First Time

This week has been a smooth one. The week started off with lectures and tonnes of practical. Revielle has always been late, at 6 a.m. but sometimes as early as 5.30a.m. No one's complaining though! Nights out on Wednesday was spent watching Mean Girls. It was a bitchy and funny show; kinda reminds me of Final Destination.
Thursday saw us having our first IV (intravenous) infusion. Not so much the pain that bothers me but the pain of having to poke your buddy and also the risk of stroke and cardiac failure if a bubble as big as a50-cent coin were to enter the bloodstream. My buddy got a 'one shot one kill' but I had to poke him twice since the catheter was bent on the first try. Juz 9 more IVs to go. It will definitely leave a scar or rather holes in my skin.
Next week have guard duty and what a perfect time to have guard duty; its nights off day! But as they say here, nights out is a privellege, not and entitlement. Lan Lan have to suck thumb.
