watched today. Although I did feed some people and put make up on this one lady. Then brought them to the dining room. Then for lunch I had some yummy subway and went back to feed the residents their lunch. That was interesting to say the least. But overall it was a pretty good first day! Now I have to go get gas and go to school for an EKG study group... then ill be home for the day!! yay!! Wish me luck. lol


im tired.. lol

18 weeks Pregnant

So I am now 18 weeks pregnant. Technically its tomorrow but I feel like doing it today :) I can feel the baby moving a lot more now. Not too much else going on with me besides that. Oh except the fact that I dont look so good in my shirts really bugs! I need to get some stretchy new ones. So heres some pics on the growing belly. 






Blogging Again

Sorry I havent been writing lately. Time just slipped away from me. Ive been so busy with school and studying blogging just slipped my mind. Im going to try to start writing everyday again! I promise!

Lets see whats been going on lately. Hmmm. Pretty much I have been super busy with school. Today is my last day of doing actual work in class. We have our final and some lab time and then we are done with work in class!!! Finally! Tomorrow we are just having a potluck and wasting time, since our hours count we still have to stay there.. boo :( But Thursday I start my clinicals so ill be doin that from 630am to 230pm. Im looking forward to that because ill be able to be home with Eric in the evening. Which will be very nice! I dont know about the whole getting up at 530 part every morning.. but i guess ill make due, its only for a month. This baby better get ready!

Other than school not too much going on. This weekend was nice. Friday Eric and I spent the night at my Aunt and Uncles. We played the wii fit, fun! I also got to go to my cousins soccer games on Saturday. They both did a good job, it was fun watching them play. That night my MIL made chicken fried steak! Ive been wanting it forever!! I watched  her and helped out in the kitchen so now I can make it for myself! YAY! They got me a body pillow for mothers day and I LOVE it! It is sooo comfy! We went to church with them on Sunday morning. I really want Eric and I to start going, it always seems like something comes up though. We need to really stick to going. I think it will be really good for us.

Well. I guess thats all for today. I really need to study for my final tonight so I can keep that A!!

Ill be writing again tomorrow! Promise :)



Mothers Day 2009

..Days go by..

So, the days have seemed to fly by pretty quickly lately. Which is a good thing. I really do not have anything interesting going on in my life. Its the same old same old hanging out during the day and doing dishes and school at night. Speaking of school... I was really looking forward to this nursing class and I am very dissapointed. All my teacher does in class is read to us! Chapter after Chapter!! Then we have to do the review at the end of each chapter and then take a test for each chapter!! I feel like im loosing my mind in there! But at least once we get into the lab its not as horrible. Last night we got to actually practice some stuff. We had to practice placing patients in the bed in the sims positions, fowlers position, and lateral position. So that was entertaining as well as learning how to make the beds. Its so important that we learn every step and all the little details, like not letting your scubs touch the bed, making sure the bed has NO wrinkles. etc. because when we take the state board they are going to pick a task for us to do and if we do one little thing wrong.... we dont pass. There is about 12 tasks with 10 steps each.. so we need to memorize all of those. Therefore today I will be making notecards today will ALL the tasks on them. Also, I will be studying for the next test and vocabulary.. SO much fun... NOT .. haha.
I had my doctor appointment the other day. It was ok. Im not to sure about my doctor. He doesnt really listen to me, it just seems like he only cares about what he thinks.. but I have my next appointment is June 4th and ill be able to know what it is then! yay! So only a month and a week to wait. I hope it goes by pretty quick!

Have a great day everyone!

Pretty Casual Weekend




This weekend was pretty relaxing.

Friday I was not feeling well. I managed to get the whole house cleaned up. Our old friend Angela and her boyfriend came down to visit. We went to the beach to have a bonfire. It was freezing outside from all of the wind. Otherwise it would have been beautiful. Overall we had a good time. It was nice to see her its been about 3 years since the last time I saw her.

My Saturday flew by way too fast. I woke up late, around 1030, with  a headache as usual. I didnt have too long to relax before I had to head over to the Relay for Life event that I was volunteering at. My friends Debra, Stephanie and I were volunteering as part of our school. We thought it was going to be mostly stretching people out which is what we learned in our rehab class. It actually turned out to be more for the massage class. But, even though it was really what we knew how to do, we got to learn some techniques and get some hands on experience working on people. The weather was very nice. It wasnt very sunny but I guess I got a sunburn on my shoulders from the overcast. Once I got home Eric and I made a delicious steak dinner! We had Ralphs fresh bread, some ceaser salad, and STEAK!

Today we had to go to the commisary and get the grocery shopping done. Something we never want to do but something that always needs to get done. Our wireless router went out so we had to get a new one. The one we got wasnt working so we had to go back and exchange it for another one. Finally, we have working internet! yay! Of course all Eric does is play call of duty! Its so frustrating.... I despise the person who invented that game. I wish he was actually good enough to beat this game so I wouldnt have to listen to it anymore!

I wanted to get up and go to church this morning. We really need to start going. I told Eric yesterday we should get up and go. I dont know why, but we didnt.. We need to be more motivated to go. I guess I just dont really want to start going and get attached to this one when we are going to be moving soon. But I probably should go.

Also, Eric and I decided that we would love for Brittany and Isaiah to be our childs Godparents. We love you guys!

I need to go find something to make for dinner. Then its on to a whole new week!
