Last night

My first shift at the burn unit went really well. My preceptor is really nice and actually lives really close to me in Santa Cruz. The most exciting thing that happened last night was that I did my first blood draw! It's a pretty routine and mundane thing, but for me it was really exciting and felt very "nursy". My patient's veins were "highways to success" so I wasn't even nervous. Unfortunately, he was quite the joker and delighted in yelling in pain when I stuck that needle in him. Thanks, dude.

I think I have the next couple days off so I can actually do some laundry and cook dinner! Exciting stuff.
