Only a few more days till Valentines Day! I am real excited.  I have been frustrated about having to go to pennstate for Valentine's DAy, and hanging out with Josh and all his thousands of roommates, but I suppose it is better to see him and spend time with him then not at all! Or at least that is what I have been convincing myself of.

Yesterday I did observation hours at Harrisburg for the RT program and I was in the neonatal intensive care unit NICU, and it was so much fun.  It was definitely heart breaking there were 27 beds being used by babies that didn't even weigh 2.5 pounds.    but I really think that is the area of the hospital I want to work in. 

Today I was at Ephrata community hospital and I enjoyed myself there as well, but I think I would operate better in a larger hospital that was busy.  I observed in the Pediatric unit there and I loved it as well.  Children is definitely where i would like to concentrate once I get into a permanent job placement. 

My job is slowly becoming more easy.  Not really easier actually, but I handle all teh commotion going on alot easier than I did.  God has definitely been teaching me patience with this job. 

Well, I have a lot of work to get done, so I am going to go back to it, I hope all is well!

Well...it has been a few days since I have posted.  I dont have much time though.  I am leaving to go to my morning packed full of classes.  I have my first functional Human Anatomy test today.  I enjoy the class, adn really do like the professor, and I dont really say that about to many of my classes, but there is so much information, lil detail, that needs to be memorized and understood for the exams.   A lil overwhelming I might say. 

My first weekend on duty was not as easy as I was hoping.  There are always problems.  Sometimes you just have to tell yourself there is always someone that has a bigger problem then you.  And God doesn't give me anything that I can't handle. 

Welp, I will write more later.  I have to head off to breakfast.  Hope everyone is having a great week.  It is HUMP day!

Well, I just finished my first nite of weekend duty, for my first weekend on duty.  HAHA that was quite a sentence.  None the less, it was a pretty good evening.  A few minor situations I stressed out on a lil bit, but overall, it went pretty smooth. Crossing my fingers hoping I make it through till tomorrow morning without a call!

My day has been going since 8 this morning and I am completely beat.  I hate Friday's for that reason only.  Its the worst day to have such a busy day. 

I am so excited, even though I am on duty all weekend, the love is coming tomorrow to see me for a few hours and sit in the office on duty with me.  I CAN'T WAIT!!!

Welp, I am going to head off to bed.  I hope everyones weekend is fanatastic!

WOW it has certainly been a very long time since I have updated.  Unfortunately this one will be short but I will be sure to update as soon as I get a chance, further.  The past week has been busy.  The RA thing is a lot more work then I was expecting.  I enjoy the new friendships I have made, but God is really stretching me as far as patience, tollerance, and trying to be the best example in a dorm where God clearly doens't shine.   That's the part that has been the hardest I think for me. 

I attended the Landes Care Group twice.  This week I didn't go, I had so much work, life was just crazy, I suppose that would have been the best time to attend I guess! Sometimes I do things backwards. 

This weekend is my first weekend on duty and I am goign to be the only RA in the building.  NO one else is staying. Ahhhhhhhhhh! That makes me very very nervous.  I just hope it runs smoothly. 

My classes have proven to keep me busy.  My functionaly human anatomy class is just so much information.  And for some reason I am just not absorbing it very well.

And just to express some minor frustration about something, I ordered a freakin book online through someone else, and it still hasn't come yet, and it really has me angry.  My first exam will be here adn I wont even have a book. Let alone teh fact that I thought it was being ordered the day I wrote the check to come to find out not till the next day was it ordered.  GRRRRRR!

Ok, well, I am off to breakfast.  I hope everyone's semesters have started off with a bang, and have continued with ease.  Let me know how you are all doing

In Christ Alone
In Christ alone my hope is found
He is my light, my strength, my song
This Cornerstone, this solid ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm
What heights of love, what depths of peace
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease
My Comforter, my All in All
Here in the love of Christ I stand ...

There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain
Then bursting forth in glorious Day
Up from the grave He rose again
And as He stands in victory
Sin's curse has lost its grip on me
For I am His and He is mine
Bought with the precious blood of Christ
