been awhile...

well it has been awhile since I have had the time to update. I didn't imagine that it would take quite this long for me to get back into the swing of things, but it has. This semester in school has really taken a toll, and it is supposed to be the easiest semester out of them all. I might disagree. Although the subject matter might be a little easier, we have had projects out of the wazoo to do which takes up a good amount of time.

Our Psych rotation came and went without an ordeal. I wish that we would have been able to have our clinicals at an acute Psych facility, but on the other hand, I am glad for the bit of experience that we did get. It was enough for me to know that is so not the field that I want to go into at all! Now we have started OB and Pediatrics. I have finished my Peds rotation, thank goodness. Another field that I know I do not want to go into. :) Not that there is anything wrong with kids, but it is just not my thing. I have had the opportunity to work a few more shifts up in the OB unit at work along with my clinical experience, and I do still really enjoy that. I don't know if that is what I want to do or if I want to stick with the hopes of being in the ICU. It will all depend upon what is open when I graduate. But I love, love newborn babies! In addition to the hospital clinicals this semester, we also have to do clinicals in the health department and in two schools. I dunno what I think of that yet as mine do not come up until November.

That's all I have right now for a little update. Nothing really significant or exciting has happened lately. Census has been down a bit at the hospital, as is expected, but I know things will pick up soon with the colder weather moving in.
