Back to school

Wow, my undergraduate coordinator wasn't kidding when she said we start the semester at a running pace.  I'm enjoying this first (easy) week and long weekend before the storm begins!  Pharmacology, pathophysiology, Adult 1, and Maternal/child care nursing plus the corresponding clinicals. It seems like there's exams almost every week! Don't forget the hundreds of pages of reading.

Lord, give me strength to survive this semester with passing (but hopefully good) grades.  Time management is going to be a challenge, as it always is. Well, hospital orientation and drug calculations exam tomorrow, then computer orientation at the hospital friday.

I'm excited for this semester, though, since I find patho and pharm really interesting.  All of the instructors seem good-- especially the patho and pharm ones.

After a month long break, I'm still in transition from vacation to school mode.  Going out West for 2 weeks was a lot of fun.  The scenery was beautiful-- Grand Canyon, the Rockies, etc.

Orientation @ 0800!
Good night

P.S. I learned a cool thing in pharm today... if you take grapefruit juice with your morning coffee, you'll get more caffeine in your bloodstream (might be using that trick this semester, hehe.) When you're on certain medications, you can't drink grapefruit juice.
