today was the last day of my clinical rotation on Ward 293. it was actually quite sad. my clinical tutor bought in 2 boxes of tim horton's donuts for the nurses as a 'thank-you' gift. however, because they were a 'thank-you' gift, we students didn't get any. there were boston creme donuts in there. my favorite. but apparently it would have defeated the purpose. whatever. not fair!! i work hard and i deserve a reward.

but it would figure that today, being the last day, would be my hardest. it starts off with the fact that 2 of my patient's didn't speak english. so i'm trying to figure out what they want, and yet, no one told me they were drugged up. and, end of the day i spend a good 20 min trying to get a woman set up on her badpan. i ended up getting out of there 19 min late. grrrr. you know, you can really build up a sweat setting someone up on one of those things.

and to top it all off, i forgot myy locker combination. oh, i had it written down: in my wallet, which was in my bag, which was in my FRICKIN LOCKER!!! *sigh* so there's 3 of us nurses trying to figure out how to open it. we looked quite funny listening to it with our stethoscopes. i ended up having it sawed off.

thank goodness my clinical tutor ordered red wine with lunch.

now i just have to get through night class.
