Little update

So, I supposed you need an update. Classes are good, but very busy. My pharmacology class is a joke. We don't even get "taught" anything. We have a week to start an at home online quiz that is open book, and we have 6 hours to complete 50 questions. The only thing we do in class is go over the quiz, and that's it. Pretty much a selfer. Kinda weird for something as important as learning drugs. I had my first clinical today. It went very well! It's so amazing how much working at the hospital has made. I am so much more comfortable and confident in my ability. I'm used to this medsurg stuff, so I think the whole semester will go well. We had to take a med test after that and get above a 90% to be able to administer drugs, and I passed, so yay me. It was a calculation test for IV drip rates and stuff.
This poor woman I had today had to have all of her teeth extracted (which happened to only be a mere 15)...I know you're sitting there counting your teeth right now. Don't try to act like you're not.
Well, I am beat. I had to work 7:00am-7:00pm yesterday, then I had to go to the 8th floor to preplan for clinicals, then I had to come home and look up a bunch of meds and do a bunch of paperwork to prepare for today. It was a very bad day....not to mention I got stuck by myself with 15 patients. I think I'm going to have to have a talk to my manager about that.
Anywho...I'm going back to bed.
