Sooooo tomorrow I have three hours of class and then I'm FREE until next Monday. Holy easter eggs that's amazing. After that I have two weeks of class before finals, and I'll be halfway through my first year of pharm school. I feel like I've improved significantly since I started here, which makes me feel awesome, and I just got back my fourth biochem exam and was estatic to learn that I earned a 90%. I might be able to pull off a B in that class afterall. :D :D

I had a ridiculously busy weekend. Friday Mike's friend from high school Nick picked me up in Grand Rapids and the three of us went to see Casino Royale, the only James Bond movie I've ever seen. Despite this it was still enjoyable, and whoever the guy was who played Bond was butt-naked in a scene near the end and he has a really nice body. So that was good.

Saturday was the lovely Kate's bridal shower, and she got so much stuff OMG. It was a lot of fun and we played some corny games and ate the most giant baked potatoes I've ever laid eyes on. :D MMmmm. Afterwards I was scheduled to have my bridesmaid dress fit at David's Bridal, and what an ordeal that was. The woman who helped me was completely incompetent, and each time I came out of the dressing room with a dress on Mike had to go hunt her down in the store because she couldn't sit still. Then she brought me three of the wrong style dress before I finally pointed out that these gowns looked nothing like what the lovely Kate showed me. After finally finding the right dress in the right size, I went to pay and of course their computers wouldn't work for like a million years. *COMPLAINS* But the dress is very pretty and I can't wait to wear it. :D

Sunday was spent doing homework, cleaning, preparing for my visit to Promed Family Practice, and then in the evening we were invited to have dinner with Mike's friends Dave and Adrienne, who were apparently having a pre-Thanksgiving dinner. I haven't seen them in ages. Then I came back to the apartment and proceeded to feel very nervous for the rest of the night about my visit to the pharmacy today.

As an introduction to being a pharmacy intern, the first year of pharmacy school requires you to visit two different pharmacy sites, one in each semester. I was assigned a partner and a location (based on my geographical preferences) and I had to stay for at least three hours. Much to my irritation, they gave us no spare time to do this. We had to work it around the pharmacy's schedule, our preceptor's availability, and a full-time school schedule here in Big Rapids. I was lucky in that my preceptor was available to speak with us this morning and my pharmacy site was located in Portage near Kalamazoo. I merely stayed an extra night downstate and drove back up here with my partner Jeff (he wasn't a big talker--made for a long-ass drive).

We got back about ten minutes before class started and holy crap the whole thing was just stressful. I had a great time at the pharmacy and I got to ask a lot of burning questions, but I always feel very anxious over things like this. It turned out to be a great experience though.

Now I only have to suffer through another day of class before I can go home and play Mariokart, eat real food, and pet my dog. :D
