- My cousin got married and I made her cake topper! I think I'm retiring or taking a long hiatus from that business for a while.
- Turned 26. Officially getting older and heading towards the big 3-0.
- Officially done HFO and now am permanent part-time staff. I've been pretty busy as part time, so I don't mind that I'm not full-time at the moment. I've been working solo for the last 2 months and been doing "amazingly" according to many co-workers. It's nice to be acknowledged by your peers.
- I ventured into other creative avenues and started making screened/printed T-shirts/tanks for fun. I did a couple for myself (with really cute dinosaurs), one for the boyfriend, and one contracted out. Not doing anymore for a little while.
- My boyfriend and I have been together for 3 years. Awww. Yay!
- Went and came back from a weekend trip to NYC with my closest girlfriends. We had an amazing time shopping and sightseeing! I would definitely go back but I think I'd like to see other nice places in the states too.
- My boyfriend has officially completed school (round 2!) and has a job! It's been such a tiring process - I had no idea Paramedics had such a hard time getting job. It's like a 4 step interview process and it's complicated by the fact that we only really have like 5 regions for EMS, so that basically means you have only 5 (maximum) chances to get a job. In contrast, Nurses are hired in clinics, hospitals, camps, etc... and there are TONNES of openings. So I am extremely proud of him to get his first choice.
- I've started to workout at the gym during my night shifts. I used to work out prior to going to work, but I'm starting to realize I NEED my sleep post/pre-night shifts, so I am willing to bring my stuff to the gym to workout during my 2-hr break at night. I wouldn't be sleeping during those 2 hours anyway, so might as well. I slacked off exercising properly for a while, so it feels good to get back into it. Pretty convenient, actually, having the gym in the hospital, because I can shower after and then eat a bit before returning for the last 4 hours of my shift.
That's all for now...
