let your love fly like a bird on the wing
and let your love bind you to all living things
and let your love shine and you'll know what i mean,
that's the reason...
So i'm feelin much better today.. can you tell? if you'd have talked to me yesterday you definitely would have noticed a change. i have recovered. i still have just as much to do this weekend and tomorrow.. but by faith.. i will complete all i need. also, great ppl have made these things better. i've talked a bit.. gasp.. and peeps seem to be in similar boats. yesterday i was flippin out.. one thing would get resolved/completed and i'd realize i had another more difficult one to do. how much can i take? apparently alot b/c i'm still alive.
so i have some great people in my life. did i ever tell you? i really do. amazing, they are. i was driving to sectionals today and got a phone call that someone was watching me.. hehe, her dorm faces the road i was coming in on. she did not know how much i needed the comfort that someone was out there and new that i was once again making the trek to school.. sounds ridiculous.. but its true, i really really needed it. so i'm encouraging ppl to call each other. just to say hey, i'm watching you. (not in a stalker way though). also, i'm thankful for hannah. she's getting it, finally. he's bad news and not dating material... finally... she was very close to saying i was right the other day.. not that she had to tell me, i already know.. she kept saying, "oh jac-lyn... ooooh... i can't believe him" yea. not gonna say, told ya so. but w/e.
had clinical today.. completely physically and mentally handicappped. 3/3 in physical handicapp, 2/3 in mental handicapp... though they are great patients to practice talking to (because it doesn't matter how much you sound like a fool or stumble over your words) they are terrible to practice teaching/educating, getting to cooperate.. plus they are SO much more work. some of the other girls' patients went out to smoke for a couple hours.... i have no such luck (the past 3 weeks!!!) gr... i hate med/surg nursing... i will not work places with longterm care.. i think i need very high turnover and very little ongoing care situations. my back will break in a month on a med/surg floor. i seriously changed my patients entire bed and clothes 5 times today b/c he was completely incontinent. and i totally know he can't help it.. but why would you choose to work in that situation... i don't think they could pay me enough (and right now i have to pay them to be there!) whew.. so something semi-related.. facebook has an IWU group called, "nursing stole my innocence" or something like that.. hehe, i love it, i haven't joined it yet but i may. they talk about all the things we learn and how gruesome our textbooks are and how we like to use them to gross each other out and how desensitizing it all is... they are soooo right. i totally straight-cathed this guy today and only felt awkward for about 2 seconds.. also put briefs on him 5 times with another girl helping like it was totally natural to clean up men all the time.. not my favorite past time.. but certainly not something i'm scared to do. the girls in my clinical group are hilarious... my instructor and i were trying to cath this guy cause they needed a urine sample and we had no way to catch anything since he was wearing a brief.. so she talked me through the whole thing but we couldn't get any return.. so we called the charge nurse to come and make sure we were doing it right.. and i look into the hall and all the girls in my group are peeking through the door (6 of them) all stacked up giving me thumbs up.. they were cheering b/c we hardly get to do anything interesting like that. it was great! i even remembered how sterile glove. so not everthing is bad. there are good things in the world...
something else. so sara is great to put up w/ me. i was major stressed yesterday and she had nothing but encouragement that i needed... also i'm very jealous of her bible brain.. ok not jealous except in the case that i wish i could borrow for OT everytime we have a test.. not sure how that went.. but there are way too many similar names in the OT. wow. yeah. sara's great to me, i don't deserve her friendship.
bleh. yes, did you know i love 70's music. i burned some of my Dad's CDS to my pc.. and i love these oldies~ the lyrics at the beginning of this mess=pure 70's stuff.. awesome..
so now maybe i shall hit the sack. i been up since... 5am and i'm getting up early tomorrow too... to study.
