Birth, death and twilight

It has truly been a crazy week, Last weekend we spent some time in the hospital with Jess, Von and baby Samantha. We are both very taken by her and Justin spent most of sacrament pointing out all the babies that were not as cute as Samantha. He also likes her because she sleeps a lot and doesn’t cry.
But on a more somber note, last Tuesday while I was at the hospital I had my first death. I was very worried how I would respond to having one of my patients die but I feel that I did very well. Then on Thursday, the Chaplin from the hospital came to our class as a guest lecturer to speak about death and dying and asked me to discuss my experience with the whole class. This was much harder and made the day somewhat sad. Well Justin had a hard day at work too, so we decided to have a date night. We started out at the mall, window shopping for Christmas presents. Justin hates window shopping but was a good sport. We then went out to dinner and got appetizers, dinner and a dessert. I had to laugh at the menu because it said “Happiness starts with dessert.” So true. We then spent the next three hours wasting time until 12:15am when we went and saw Twilight. I enjoyed it greatly. We got to be around three, which wasn’t the smartest move, seeing as how I had a test the next morning, but it was very fun and I got an A on the test.
I am very excited to go to Reno, even though we haven’t even started to pack yet. But when we get back I only have two weeks of school left.

We have internet!!!

Now that we have Internet I can post some pictures

This is our new table

This is Miceala's pumpkin that we decorated, she did the nose and the mouth

And this is our new sewing machine

Not having the Internet has been somewhat of a challenge to me. I find myself parked out side of the school at late hours using their wireless connection. I have to have everything done in a fifteen minute intervals because that's how long my laptop battery last.

So the break down,
School is going well, I am very excited that there is less then one month left and very excited for next semester where we get to spend time in the ER, Labor and delivery, Mental health and pediatrics.

We are going to Reno for Thanksgiving and have no plans for Christmas yet, It was suppose to be spent with Justin's Family but they decided to cancel Christmas this year and I might just have to boycott their decision.

I got hit by a guy on a bicycle, and lets just say that it was very traumatic. I had no idea what to do, I was driving through the parking lot at Home Depot and out of nowhere a guy on a bike ran into the side of my car. I was going relatively fast for a parking lot and he skid down the side of my car, and of course I pull over, run out to make sure that I didn't run him over. Embarrassed, the kid (by kid I mean a 14-16 year old on a midget bike) got up, said he was fine and left. I freaked out, it was horrible to here the thud and then look behind you and see a kid rolling on the ground. So I spent the next two hours trying to find the police station to file a report in case the kid ended up needing to be hospitalized, so that I wouldn't be charged with a hit and run. AHH and my car has a nice dent in the side but I guess I would rather have a dent in my car then in my head, which this kid must have because he wasn't wearing a helmet.

So I have two days off this week and am suppose to be doing homework, so I will post again soon.
