  • The Day I had dinner with the girls

    Been eating wayy too many sweets.

     

    Approve!

     

    What a very physically and psychologically overwhelming day. I decided to pick up another extra shift in the clinic today even though it's a Saturday. My first patient happened to be an RMT for a little over 10 years; he was requesting for a very specific work. I was quite comfortable, if only a tad intimidated. The problem is, I think he was either not trained the way we are, or its just been a while and he'd forgotten how it is like to know virtually next to nothing. Fine, I know things but with so many to learn I just shove most of them somewhere else to make space for new information. 

    I think it was that I wasn't comfortable enough with my own skills, he was polite and very instructional the whole time; he even got off the table and thought me certain techniques. *sighs* bummed

    Due to the nature of the treatment, I basically had a very sore back  and being doused in my own sweat. I had to stay behind for a few hours to recuperate before I found the energy to head to work to return the lab coat I'd borrowed for halloween. Of all the days, it's luckily that I chose today to drop by. FREE FOOD from work, just in time too because I was starved! 

     

    I'd originally planned on donating blood after practicum today before my birthday in two weeks, in which I had planned on getting some sort of body modification rendering me unable to donate for the next six months or so. The problem is, I was informed that since I had just donated, I have to wait until the 19th, my birthday is on the 18th! Oh well! 

    So home it was then. Rested, then got ready for KS post birthday dinner since I hadn't wanted to join her in the club.

    There weren't very many of us. The intimate group included KS, WT, CB, JB, LG, and DP

    Can you guess one of her favoured colours?

     

    Lemon Meringue Mojito 

    Some sort of East Indian dish. Note-to-self: Never order an East Indian dish from a non East Indian restaurant. 

    KS's complimentary ice cream and cake. We raped it

    It was actually quite brief. After we ate, KS and WT headed for the club, the rest back to SFU to continue their study sesh and I walked back home. I thought of joining them but I'm just too lazy now.
