A New Beginning for 2009

Okay, so I've been inspired by my sister to start my own blog... I don't know how much time I'll actually have for it, but I waste enough time doing other random things, why not do something that my friends and family can read and have some idea of what's going on in my life? I guess realizing that my sister is an hour away and I still rarely have any idea of what's going on in her life made me think that maybe it was a good idea... because if I can barely keep up with her, how can I expect to really keep up with all my friends and family that are all over the US? Exactly. That's what I thought too.
So here I am... trying to figure out how to set up my own blog and avoiding one of the two homework assignments I actually have to do while on my clinical... pathetic huh? I am also sick... I stayed home from my clinical yesterday because I had lost my voice entirely... when I called my CI (clinical instructor) to tell her I didn't think I should come in, I actually couldn't get my voice to work right away.. I was scared she was going to hang up on me! Anyways, for those of you who don't know I am currently on my first of 3 8 week clinicals that I am required to do over the next year. So far I love it. The clinic I'm in is kind of slow but my CI allows me a lot of independence which is very nice. I LOVE not being in the classroom and it is so nice to get my first real taste of what I'll be doing for the rest of whatever... so far I like what I see :)
