Maybe not.

Guess I sorta failed the Blog Me MAYbe thing. Then again, it does say "maybe" in the title. Which really just reminds me of Arrested Development.

I'm alive. I've been quiet online mostly because I've been busy this week doing my orientation for the Nurse Extern program. Guys, I have a badge and everything! I can badge in through pretty much any door in the massive hospital. And people don't give you odd looks when you're wandering around lost, because you're wearing scrubs and a badge, so you must know where you're going. Even when you don't, because the hospital is huge and twisty.

My first shifts are next Friday and Saturday, June 1 and 2. 0645 to 1915, back to back. That'll be a fun introduction, but honestly I'm stoked.

Today is our skills lab day, where we'll refresh on our clinical skills and learn hospital policy for things, plus no doubt run some codes and practice our BLS.

Happy Memorial Day weekend!

Enjoy the long weekend before the long days. I couldn't do it.

I wish they'd let us wear scrubs at work.

Hospital work in always exciting and different each day. It's also great money! lol

Woo hoo!! Nurse Summer! You are going to rock it out (of course, you already do!)
Man, those hours seem killer to me. I could never be a nurse for so many reasons
