I'm so thankful to finally have a day off. I've worked the last nine days in a row and man I'm tuckered! I was supposed to have this last weekend off but my employer offered me time and a half (since it was overtime anyway) plus an extra $10 an hour. I couldn't pass up that opportunity, especially since I just bought my books for school and they were over $1000! Apparently its pretty much standard practice to buy all your books you'll be using for the whole 2 year program all at once....yikes! Anyway back to talking about my new job. I'm absolutely loving it! I love the fact that I just get to help people all day long. I've definitely encountered some interesting characters but its been fun.
Today was my first day of class. It wasn't all that exciting because it was just "do this" "don't do that" "be here on this day at this time""read this before you come to class" etc etc.....you know the basic first day stuff. However, I was relieved to find out I'll only be wearing my uniform (hunter green scrubs) two days a week instead of four or five like I had previously heard.
With the rapid transition from one job to another, my long list of to do's definitely didn't get done before school started. I was planning on getting some yard work and some organization of my house done before the whirl wind of school and a new job hit. I guess the yard work will have to wait until next summer and the organizing....maybe winter break.
