| | So its been a while..... sooooooooooo here is an update. My first rotation in Palos Heights ended. It was my first, so i learned a lot, made some new friends and enjoyed a semblance of a summer. My second rotation at Great Lakes Naval Health Clinic began 3 weeks ago and so far.... i'm loving it! Its way up north, so i moved into Dave's 1 bedroom apt in which i'm going to have a dinner/potluck early in october so try to leave that saturday free my friends.  Its small, but cozy and i'm getting used to being kind of on my own without being lonely. But i wake up at 5 am every morning to go to work by 6:30.... Me and two other girls rotate among three buildings and take care of new recruits and active duty personnel's eyes. Every day to every question I ask I get a "Yes Maam! No Maam! I'm not sure Maam!" Great Lakes is the only Naval boot camp in the nation so there are a lot of frightened and anxious recruits. It was so funny on the first day when me and my class mate walked into the main building where a hundred pair of eyes turned and looked at us.... But its nice to actually take care of a group who actually do appreciate your efforts. I was getting real sick of some patients out there who think you're wasting their time.
I'm getting used to the going to work early. My sister has finally moved out of my parents' as well and attending pharm school. So far she's loving it. Last weekend me and Dave were bored sitting at home so we went out to Lincoln Park and had some beer and wings at J. Barleycorn and then since they didn't have a Dj spinning sunday night, we hit upthe APT. Oh my gosh i haven't been there in so long but the music was good and I had a good time. Dave drank enough to dance and we stopped cuz my feet hurt. This weekend is C+B's wedding.... Its going to be beautiful and i know we'll all have a great time. Tomorrow is the rehearsal so i'm driving straight down to Oak Brook from Great Lakes after work.
Boards II is around the corner so b4 i have to study hard again, i wanted to go out again....9/22. Call me if anyone wants to meet up. I was thinking of trying out some bars on Rush/Division?
*Cc i made a consult appt w/ grace for next week. I'll let you know how it goes when you come back from your HM.
*Stephi chan... i was watching some old anime episodes and realized how much Nihongo i've forgotten.  Hope all is well w/ you!
