Can I just say that I am relieved to be done with my first week at the hospital? It's been a wonderful learning experience so far, but I'm wiped out! (Cut me some slack, I've been awake for a solid 17 hours...) Today had it's own adventures just like every day... patients whose speech I can't understand...patients who don't cooperate very well...and of course some patients who make my heart melt a little. One thing I've noticed is that I love being friendly to every patient--even if they are difficult. I figure that those people deserve a smile and friendly greeting more than anyone. I'm just surprised at how much I love them... I didn't expect that so much.
I'm still figuring out some of the logistics of the internship, but I know it'll come. Like I mentioned in my last post, my supervisor is so great--she is so patient with me and gives me confidence to keep trying.
On a completely different note, I got copies of our family pictures that we had taken at our reunion in July. Here are just a few--they turned out great! I love my family. They all inspire me to be my best self.

Each of my siblings' families had portraits taken, and since I am my own "family", I got a glamour shot. :)
