a mental health morning

Last night I decided that it would be in the best interests of myself and the rest of the world if I took the morning off uni today. The beauty of this plan is that I only miss one lecture because all I have on is a single lecture and a 3 hour break. And a text from a uni person has just told me that I didn't miss much in the lecture. I only slept in til 8:20 but it was still much needed.

Hospital day yesterday was quite uneventful. We learnt about oxygen administration masks and when oxygen is needed and how much and precautions in therapy and stuff. Quite interesting. Then a tutorial on... hmmm peripheral signs of respiratory disease. During the three hour break I did a bit of reading and discovered that stethoscopes are good sound cancelling devices, depending on where you put the diaphragm. I had mine on my textbook. Which was on a table. If the loud mouthed person who never shuts up had been touching the table this would have been bad but he wasn't. So all was well with the world.

And this weekend I don't have to work!! Huzzah!! My pay slips lately have been quite exciting but it comes at a cost.
