Fluid and Electrolyte Balance

| life | navy | medicine |

Tomorrow is my 5th test of the class. I am looking forward to it because I feel like I have the information pretty much down packed. We are going over the fluid and electrolyte balances in the body. There are a lot of ions to remember but after looking over all the information so much I should be able to pass without any issues.

I have recently begun to use my PDA again. I feel that writing down things that need to be done, is a very helpful tool. The PDA is always there with me and it is satisfying to be able to check something off of a list. However, at times I feel like I spend more time planning and less time doing.

I want to make a resolution that I will stick to all the plans that I make on my PDA unless there is a legitimate excuse not to. Which is very rare. Laziness is not an excuse, and lord knows I have tons of it! Tomorrow morning is the Command Master Chief Run and I am kind of excited about it. Its always good to have a little bit of motivation on a friday morning.

Im not sure what I am going to do this weekend but I am going to try to be pretty frugal. I have a trip to washington the second week in July, and John is coming down to Virginia Beach on the third week. I am going to need to save up some money for those two trips. I am really excited but in the meantime will try to make the best of my time and try not to let my missing him consume me. Lol It has for a while and I am just now finally realizing that I need to stop being so childish. This is Life. We are not going to be near the ones we love at all times 24/7. We shouldn’t either. Its not healthy. It is bad for the relationship. Smothering someone is never a good thing.

I sold my laptop and sidekick on ebay. I got a new phone that is eco friendly from motorolla. ( I am almost ready to maybe write a little review about it. Also I want to write a review about the book I just finished “Secrets to Happiness.” Look for those to come soon.) It is just a little bit of extra money but its helping me out a bit. I want to get some side jobs going on the weekends so I can bring in some more disposable income. if anyone knows of any side weekend jobs in the Hampton Roads Virginia area make sure you let me know! :)

Tomorrow’s test is the last thing I have ti worry about till monday. Thank God Its Friday! :D

Occupation and Preoccupation

Here’s Jony Ive in his Stripe interview: What we make stands testament to who we are. What we make describes our values. It describes our preoccupations. It describes beautiful succinctly our preoccupation. I’d never really noticed the connection between th…

What do we do when the facts don't matter?

As a journalist by training, I have what you might call an addiction to facts. I believe that there are things that are true and things that are not, and that we can determine one from the other through observation, rational thought, and meticulous resear…

Back to the Future

This past weekend, I decided to take a trip down memory lane and take a look at the evolution of this blog’s design over the years (with a little help from the Wayback Machine). While I’ve really enjoyed the challenge of making an obsessively backwards co…
