i'm on these disgusting antibiotics again for the mrsa. what a nuisance. let me tell you. i just called the pharmacist on call and asked her if it was absolutely necessary to be on these because of my concern over antibiotic resistance etc. i feel like i should know these things already considering i'm halfway through my nursing program.
there's just too much shit to know.

anyway. blah blah.
tour of the supervised injection site tomorrow! i've already been there once, but its always a very interesting place to visit. i'm not sure what it is that draws me to this particular population (homeless, drug addicts...) but i am anyway. one of the homeless men that i've known for two years, i visited him yesterday and he informed me that he just recently had a mild heart attack and had to go to the emergency for bypass surgery. we spent half an hour going over all the medications he is now on, and about his blood sugar, and all these other things. i found out that he used to be a paramedic..which is why his knowledge was so..well..up there. he really did know a lot, medically, and about how everything in our body connected. it was amazing and super interesting. and wow. it just made him a lot more human. (you know, having a story)

we had our orientation for community health as well. did i mention that? i probably did.

anyway, i signed up for teaching 6 and 7th graders about alcohol and peer pressure and drugs etc. i never really had any effective teaching with regards to that when i was that age...everyone had attitude. and that age is just full of danger and change and indifference...so i'm not sure how i'm going to go about this.

excited though.

also went swimming these last 2 days! ya be proud.

nothing much else. i'm really working on finding myself and being comfortable with being alone and not having that desire for a boy or whatever to make me feel better.

its good.

my brain is on all sorts of other things right now.

and i gotta say,

its fucking liberating.
