shaking in my boots.

so a lot of people have been receiving their CRNE results lately......as of yesterday and i'm so freaking nervous waiting for that letter. i check the mail everyday and think excessively about whether the letter is gonna be fat or skinny. it makes me sooo nervous omg. i don't even want to think about it. maybe i'll just face the reality when the letter actually comes instead of stressing about it while it's on its way........ X____________X

well i had my first night shift on wednesday and it was a good shift! nights can go either way... everyone can be sleeping and it can be very peaceful OR everything can go wrong and it could be crazy. thankfully it was one of those more peaceful nights where i was able to look up some policies and procedures and do lots of stuff for my patients as well. they were SOO cute, i love little toddlers. <3 but honestly in pediatrics, the parents are there like 80% of the time and it's great that they participate in the care but sometimes i wish they weren't around so often because i just want to hold their baby LOL. i'm not crazy, they're just SO CUTE! but one significantly cool thing from night shift is that.... THERE WAS A PATIENT FROM CUPERTINO!!! i was like O_O haha so apparently this kid got really sick while camping in santa cruz and they didn't think much of it. then the following week, they came to Vancouver for a family trip and he started getting worse... poor kid. when i looked at the file and saw Cupertino, CA i was like AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! haha and of course they were asian. :P

chelsea and i had dinner at banana leaf the other day and IT WAS SO DELICIOUS. we got a 7 course prix fixe menu and it was SO yummy. especially the fried banana and ice cream dessert because the bananas were HUGE and i haven't eaten that in FOREVER! i love that this restaurant is pretty close to me so it's super convenient! afterwards we walked to Granville Island to hunt down the cute lunchbox store but we couldn't find it. but there's an indoors farmer's market and i bought some yummy blueberries! the weather was gorgeous that day so we got such good exercise walking everywhere.

today is my 2nd out of my 5 days off and the weather is GORGEOUS. yesterday kylie and i went to Kits because i wanted to check out the bikram yoga studio and we ended up shopping on W. 4th and eating the CHEAPEST SUSHI OF MY LIFE. i got 24 pieces (3 rolls, 8 pieces of each) and a miso soup for $6!!!!!!!! i was so amazed. the sushi was good too! nothing extremely special but what do you expect, it's freaking $6. i'm really excited because if i do join bikram yoga, i'm gonna get food from here all the time because it's literally right nextdoor :] and the place is super cute...it's called Broadway Sushi and it's a little cute family-owned sushi restaurant. the parents make the food and the little daughters work the cash - SO. CUTE. and then after sushi, kylie took me to buy watermelon (because i refuse to WALK HOME with a watermelon from safeway....way too freakin heavy) and it is delicious. yup, i just pretty much wrote a whole paragraph about food. i'm such a fatty.

well, today me and kylie are gonna try to hike it up to Grouse Mountain - one of the biggest most popular mountains in Van. this was kylie's idea because she has "never been to a mountain before". HAHAHA so we'll see how this goes. i'm scared. i'm gonna go read Shopaholic while i wait for her.

oh yeah! i got my first paycheck today =) it's nothing special or big though... it only covered 3 days of orientation -_- but still yay money! i'm excited for when the bigger checks start rolling in... HAHA $$ cha chingggg!

here is me at the Aritizia base on Robson St <33333333333




yeah, i think Vancouver is going to turn me into an EXTREME aritzia/lululemon slave.... hahaha :P






i miss you all <3
