ok --- TOMORROW

I was going to play catch up tonight with the photo-a-day thing and I have half a blog written and the pictures taken but I had living room tonight and that was more important - so once again - I will catch up TOMORROW! I PROMISE! ITS FRIDAY! WAHOO!

I'm exhausted - if you couldn't tell about by all the caps

February 1: Your View Today

I know that mere hours ago I said that I was going to attempt to use my new-to-me camera for this little photo adventure, but I didn't know I was going to be embarking on this little journey until this morning and my view mostly consists of a little cubicle in the IAHS library at McMaster. I love school, I love what I am learning, I love knowing that I am working towards a career that I am really excited to start. I don't love how it interferes with my social life and my church life - but I know that these are sacrifices I am going to have to make to get to my ultimate goal.

Study Break

How was the last time I posted on here in JULY?! IT IS OCTOBER? And so is the theme of my life. Update: I am in my THIRD YEAR of school....year three. It just feels more official now, when I was in level 2 and I would go to clinical I felt like I needed to be babysat because I didn't know anything. Level 3 is a whole different ball game, the expectations are higher and so is the responsibility and that foggy dim view of myself as an RN is now less foggy and more clear.

In a year and a half I am going to be solely responsible for people in the most vulnerable time of their life. That is a big deal and not one I am going to take lightly. Having the opportunity to work at St. Joe's this summer really motivated me to do well this year. Not that I haven't tried my hardest in the last two years...

Today I ate lunch at the American Grill, which is the same restaurant that I ate at the first night I came here and I was having flashbacks to being exhausted and actually quite confused to what was happening around me, compared to how I am feeling today. Indonesia has now officially become a part of my every day life, I have gotten over the tourist hump and I now feel like it is my "home". I still have these moments where I am like "Wow, I am in INDONESIA!!" There are so many things that I now find familiar that two months ago where totally foreign to me. Things like taking a taxi EVERYWHERE (let me remind you that I am from Lynden and had taken maybe 5 taxi's my whole life before coming here.) When I first arrived here, I had learned to tune out all outside conversation because, well, it gets overwhelming being surrounded by groups of people who are speaking a language tha...
