No longer a teenager
Today, I am officially twenty years old. Wow how time flies.

Bake a Cake!
I baked a cake tonight! It was from a mix, but still that's something new for me.
Also I got an iced cap tonight from Tim Hortons. Mmm I love them.
For the last couple of days I've been feeling a bit ill, but ooh well.
Tomorrow night I get to have some beer. Beer is awesome. Too bad it's just the cheap stuff, I don't think my bell ringing friend Lynn would approve.

Still not an aunt!
My sister-in-law has gone past her due date! Maybe she will have the baby in a couple of days, which would make it my birthday! That would be cool.
Placement has been going smoothly. Today my instructor gave me the main seat, and I got to answer the phones, process orders in the computer, on the MARS, and on the Kardex. It was pretty fun. It went really quickly because people were calling all of the time, patients were being discharged, and there was plenty of folding of papers to do. As well I had to stuff the charts [meaning stamp the papers with the patient's ID card, and then put it into their charts]. It was awesome.
So now I'm at home drinking some diet pepsi. Woohoo. Caffeine! I love it.

This is the 3rd day of my placement. I'm just sitting here hoping to wake up so I can be alert and ready. Like that will ever happen at this time in the morning. Getting up at 5:30am really sucks, at least for me. Some people can do it easily but when you're a night owl like myself it becomes pretty lame. Staying up past midnight is how my brain clock likes to work! 5.5 hours of sleep doesn't go over well, at least not for more than one night. If I am learning new things everyday I'd like to be awake and aware. These are things I'll need to remember to get my own hospital career!
That will be exciting. Making more than minimum wage. Not being treated like a child. Mom will lay off of me. It will be a nice time overall. Eventually I will be able to move out with my long time lover, Devin
. Hopefully he can figure out what he would be able to stand doing for the rest of his life so he can get a move on for college.
It is 6:10am but the sun hasn't even shown a tiny bit of itself yet. That sucks man! That means the snow will be coming soon. Boo to snow! We don't need it to come and then stick around for 5 months. It's too cold, heavy, and slippery. Driving in the snow is such a pain, I wish I could afford winter tires. This will be another interesting winter. I will be extra careful as to not end up in an ambulance and then have to go to the ER.
That's all I have to say right now.
Peace and Love!

Happy Birthday To my Dad
Today is my dad's birthday! Yey for him. I got him his favourite type of coffee cream "Bailey's" and it came with two cool Bailey's glasses. I also got him his favourite chocolate, Reese's Pieces peanut butter cups. They're so good.
My mom got my dad a new recliner. It's pretty sweet.
I had today and yesterday off to do nothing. It was pretty nice sleeping in again. Tomorrow-Sunday I have to go to the hospital 7am-3pm. I like being at the hospital. Time goes by pretty steadily and the lady that is teaching me is really nice. There is a maximum of 14 patient charts that I'd have to deal with. That is not that many.
When I am done I hope to get a job pretty quickly. That would be awesome.
Last night Devin and I went on a walk. It was nice. Then I got to sleep over at his house because I got there before his mom's boyfriend could come over and take up the whole driveway. Yey!
Peace and Love everyone!
