Slowly but surely the seal weakens

Apparently a male can carry a baby for 9 months but there is a catch

In the online lecture the instructor said that a fertilized egg can be implanted into the male’s abdominal cavity and everything that happens in a female will happen to the male. The only difference is that the male will have to be on female hormones and may be able to deliver a baby naturally otherwise through a c-section. But when the male has given birth and the placenta has fallen out, the man will bleed out because the uterus, (only found in the female) has the ability to stop bleeding after a massive trauma (separation of the placenta from the uterus).

So females, if you want to kill a man but also want a baby. Have sex with him, drug him, implant the fertilized egg in him and in 9 months you have a baby and a dead man. Win-win.

I got to touch a placenta (The afterbirth) today

And it felt like a squashed brain and it was a bloody mess. It was cool to touch and it was heavier than I expected. I still cant believe some people would eat this though. Seriously, google placenta recipes and you will see some. 

I am done with pediatrics and now I will be dealing with pregnant women.

I don’t think I can stand seeing a vagina. Especially one that has just given birth. I already know that its a mess down there a couple days after giving birth but can’t we just leave what it looks like to my imagination? I really don’t need a first hand experience of what it actually looks like.

Alright, so little by little I am coming out to my nursing classmates.

I have been making even more subtle hints to them. Like one of the things that happened was when I got in trouble for having my boxers show through my scrub pants, my friends asked me why dont I wear boxer briefs because girls find that more attractive. I told her, I would wear boxer briefs if I cared that girls find my attractive. I cant flat out say that I like guys but I was like this when I first made this tumblr. I couldnt say I like guys until my blog was roughly 2 years old. I just have to fast track my coming out to them because I only have one year left before we graduate.

pawkitj answered your question: Is there such a thing as like a cookie butter or something?

there IS

Proof? Picture or give a brand or name to google plz. Telling a cookie lover that cookie butter exists can be life altering. 

Is there such a thing as like a cookie butter or something?

You know like peanut butter but made of cookies or something cookie related. 

I know about frosting but is there anything else? 

If not then I better start working on making one. Imagine if I make a good one and people go crazy for it.

TO THE PANTRY!!

Went to a nursing conference for the first time ever

It was actually pretty entertaining. They talked about some interesting stuff, like how hospitals are shifting from ADN degrees to BSN degrees but it is taking a while because of the staffing shortages. We also talked about how to deal with burnout and I must say I am pretty proud at how I am basically doing things they recommended the whole time. 

There were also cute guys there. I wasent expecting that, they were pretty decent looking. Too bad each school was in their own little clique at lunch. I would have tried interacting with them but none of my friends who came with me wanted to. 

BTW: Did I mention there was free breakfast AND lunch? The muffins and pastries were huge and the box lunches had a lot of food in them.

Thinking of going to another one of these conferences. 

I didnt get elected club president :(

I lost by 2 votes. So now 2 quarter 2 students are heads of the club. When I first got the news in the lab, I didnt really care. I was like I lost so what? Then after people started leaving the lab and I started becoming alone with my thoughts it started hit me that I lost. At first I was confused, like I didnt think I would get depressed at all but I was feeling it a bit. 

I guess because as much as I told people I didnt really care if I was elected deep down I really wanted it. I tend to do that a lot. I say I dont want something but deep down and with people I trust, I might be excited.

Or maybe something deeper. I have a fear of people hating me. I always worry about the things I do around people. I always try to be nice and helpful but what if I seem annoying and lazy or a total bitch? What if me losing this election shows that I am not well liked around the program? What if people hate me? My friends know I tend too much or say things without thinking but its always in a light hearted manner. What if the wrong person heard me say something at the wrong time or actually took me seriously when I said something? 

Regardless, I will make sure my class has the best graduation whether I am president or not. It just means I have to jump through a few more hoops to get what I want.

God help anyone that has an ongoing medical condition of any kind whatsoever. Not just because of the condition itself, but because of the multiple doctors that are going to get in your way, not listen to you, not help you, interrupt you, shrug their shoulders, dismiss you, and hurry you out of their offices because your frustration makes them uncomfortable.

I wouldn’t wish these experiences on anyone.

That is why one of the jobs of nurses are to fill in this gap left by doctors. If you follow a doctor around the whole day, you will find that they have to see a whole bunch of patients. In a hospital, in can be more than one floor or sometimes it can be more than one hospital. They simply do not have the time to be caring, or seem like they are not listening to you. On top of that they might have to go into surgery with the surgeon to see first hand how the patient really is and a surgery can be from 15 mins to hours. 

Nurses will have a few patients, (In California I believe the max is 8, I could be wrong) and the good nurses will take time out of their busy schedule to speak with you. We will find a way to make your time easier in a hospital, from getting you food to getting a warm blanket.

Thats why my goal as a nurse is to always find time to sit with a patient and talk with them. As of right now, the stress from instructors as well as not knowing what to expect from day to day. prohibit me from talking with them as much as I like. 

We have more power than being the “doctors little bitch” as one of my instructors have put it. If you dont like a medication that we are giving you, let us know. We could mix it with juice to make it taste better or ask the doctor to get a flavored medication for you. Can’t swallow pills? We might be able crush it. Just communicate with us and we will do our best.

Sometimes when it comes to school

You have to say fuck it and do what you want for a couple of hours before going back to studying. Just dont go overboard. Put a timer for an hour or something so you dont forget. I know how tumblr can make 2 hours feel like 2 minutes.
