Ok, it seems that it's always Friday nights that I blog :) (we're on a 3-week run now), but i spose that's because my minds always full of what I've been doing in the past week, what we've discussed at youth club and what my plans are for the next week......
so my musings for the week:
#1: PRAC!! was amazing! loved it! by the end of it I had achieved my stated aim of ordering 4 patients around at a time.... yay!! luv you all my patients!! you were so kind and understanding with me... there was this one young dude - patient A - (about 25yo), who didn't realise until today I was a student (he told me "I would never have guessed", yup patients DO NOT read name badges and uniforms, all they see is the fob watch and the white blouse) and then all of a sudden everything when he realised I was a student, he made fun of everything I did...he kept going 'ouch, ouch' every time I gave him a needle, when I changed his dressing, even when I did his blood pressure... and kept asking me if I was sure of what I was saying)... and the guy sharing his room (~30 years old) kept threatening to push the Medical Emergency call button whenever I was doing something to patient A... i was literally just about crying with laughter... Absolutely loving, Loving, LOVING the nursing at the moment! I've never felt so sure that I'm on the right track with my studies. Only a year to go!
#2: INTERVIEW - umm yeah, so I got rung up today and asked to come for an interview with PMH on 15th August..... wow!! I'm blown away, I so thought I wasn't getting one as everybody else had heard from the other hospitals if they had an interview.... but yeah, apparently they were just a little behind on the paperwork, so yep, now I just have to prepare my professional CV! and prepare for a 15-minute grilling interview.... *gulp*
#3: ROMANS 7 - what an amazing chapter to reflect on our own innate sinfulness.... there is Paul, author of 13 books of the Bible, telling us of his own personal struggles and frustrations in overcoming sin... how true it is for my own life. I pray to God that He will give me the TRUE desire to overcome my sin, so often I'm just so comfortable in the same patterns and ruts of sin and life. As Paul puts it - "Who will deliver me from this body of death? Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord!"
What a wonderful God we have!!
Goodnight all my blogreaders!!! xx
