clinicals
Life has been ok. What can i say? Not so good but with time i've learnt projecting does jerk for me and am so keeping that lesson. School is same old. Yesterday was last day of lab class. No more class, yaay! Next Wednesday i start going to hospital. I'm totally excited about it. For my lab evaluation i did 3 procedures, Trach suction , Trach change and administering an IM injection. I did great in those 3. I would have loved to try the IV procedure and NG-tube because i don't feel confident with those yet. I also had to write up a case study for a diabetic pt w/an ulcer on her R leg. The paper had to include nsg interventions, nsg evaluations and rationales and nanda dx. That was intensive. I also had to write up a sample charting. I need to buy the NANDA book pretty soon.
I've not worked in such a long time. Honestly i can't even for the life of me remember the last time i worked. How have i been surviving? One of my best friends sent me a check, which cleared my over-drafted a/c. My moms also sent me some money which paid off my cellphone bill. My a/c is over-drafted once again. It's my way of living right now. I deposit a check, wait for it to cash and clear overdraft and then over-draft STAT again. Right now i need to work so bad. Food-wise, i have a 38-pack box of noodles and Y sent me a package some weeks ago and my angel L also gave me a package so in regards to that sailing hasn't been as bad.
I'm excited because for my med surg class which starts October no saturday classes instead we'll have 10, 5hr lecture sessions which is woohoo for me b/c then i can work, God help me. I need hours so bad. I called them up said i'd be available this weekend so i pray God favors me.
I'm still waiting for my clinical uniform to come in the mail. As you know my white tennis shoes have been around since forever.
The bus/trolley schedules were changed b/c of lower ridership in my county. That totally sucks and some. I gotta wake up early and walk to the trolley or wake up later than i used to, get to work later than i used to and work till late then most probably end up walking home. I think I should move. I'm thinking of moving the only thing is my landlady right now is easy with my rent, i mean not like i don't pay it on time but it's overly fair. Cheap but comes w/ so disadv's. Cheap is expensive sometimes. I don't think i'll move out. I think i will in light of my strengths and in spite of my weaknesses, practise my driving, go to DMV and do my written and behind the wheel exam, i really need God's grace, i have it i know i just have to keep reminding myself.
My lecture final is on the 09/23. I should be reading my ATI Fundamentals book. B/c she hinted that's where she'd test from so hopefully i'm on the right track. When i think of reading the PP book i feel overwhelemed coz the chapters are super long. Plus cammon we've had 2 exams already and both of them have been in 'tagalog' like hello? where was this in the book. Anyhow am not complaining i'll give it my best shot and I trust God I'll excel.
Go me!
