Got it fixed!

Ok, for some reason, this link does not appear to be working, and I can't access my blog. So, I will catch up on what little I have to right here.

"Ryan's the athlete, and Kyle just wants to hug the coach..." Hehehehe.

So, I am back in Ch'town. Seems to be the place where I end up writing most of these things. I just got out of my progress review, and I am quite pleased about where I am at in the course. I am still hoping to finish up in June so *cross your fingers* for me. Now, in addition to the 2 days a week at the Medical Center, I am hoping to add another half day at the PCH, volunteering with RIM. That's Recorded Information Management, and it involves converting all the old paper files into computer data, or something like that. Besides that, I still have a ton of work that needs to be done to finish this course. I can't wait to be finished studying. I have been in this school system for way too long :P

I went to bed last night with such a stuffy head, and a full blown sore throat this morning :( Blah. I'll have to run down and pick something up for it later this morning. I hate colds. This weekend is going to be devoted to sleep, if it at all works out the way I want it to. TGIF :P Lol, sounds kinda funny, since this week has been fairly short, and unproductive compared to some of the others. I worked in Summerside Monday and Wednesday, and came to Chtown Tuesday. Studied at home on Thursday. And that brings me to right now. 9:30 Friday morning. I wish it was 4 :P Misty is going to come down a little later, over lunch I think, so we can see each others pictures from last week. I totally want to go back...

Day 1

SO, yesterday was my first day at the Summerside Medical Center. People were really great, but I'm not 100% sure this is what I was meant to be doing. Day started with a tour of all the offices, then learned the filing system, made a few new files, observed an electrocardiogram, and then 2, then helped with #3.... by the last one, number 6, I was "almost" able to do it myself. Makes me nervous, though. I want to just sit in an office, and take appointments :P Got a patient ready for the dr. Two actually. This involved taking blood pressure, getting height and weight measurements, and testing a urine sample. Only one of the doctors was in yesterday. Both doctors should be in tomorrow. So, I will be in this office for the next 6 weeks... well, for two days each week for six weeks... should be interesting.

Feels strange to be back in Charlottetown. I am so exhausted. I even went to bed at like 9:30 last night, and I still can barely keep my eyes open. Did a timing this morning 51 and 4. And I was concerned that I would forget how to type, not being able to do so for over a week :P We had a computers meeting this morning at nine and now, both our med sec meeting and prof session this afternoon have been cancelled. Pity :P I will have the afternoon now to get caught up on some of the stuff I missed last week... That means at least 2, if not 3 tests, after lunch... OOOh, and I have to find out if I can write the word processing modules in slemon park. I don't think that I am coming to Charlottetown on Friday if I don't absolutely have to. It would be so nice to sleep in till 8:30 :P and then just do the comp testing at home. Sigh.

I miss the sun. Eventually I will post my day-to-day journal with pics from the Dominican. I am workin on it :P

h-a-p-p-y

Ok, so I feel that lately I have been in a slightly depressing mood when I post on here... t'is time to share not only the grumpy venting moments, but also the happy, smiley ones :P

Tomorrow, I am leaving PEI for the sun and the sand in the Dominican! I am absolutely thrilled at the prospect. Still not 100% sure on how we are getting to the Halifax airport, but I have faith that we WILL get there :)

My OJT starts on February 21, the Monday after I get back. I will be working in the Summerside Medical Center on Mondays and Wednesdays, until May 18, with the Internal medicine doctors. Even though I have nervous butterflies, I am totally looking forward to the experience.

grr

I am in such a horribly bad mood this morning. Do not want to be in Charlottetown and better yet, do not want to do ONE of the things on my MUST DO list today. Argh. I had planned to do:

1. a wordperfect test and production
2. 2 english spelling tests
3. 1 pharmacology test
4. typing official

However, I instead feel like crawling under a rock and doing nothing the entire day. It could still happen. I can't wait until Thursday, I need to get off this Island. Right now, if not sooner.

Semi-productive

Ok, so at least I got one of four things done today. I did the computer tests, etc, this morning. So there. I wasn't completely unproductive. However, thus ends the productivity. I am leaving here in about and hours time. I'm not going to get ANYTHING done here, I can feel it. Bah freakin humbug.

Back in Charlottetown. There is no one else here yet. I hate being here so early. Aw well, at least it is quiet enough to do a timing. Sigh. So, I am officially and utterly broke. I went to the clinic Monday to get some $50 malaria pills and ended up with a $100 hepatitis shot. :'( I hate needles. So now I am $50 poorer than I had anticipated, and it sucks majorly. Plus, I applied for a semester at sea, and found out yesterday that I am not eligible because I already finished my first degree. However, if I go on to grad school... or law school... Sigh. I was totally excited to go on that. I am so tired this morning, and I can't figure out quite why. I shouldn't be at all. I spent the day at home studying yesterday. Fun stuff. Sad when I get more work done at home than at school. Only one more week till I leave for the Dominican!! I can't wait. We are gonna have such a great time! Sun and the Beach. What more could a girl ask for?! And then, in June, I am going to go with Misty and April on a road trip, yay!, to Ontario and Quebec. My OJT starts extremely much soon. I am getting kind of worked up about it. Kinda scared that I won't be able to do it. Anyways, I guess that I am going to try and get some work done. Try being the operative word.
