Injections and Roller Coasters

This week we are down to single digit weeks that are left in this semester. 

• I gave my very first injection on a real person!!! I was so nervous. Not only about sticking the needle in, but then pushing in the plunger too! I did an intradermal injection of saline. This is the type of injection that you would get for a TB test. I was able to get the ''wheel'' under the epidermal layer. So I did good. The next time it shouldn't be so bad.
• I had 2 quizzes this week. Fundamentals, which I got an 85% on, so not bad but not good either. And Pharmacology I got an 87.5%. I need to step up the studying.
• I had my last Long Term Care clinical day! Thank God it's over! I also had an article presentation and I think I did pretty well. So I'm hoping I got an okay grade on that.
• I had a second presentation for Fundamentals. It was my group presentation. We did very well and got 95% on it. So I'm happy that's over.
• I took a day off yesterday and went to Six Flags with David, Cory, Kassandra, Matthew and Jimmy.  I rode a ton of coasters. It was awesome! Not to mention it's Fright Fest so it's all decked out for Halloween. One of the creepers got me and I jumped. I also screamed my head off on the coasters (more for fun cuz that's part of the thrills! My throat doesn't feel so good today.  The only coaster I legitimately was scared on was Vertical Velocity, when I was riding it toward the back of the coaster you go so high up backwards it feels like you're going up and over. It freaked me out a bit. The second time I went on I rode closer to the front and it wasn't as good cuz you don't get that scary thrill like you do when you ride to the back. I was impressed with myself cuz I had always been terrified of Raging Bull, or going up the first lift. So when I went on it the first time I actually didn't even freak out about it. So the second time was awesome! I love roller coasters!  It was a great way to get my mind off of everything for a day

Time to get back to school, and I now have 8 weeks completed! Only 9 weeks to go!!
