So clinical was cancelled Friday. Why is that you ask?
Uh, yeah that's right - we got a "little" bit of the wonderful fluffy white stuff also known as snow. Second weekend in a row actually. Funny thing is while I enjoy the break that the snow provides, after a day or so of being snowed in I'm ready to join the world again. I would rather go to clinical, learn some things, put my hours in and enjoy the beautiful sunshine days at the end of the semester (built into our schedule in case of snow days). When I first heard the teachers say they had built in snow days during orientation I was like WHAT? We are most definitely not going to need those. This is Virginia, maybe if we were back in Connecticut, but not here. Boy was I wrong!
Nicole and I desperately tried to find things to do with ourselves. Movies have been exhausted and there is only so much homework one can do before going crazy...
So we ventured out in the snow. Here I am with my gram mobile. (Pardon the outfit but I threw whatever on because I don't have my "snow clothes" here.)
Looking a hot mess, but we made it to the mailbox across the street. Woa, a trip to the mailbox?!?! I know we like to live it up!!
When we came back in and defrosted ourselves I looked at my high heels and they were calling out to me. Don't get me wrong, my nursing shoes (those bright white ones in the middle) are comfortable but when you have to wear them all the time your other shoes start to feel left out. You know? Plus being in sweats for the last two weekends just wasn't cutting it anymore. A girl needs to feel like a girl. So Nicole and I decided to dress up...
All dressed up and nowhere to go...but oh well! It felt nice to be dressed up. Before I put this dress on I walked around in my hot pink one with my pink pumps just because! Then after taking some photos I sat around in my heels because they needed to feel loved. I realize that this makes me a little crazy/silly/absurd but I'll blame it on the snow.
This evening we decided we were going OUT. We got in Pearl, Nicole's car, who handled the snow like a pro and went to see Dear John with my favorite eye candy, Channing Tatum!
So that has been my life for the last week or so. Seeing as I chose a school in the south I never thought I would have to deal with this much snow. All I have to say is I have enjoyed the sleep in a little later mornings but I sincerely hope the snow is done. Sunshine is very much welcomed!
