Job Interview!

So this has been a crazy stressful week! first my dog chewed up my phone, and then all day yesterday people from my class were getting calls for interviews down at Dixie, and i was freaking out because my phone wasn't working so how were they going to contact me? well lucky they emailed me and i have an interview for the Dixie Regional Medical Center Residency program Tomorrow at 11am! i am so excited but also so nervous, its a group interview because they got so many applicants, im worried i wont stand out i just don't know what to do im freaking out i really want this, but im afraid they wont like me. ahh what to do! so everyone if you will pray for me and keep me in your thoughts and send me good vibes that would be awesome!!

ps this is my last week of class crazy!!!

Im going to miss you little brother!

So my little brother Austin left on his mission today :( its a bitter sweet day, i know he is doing the right thing and will be a great missionary, but i know im going to miss him so much! we were always so close and got a long well, but he is going to have a great experience and i can write to him. so i guess i will live.

on a happier note, i was in Phoenix this past weekend and can i tell you how much i love Phoenix, i have never been before, and i just fell in love with the city, i cant wait to go back! so i was in phoenix for the mid year NSNA confrence, it is a confrence for nursing students. it was a good time not as great as i had expected it, but i had a lot of fun. we got to see the site of phoenix, went to the zoo, and just had a blast. i learned some good things for school and got to talk to some recruiters which helped me feel more comfortable for appying for jobs.

oh and graduation is 4 weeks away! its so scary and exciting, i feel and know i have so much to do still, but i can't wait to be done with school!

I'm feeling Crafty!

So i went up north last weekend to see my family, and me, my mom and aunts went to a craft fair where i saw this awesome booth that sold very cute head bands. well there was one with some feathers on it, that i just fell in love with. but since i can't wait till christmas ;) i decided to make my own, so here are some pics of the feather headbands i made! i just love them!

ps. i only have one month left of school! yay its so crazy i can't believe im almost done! i can start applying for jobs now which is awesome and scary.

Quick Update

Hey guys sorry its been a while, i wanted to wait and post pictures of what we have been up to, but i broke my camera so no pictures sorry. :( well school is still crazy as ever, i just finished up my preceptor on Sunday which was a great experience im glad i had the opportunity to follow and nurse around and have a great mentor teach me. so now that that is over i get to do 8 shifts in the ER, ICU, NICU, ect. this will be an adventure i just know it.

Jesse has found a new activity he loves down here, he has been going shooting like twice a week, he has his dads old 22 rifle and he loves going shooting when ever he can, but that means now he really wants a shotgun, and a pistol. so at least i know something to get him for christmas :)

for all my family and friends that dont already know, my little brother Austin got his mission call about a month ago! he will be serving in the Columbia South Carolina mission! he leaves Nov, 4th, 2009. i am so excited and proud of my little brother, i know he is doing a great thing adn will be an amazing missionary!

I can't wait to be a nurse!

So this is just a quick update, so school has started and it is going well, classes are not as crazy as they have been in the past. lots of busy work but that"s to be expected. so this last week i was able to start my preceptor. for those of you who don't know what this is, it is like an internship, i get paired up with a nurse and follow them around, basically doing there job and having them mentor and evaluate me. I must say that i am LOVING this! I have been paired up with 2 nurses, who both are amazing! i am learning so much and am finally feeling like a real nurse. I can't wait to get back to the hospital and finish my shifts! i just love the feeling of helping people, and being able to make there life a little easier. I can't wait to be graduated and to be doing this for the rest of my life!
