Day 30 (01/30)

so whats going on in the life and times of angelica WELL i woke up needing to pee and when i wiped i saw a lil bit of blood so i was like "oh god. it's happening" and this shit just snuck up on me. like i did not know my period was coming. i knew it was coming soon but i didn't feel sick or anything before it did like i usually do. anyways as i was getting ready for clinicals my uterus started hurting bad i was like "damn it this is gonna happen" and like the dumb idiot i am i forgot to take ibuprofen before i left so on my drive and throughout clinicals, just a shooting pain in my uterus. i'm a very forward and open person, obviously. i'm not gonna pretend like the shit that happens to my body doesn't happen because it happens. i'm not gonna come up with code words for my vagina or bodily fluids. so of course i was screaming about my bleeding vagina and uterine contractions all fucking day

and then we only had 4 surgeries so there wasn't much to do so all my attention was on my dumb vagina. no interesting cases today, there was an HBC that came in that we ended up sending to the eastside shelter for radiographs since he was walking on his hind legs funny but that's about it. i cleaned a lot. ugggh there was a dog that had really bad diarrhea all over her towel and i was the one who ended up cleaning it up of course. smelled so bad. after i was all done the doctor was like "let's parvo test her!!" um THANKS for parvo testing after i just cleaned her diarrhea kennel let's dO thAT. luckily it was negative but STILL

after clinicals i went to petsmart to get zelda some food and toad some kitten shampoo. got home, changed, fed zelda, finally took some ibuprofen, and alex dropped me off at school. as soon as i got there i just immediately wanted to leave. i stayed for pharmacology half crying because i was exhausted and hurting and hated life but sucked it up and took the quiz. we had lecture afterwards about routes of drug administration and stuff. afterwards we had a lab animal lecture from a girl from LRRI that works with mice and primates which i thought was pretty cool. they're always hiring so maybe i'll check that place out after i graduate for application. not to mention they pretty much pay higher than a clinic but ionno it's still not what i'm interested in. hardly any clinic or anywhere except for maybe the zoo or aquarium works with reptiles and amphibians and that's mostly what i care about. i still love playin with puppies and kitties

lecture ended early and everyone went home while i waited for alex to pick me up. once he did i drove to the bank to deposit a check my sister gave me like 4 days ago lol and then went home and alex and i passed out. idk why we were so tired

woke up, alex left to see his friends before they moved out of their house. i stayed home and watched degrassi and now i'm typing this. waiting for alex to come home with food since i've only eaten like one donuts and a butterfinger all day. we'll probably just watch tv all day. AHS coven finale!! ahhhh

Day 29 (01/29)

i'm gonna do this now because i have a ton of hw and last night's late night to watch and i don't wanna spend the whole time thinking about my 365

so jess picked me up this morning and we went to go get our passport photos taken for our VTNE and state board applications. went to the state board and dropped off our stuff and later on scheduled my test day for march 28th. holy fuck. this is it guys. taking my national exam on lady gaga's birthday AND my british gf rachel's birthday so i better get a bunch of lesbian luck from both of them

for school clinicals we just talked about what might be on the VTNE. we had doc lecture today on birds and reptiles and small tiny mammals. honestly. i'm starting to not give a shit about ferrets or guinea pigs or mice or what have you. probably because i'm realizing i'm probably not just allergic to rabbits but all small tiny furry things?? maybe it's not even them maybe it's just their habitat. my allergies are more severe when i'm near a rabbit's actual living area like in the rabbit room at the animal shelter but if anything they're mild when it's just them alone.

all i cared about today was holding the god damn snake. sweetest flippin snake ever


i helped restrain in front of the class while doc talked about how to give it an exam and open its mouth and everything. hehehehe. i want a snake so bad

anyways i just had a headache all day kind of. now i gotta do my homework and cry about the VTNE. bye guise

Day 28 (01/28)

so like i should've known today was gonna suck because we started the morning off with a euthanasia of a dog with distemper. i've never seen distemper before. dude had bloody diarrhea and was shaking and his muscles were all tensed up and couldn't move. so yeah. poor puppy

but i screwed up so much today FIRST of all they went and took this dog with a prolapsed vagina out for a walk and while they were out i cleaned her kennel and she spilled her food EVERYWHERE. well i shook her blanket out and thought i got all the food out apparently i didn't because when the volunteer came in and did the laundry i forgot some pieces of food and it got stuck in the washer and she got all mad. whoa. i'll admit that was my bad. i also threw her empty food dish in the sink and the volunteer washed it, but when the volunteer asked where her food dish was and i told her she was like "WE USE THE SAME DISH FOR THE SAME DOG" and exasperatedly got another dish like there were 50 more dishes under the cabinet next to her kennel it wasn't that big of a fucking deal

SECOND this isn't even really a screw up but whatever. last time i filled the caps with tattoo ink we had 36 surgeries so i filled 2 capfuls of tattoo ink and they were all used. today we had 8 surgeries but i didn't know there were only 8 flippin surgeries and filled up 1 capful of tattoo ink APPARENTLY that's toooo damn much and will last them a week. eXcUse me

i tried to make up for all my eff ups by sweeping and mopping after all the surgeries and doing the surgical packs and washing the dishes and anesthetic equipment afterwards i was so damn proud of myself but 0 people said thank u. after i was all done i started checking on the patients and figured out which ones are okay to go back to their kennels and i put them all back. the last one i put back was a puppy that shit all down my jeans BY THE WAY i decided to wear my good, gray jeans instead of scrub pants today because i'm sick of those damn scrub pants. then while i was carrying him to his kennel, shit down my pants, he peed on my scrub top too right before putting him down. all those barking dogs probably made him nervous. that's when i decided i was fuCKIN done for the day. fuck this. going home. fuck everything

in the middle of the day i got a text from alex telling me cleo died last night. cleo was our friend's dog that i was particularly fond of. she was found dead once her mom got home with a distended stomach. i was so upset during recovery i almost broke into tears but i had to suck it up because i figured there are dogs here that need me right now and i can't think about that shit. but i loved cleo she was a good dog she always followed me upstairs and jumped up to give me a hug and lick my face whenever i visited alex before we lived together and her mom was always like "GET DOWN" but i was 100% okay with it i loved her so much

i got home and ended up KOing on the couch while alex worked out. i woke up and we messed around for a little bit not really doing shit. me complaining that i was hungry and watching tv and he made me a grilled cheese with avocado before mikaela picked me up so we could watch glee at jess's. i guess jess had a worse day at her clinicals than i did but everyone always ends up having a worse day than me, i just flip out about tiny things.

we finished season 1 and jess let me eat her leftover sadie's foods. now i'm back at home and watching bob's burgers with alex. we wrestled for a little bit but now i'm tired again. i wanted to watch AHS but i have to get up early tomorrow morning anyway. ugh there is nothing i want more than to sleep in on a weekday. if i don't work graveyard emergency shifts i think i'll die

Day 27 (01/27)

so today i slept in a lil too much so much i didn't have any time to study for my classes today which is ok i guess since we didn't have any quizzes

we had dentistry so we had to take the cat heads out and chart their teeth. our cat (sushi) was only missing her left mandibular first incisor but she had beautiful molars that justine and i got to show the class because they were perfect. while our teacher was giving her lesson i spent most of the lecture scaling tarter off the premolars. i understand why she wanted us to bring goggles because a bunch of calculus was chipping off into my face and my hair ugh. cat teeth are disgusting

afterwards we basically reviewed math in both supp lab and pharmacology and it was the longest 4 hours of my life ok. i found out i have to pay and apply for my national and state board exams this week. so dumb

anyways i got home and alex immediately left for work. we are almost never home at the same time and it sucks. i played pokemon for a lil bit then took a nap. woke up and watched tv and played more pokemon and ate food. fuck i'm so lazy. i'll watch AHS and then go back to bed before alex gets home. i have clinicals early tomorrow morning :-(

Day 26 (01/26)

wow sorry sorry sorry i keep forgetting

yesterday was sunday??? i didn't really do much alex went to work in the morning and i spent the day playing pokemon and taking dentistry notes. ummm watched some tv. anyways

alex got home and we were gonna run some errands and then i remembered it was the grammys!!!! but alex and i were already headed out the door when i turned the TV on just in time for bey-z's performance. we watched until lorde was done with her performance. what the fuck? that was so uncomfortable and it went on forever. sorry lorde if u ever see this. once commercials came on alex and i left.

we went to lowe's to get some blinds, then to gordmans to get linen sheets. we were gonna go to petsmart but it was already too late, so we picked up dinner at panda express!!!!! i haven't had that in forever. i got some donuts at krispy kreme as well. anna was working man the place looks hella different i haven't been there in forever but aww i noticed later anna gave me a huge discount. she was telling me about how she was about to bounce too so she can start at the police academy. i'm so happy everyone's already almost starting their futures!!!!

we went home and ate panda while watching the rest of the grammy's. so many opinions especially about macklemore. i'm just glad blurred lines and taylor swift didn't win anything. i wish kanye and 1D were there tho

after watching the grammy's we watched more TV, played vidya games and went to bed.

the sky was being really pretty awwww

Day 25 (01/25)

today i babysat my nephews. elliott was doing okay actually he cried for like 3 seconds after mom & dad left and then just played by himself mostly. miles was the one that was crying but it wasn't his fault most of the time. he was okay after watching spongebob and playing with his iphone and then elliott bit him and he was back to being grumpy again. "i hate you elliott!!!!!" no you don't "well if he bites me again i will!!!!" no you won't. "okay. i love you elliott." those kids are insane

i got home and watched an episode of grey's while having sinigang leftovers. still the best sinigang i ever made. i think i'm gonna get another helping after this except i don't have anymore rice so it'll just be a soup. i was super sleepy so i took a nap and when i woke up alex already went to work :-(

so yeah idk i've spent the rest of the day playing pokemon and watching tv and yeeeah. i should probably do my homework. i'll do it tomorrow UGH

Day 24 (01/24)

today was pretty productive i woke up to alex cooking me a skillet with potatoes, eggs, avocado, and spinach and it was so flippin good. so good. we finished season 2 of grey's anatomy and wow just watching that show makes my blood pressure go up just because of how dumb the characters are wow!!! i did my make up like perfect today. perfect eyeliner and everything.

then we went to a gordmans for a new comforter and the first one we went to didn't even have comforters!!! wtf!!!! so we went to the other one at coronado mall and they were all out of the comforter i wanted but we settled on this really nice teal/espresso colored pattern. we got a 7 piece for super cheap and the lady at the register was like "you saved $50 today!!!" cool!!!!

went to lowe's after and got some blinds because zelda chewed up the ones we have. she gets separation anxiety and we have to open the blinds but we forgot one night and when she can't look out the window she basically eats the blinds

then we went to ta lin market and got some ingredients so i could make sinigang today and we also got some filipino snackies!!!!! i was so excited they expanded the "manila" isle so now there's a lot more filipino stuff. at first i freaked out because i thought they took out all the snacks, but it turns out they were just in the next isle hahahahahahahahahahahahhahha. midway through checking out i noticed the cashier was this GUY that was in one of my theatre acting class. story with this guy: before i was dating alex, i was walking around uptown one day and i ran into this guy (i forgot his name. i'll call him...idk. piglet.) i ran into piglet and he was like "oh hey, i actually came here to meet with this girl for a date but i got stood up." and then he offered to buy me food from california pizza and i think he thought it was a date, because he was being extra nice to me during our acting classes after. like weirdly nice. creepy nice. i should've known better. but anyways, he was our cashier. and once i noticed i looked everywhere except for him. like "wow, are those hello kitty pens? do they have keroppi? maybe chococat i can give julie? hmmm??? oh, bags of rice? how much are those??? weird!!!!" after alex and i got back into the car i told him and he was like "yeah he like gave you a weird look but i assumed he was just checking you out" NO IT'S BECAUSE HE NOTICED WHO I WAS

then we went to smiths so i can get more ingredients for sinigang. that reminds me i bought a baby bottle pop wtf?!?!?! where did it go??? dang i probably left it in the car. anyways. we went to hastings to walk around afterwards and i saw this ungodly piece of merchandise



the contents were even ungodlier. afterwards i took alex to work and went home and set up our new comforter and made sinigang!!!! seriously the best i've ever made. and here's bridgette chillin on our bed


so yeah. i watched 2 episodes of grey's and i'm just getting angrier, i don't think this show is good for me. now i'm writing this. i'm tired but i have to stay up until midnight to pick alex up. sigggh. i'll just play pokemon until then. i should do homework but that can wait i think

Day 23 (01/23)

so i went to clinicals all hyped up on double-shot. i love that shit!!!!!! yes. we only had 8 dumb spays and neuters today so it was pretty slow. somethin was goin on so we didn't even start until 2 hours after i got there, so i basically just set up surgery, helped medicate some dogs, and played with this thing until we were ready to start surgeries!!! ahhhh her name is scarlet and she was found with a rubber band triple tied around the base of her tail, which was barely hanging off by a piece of skin. u truly don't know how cruel humans can be until you see cases like these



once surgeries started it was a pretty basic day. i held off for more of my own blood draws and i'm getting SO much better at intubation hehehehehe. it was 2 staff members' birthdays today so someone brought carne adovada burritos from golden pride. good thing too cause i didn't even have breakfast. pretty good day. i wouldn't mind working there

i went to school afterwards and started studying for our quiz with steve. ended up getting 10/10!!! it was bird restraint day so one of the students that had graduated last year showed up with her 7 cockatoos. tbh, i love birds. but cockatoos are not ok. nope. i watched one tear flesh off one of my cohort's finger today. his fault but still, no thanks. they're really sweet to each other tho

birdy preening

after witnessing the carnage i didn't even wanna touch them so i stayed in the back with mikaela and cici. also where the heater was. because it was 20 degrees in that classroom and fuck that, my fingers are already torn up as it is.

sigggh so yeah then mikaela and jess came over with me to my place to watch glee. we watched 3 episodes. u know what. idek. i can't believe how annoying mercedes was. mikaela brought me my christmas presents!! hell yeah. liam when he was like 16. but zayn is on that purple gel pen so it's all good. liam was still a qt



they left because i didn't have any food and they were hungry. hahaha i'm such a bad hostess. alex just buys ingredients because he actually makes stuff for me. so i don't really have any snacks except for hot cheetos, duhhh! and of course that shit is gonna be gone in 30 minutes after purchase

so yeah. alex just came home and now we're gonna watch lady killers and eat pizza because he came home with both, heeeeell yeeeeeah

Day 22 (01/22)

wow today sucked but then again nothing is bound to go right when you basically start ur day out on 3 hours of sleep

i went to the optometrist to get my contacts fitted. i still have a couple ulcer spots but most of them closed up and doc says i don't have to take the drops anymore. so i got some contacts and now i can wear sunglasses while i am driving because it's kinda hard wearing ur sunglasses over ur glasses

got to school like 2 hours before class started and no one was there. so i printed out some lectures for pharmacology and then played pokemon. finished breeding fennekins for when greg sends me a growlithe because i'm trying to breed heat wave onto it. did u know there's like a 12.5% chance of a fennekin coming out female? that's like one out of every 8 eggs is female that is so much fucking egg hatching and i need a female to breed with my 6IV male lucario when i breed heatwave onto a 5IV male growlithe. DAMN

so that happened, and steve showed up all fancy. and since all my friends had already texted me they were wearing dress clothes i was like fuckIN GREAT i'm the only person wearing scrubs and now i look like an asshole. more people showed up wearing dress clothes and eventually almost all of the class had showed up wearing god damn dress clothes and i started hyperventilating so i left the room and had a panic attack of course because that shit would happen to me

but whatever who cares about that right because obviously i was just looking for attention. so annoying of me.

i went home early after i found out pharmacology was cancelled and there were no quizzes today, because fuck that shit i'm not gonna sit in a classroom full of gorgeous dressed up people while i'm sitting in the corner looking like moldy bread. no thanks. i'd rather have 10 panic attacks. so i went home and cried my face off to alex about how my day just went to shit when i left the apartment this morning and he just held me which is all i ever really need and tried to understand what the hell is wrong with me

we watched tv before he left for work, and i've been watching grey's and breeding for a noivern before greg is able to trade me a growlithe. you know what? i've been having to breed for a 5IV swoobat at the same time with my 6IV lucario because swoobat is both field and flying egg group and so i need a 5IV male swoobat so that the IVs on all my breeded noibat come out right, and every noibat i breed with swoobat needs to be female. like this is some complicated ass shit!!! no wonder i'm so stressed it's because i decided to take up IV breeding as a hobby. sigh

now i gotta go apologize for some people for snapping at them

xoxo
jello

Day 21 (01/21)

what did i even get myself into

well it was clinicals day. shit. it's basically the same thing every day at the shelter. this time we had 36 spays and neuters which is actually about 20 more than we usually get so it was pretty busy, we weren't even done with all of them by the time i left. i think we were on the 2nd to last cat. lemme think of some memorable cases...

this dog went in for a spay. i thought it was for something else because her tail looked a little wonky, so i went ahead and induced her anyway. when i asked what exactly we were doing they were like "spay" and i was like um...but she's tattooed and has a giant scar right here. they were like o fuck, just throw her in recovery then. lmao. so we basically anesthetized her for no reason. at least she got her rabies.

there was a 4 month old kitten i intubated all by myself!!!! it's impressive because even grown ass cats are difficult to intubate so be flippin proud of me

i held off for my own femoral vein blood draw. i got blood but i ended up blowing the vein because i forgot to stop holding off. damn. i also expressed bladders with one hand because i used my other hand to hold the bowl. i pointed out a dermatitis case to the doctor. I DIDN'T DIAGNOSE. i was like, "is this dermatitis?" she was like "why yes it is" damn why didn't i just go to school to be a DVM amirite

this saddest and most heartbreaking in more reasons than one was this lil guy. shit i don't even know his name i was just calling him spunky all day. because he reminded me of the lil cocker spaniel beanie baby when i was a kid. basically what zelda & angelo's puppies would look like if they had puppies. it was heartbreaking because he came in, 6 weeks old, as a stray. still had a harness on. he grew out of it but since there was no owner around to take it off it was embedded in his skin. had to take it off and suture it up and put a whole bandage around his chest, poor guy. also heartbreaking because it made me miss angelo terribly. had his colors and errthang



i was super exhausted when i got home, which i like because it means i did something productive that day. alex gave me a leg massage while we watched grey's. GOD cristina is getting real annoying with her whole "omg, all i care about are surgeries. so cool, i don't have feelings, what is even bedside manner?" and meredith's whole...existing type of deal. i love izzie she's my fave. alex is starting to get on my nerves too like stay the heck out of ur patients' businesses my gosh.

we also watched the mindy project and HOLYS HIT like i was expecting them to do it all season but i honestly didn't think it was gonna be like so in ur face like so fast like no build up or tension whatsoever but then bam it happened and i cried and then it was like RETURNING APRIL 1ST ARE U KIDDING ME

my cuties

i studied chapter 3 in my pharmacology book and then went to my dad's to get the $100 greg was supposed to give me. we brought toad, he was so good on his car ride. we just harnessed him up, no crate, and we was just chillin on my lap purring. apparently he does better crate-less. even though he basically spent the first 6 weeks of his life living in one. we brought zelda too so she could play with her friend, missy, my dad's disgustingly well-groomed poodle. she's really soft and smells like coconuts because her mom baths her every 2 weeks. i should do that

we went to deposit my $100 and i found out i have even MORE money in my account because financial aid disbursed soooo like the idiots we are alex and i went to walmart and bought stuff we needed because hot cheetos are real important

went home, watched another episode of grey's, and fell asleep

Day 20 (1/20)

i should do this before i forget

so nothing really happened today at all. alex and i watched grey's until he had to go to work and i played pokemon a good chunk of the day, EV training my bisharp and re-EV training my gengar because i fucked it up the first time. greg came over to drop off my mom's christmas present (mickey mouse pajamers!!! apparently she had $100 too but greg "forgot") and we discussed pokemon for 15 minutes before he left

cuties



shut up i just love my animals

this game on NBC looks so fun what is thsi show??? hollywood game night ugh i spent like 15 minutes looking for the remote to figure that out


xoxo

Day 19 (01/19)

CRAP i need to tell myself to keep up with these. just 346 more days. get with the program

alex went to work in the morning and i stayed home and just did laundry and IV bred for a bisharp. we were supposed to go to san felipe to have dinner with alex's family after he got off work but ended up not because his dumb coworker ended up showing up to work an hour late, so alex had to stay an extra hour to pick up his slack and we ended up not going. here i am, sitting at home, dressed up, face made, starving because i wanted to make room for our dinner. nope, life doesn't work that way. so when he told me what was going down i got pissed and stuffed my face with nilla wafers. once he got home he offered to take me out somewhere and i was like well shit, i'm not hungry anymore. but we ended up going to nikki v's and i had a light pesto & prawns pasta since all their damn pizza had marinara sauce.

we got home and watched an episode of grey's anatomy and SNL from last night with drake. the disneyworld indiana jones skit was the best ever

for personal reminders: i had a panic attack before i went to bed. now my throat is sore from hyperventilating so hard hahaha wow

Day 18 (01/18)

hm today wasn't very eventful i guess i basically just had a really good caldo & avocado burrito alex made me for breakfast. we watched american horror story and late night, and then we sat on the couch and talked for a while. i hate those talks where i fall in love with him all over again. so dumb

he left for work and i spent all day breeding sneasels and taking dentistry notes. i had a brief moment thinking about my future and how i want to do something in entertainment while i was watching a kevin hart special and i thinking about how he's my favorite stand-up comedian. i mean he makes me laugh, not like other stand-up comedians i usually think are trying to hard and make it so obvious that someone wrote those jokes for them. and i was like "wow maybe i could be a writer for television, or just a writer. then maybe i could get my thoughts and opinions about life out there" but then ought nah. i don't have the motivation to even try to do anything in the entertainment industry, plus i feel like my opinions are irrelevant 99% of the time since nobODY LISTENS TO ME i'm so quiet. i think that's why i love the internet *caresses monitor* people are forced to read ur shit. but after getting into the vet tech field i'd like to do something on the side. i still miss acting. i think i'll worry about that later. i'm too overwhelmed by other shit right now. i'm sorry, this has nothing to do with my day

i took a super cute picture of toad tho

Day 17 (01/17)

today i did nothing!!!! alex and i went to the store and got some groceries. contemplated getting some valentines for my classmates. went home, alex cooked me the best omelette ever with leftover bean sprouts from last night's thai food, so flippin good!!!! then we went to life uniform so i could get some dumb interview "attire" for my dumb class on dumb wednesday. went home, we watched late night and parks & rec before he left for work. after he left i was gonna do my homework and play pokemon but then i realized my homework and 3DS were in my backpack and my backpack was in the car!! wow!!! so i cleaned the apartment a lil bit before mikaela picked me up to go to jess's. we all watched like 4 episodes of glee and just sat around drinking fresca and eating chips. i finished her texas puzzle thing that she didn't wanna do. that's about it. pretty chill day. chill dude. wow so chill.

chill

Day 16 (01/016)

so i had my clinicals. nothing interesting really, just spays and neuters like usual. a mass removal and a dental and a leg laceration along with a neuter "oh his leg is bleeding? while he's under let's cut off his balls as well!!!" a lot of lil puppy dogs today, including this girl


so flipPPIN CUTE. um i did a new thing, i just don't remember. during the dental i just watched for breathing since he had trouble probably due to his heart murmur which was only grade 2 but still. i never monitored at the shelter before ugh. so much pressure. i hate being responsible for a life. which is why i'll always hate anesthesia. we ended up doing 3 extractions of the mandibular incisors which were basically just rotting out anyway. 

i finally got the hang of intubating really fast and i've become a pro at drawing blood. i had to draw blood from a dog in its kennel for a hw test really fast without any alcohol and like NO visible vein and i got it first stick!!!

after clinicals i went to school where we did a snake/bird lab dissection. cici and i got a snake. i wanted to dissect this giant poisonous rattlesnake but amanda said that it probably wouldn't be a good idea since it had CAUTION all over the bag. i still think it would've been easier. i ended up pulling off our snake skin and that's what everyone else did too except for jess and mikaela. i collected everyone's snakeskin and asked if i could take them home and make earrings LOL amanda said she'd check to see if it's ok first and put it them in a bag. look how cute we are in our labcoats tho


me, cici, & mikaela. censored for reasons
my allergies started acting up for some reason and i went to pick alex up from his friend's house and went home. started feeling really bad by then so i took some claritin, watched parks & rec, and went to bed

Day 15 (01/15)

today was zelda's birthday!!!! unfortunately i was crazy busy so it's not like i had any time to do anything for her anyway.

i woke up and went to my optometrist appointment. turns out i have MULTIPLE corneal ulcers in BOTH eyes, so i was denied contact lenses. however i got a new prescription for glasses and prescription eye drops i have to take 4 times a day to smooth out my cornea since it looks like fuckin sandpaper. and i'll be light-sensitive my entire life so that's a thing. i have to come back in a week to see if i'm all good for contacts after taking the drops

ordered 2 pairs of glasses and went to my clinicals class we have a dumb resume project ugh. afterwards i went back to eyemart to pick them up. then i went to my pharmacology class and had a quiz i probably sucked at as well. we had exotics afterwards and talked about avian A&P, stuff i already knew because i'm awesome as heck. now i'm home

i felt pretty antisocial today but like i said i'm getting pretty near sick of everyone. i'm gonna find something to eat and idk watch tv for the rest of the day. i'm grumpy

Day 14 (01/14)

wow ok i' mso tired i'll try to remember everything

this morning i woke up hella late so i showed up to my clinicals at 9 :-( so i stayed until 5. it was so busy!!!!

well hmm a lot of surgeries as usual, i did my first skin scraping on a dog!!!! hmmm there was a helicopter at the fire academy next door that the clinic got really excited about because we've never seen a helicopter take off and land so close by. i guess that's cool. what else. had to spay a dog in heat, was a bloody mess so we did a belly bandage after surgery which was kinda cool. i gave boosters to a bunch of animals and i didn't poke the needle through the skin once!! i attempted to intubate a cat but it's hard as hell. isaac expressed the bladder on that same cat and the pee went everywhere including my scrub top and all up my arm. wonderful. we ear-tipped a feral cat and removed a cherry eye on both eyes of a chihuahua.

my favorite patient of the day was this guy

bubba!
all we did was do a heartworm test and give a rabies vaccine, but when i was taking him back to his kennel someone was already trying to adopt him. so i took him to the bonding area and it turns out the guy actually did adopt him!! so that's cool. i would've totally adopted him if it weren't for such a tiny apartment. alex loves boston terriers

and i got to play with this lil kitten all day! she reminded me so much of toad i loved her so much

babcat!

and i didn't wanna touch this guy, he's a hydrocephalic chihuahua and they don't live that long. last hydro i saw was at a different clinic and we ended up having to euthanize when he was 8 months old. sucks but that's life

i don't know his name

lol and then i gave booster vaccines to all the dogs and cats that needed them, except for the ones that had CAUTION or BITE CASE written on their cage card. fuck that shit. these were my faves


the one on the left's name is lil boo and she was cross eyed!!! she came in with 8 other cats. their owner just died and i guess nobody else would take them :-( i don't know the one on the right but i'm calling him batman. he was just cute

OH i just realized u can include videos. there was this cat named SHAQUIBA and had this weird meow, but she was such a sweet kitty aw





alex picked me up and we went home briefly so i could change and then we went to elephant bar for dinner. our waiter was silly. after dinner we went to see american hustle. see what the whole hubbubabubu was about. it was a lil bit confusing to me at first but dang did it actually turn out good. i don't get how the flip jlaw was even nominated for that golden globe in the first place tbh. she was hilarious as heck but her performance wasn't really award-worthy.

now we're home and my feet hurt i'm gonna sleep FOREVER

Day 13 (01/13)

wow!!! so it took me a full on hour to drive to main campus to get my last textbook this morning. do you know why????? 3 accidents on my way over there. THREE. i don't know why it's so hard for people in albuquerque to drive.

once i got to school we had our dentistry class. ugh nothing interesting happened today. we just passed around dental instruments and learned the names of them and what they're used for. during supp lab we reviewed parasites (i'm the parasite QUEEN) and during pharmacology went over some shit in chapter 1 that our instructor accidentally skipped last week and then finished appendix F. we were supposed to start chapter 2 today. which means we're crazy behind as a class. i've already started taking notes of chapter 2 in the book so i feel pretty okie dokie

wow well i interneted, did homework......i wanna watch late night tonight but it doesn't come on until 12:30 and i wanted to go to sleep early because i have clinicals early tomorrow morning. i do have a starbucks double-shot prepared.... is jimmy fallon worth risking being exhausted on an 8 hour work day??? stay tuned

Day 12 (01/12)

well i'm just really bad at this aren't i

so lemme try to remember...yesterday i woke up and cleaned the apartment. just so u know i clean the apartment like every day i don't know i hate any sort of mess, ever. then i made 3 pumpkin pies!!! i just felt like it. thanks for reminding me i have pumpkin pie in the refrigerator, 365 blog.

alex came home from work and then mikaela came over to do our goat/sheep parasite thing (that nobody else ended up doing!!) and to watch the golden globes. but first we went to the store to get snackies and champagne. so we did, and i got really buzzed off 2 glasses -_- but the golden globes were pretty much bullshit apparently. 12 years a slave got robbed, even though i never saw it, it's gotten really good reviews but they only won best drama film. leo finally won a golden globe!!! after like 8 years!!!! i think his last one was in 2005? then diddy tried kissing bono's cheek but got rejected, and i dunno if i was the only one that noticed that cause nobody else is talking about it. jennifer lawrence, idk, she annoys me, i don't like her. all my other friends do so i try not to say anything about how much she annoys me. typical awkward white girl. breaking bad got 2 golden globes and that was the closest i got to tears. jimmy fallon presented that basically made my entire night. damn how could i forget randy?! i flippin love amy poehler. still dunno about tina fey. sometimes i love her sometimes i'm neutral. it was basically an SNL reunion god bless

i'm sorry this is all about the golden globes i'm just really passionate about award shows. i wish i saw more of the movies that were nominated though, the only one i really saw was wolf of wall street and frozen lol

okay, bye

Day 11 (01/11)

hay guys i forgot about this last night

so i didn't really do much. alex had a daytime shift so he wasn't home when i woke up. basically i just cleaned the apartment and did most of my homework all day. finished my bird breed project in like 2 seconds. uggh. pretty boring day. hung out with my favorite bitch.



alex came home and i got ready and i took him to watch wolf of wall street since it was nominated for a bunch of globes and i was like man, i haven't seen any of these nominated movies!!!!! i needed to see at least one. so we did. it was kinda gross. some of it was funny but mostly gross. the entire movie was just drugs, orgies, and money. crossing my fingers for leo to win an oscar this year.

afterwards we got mcdonalds since everywhere else was closed (the movie ended at 11...longass movie) and went home and watched american horror story while we ate. then i got tired and went to bed

Day 10 (01/10)

today was probably the worst day of 2014 by far i had to get out of bed at 4:30am to attend a 4 hour lecture at a lab animal research center about how they care for their animals and what exactly they're doing with them and fucking FDA PROTOCOLS seriously the most boring shit on the planet i mean at least they had krispy kreme and coffee but the coffee made me want to pee so bad and i couldn't just get up and go to the bathroom, since it's like a high security place. a staff member had to escort us as a group so i literally had to wait for them to tell me i could use the restroom uGH i needed to pee so bad i started drawing pictures about needing to go pee

mine & mikaela's notes at the top

after the lecture they gave us like a 15 minute tour where they talked more about what they did with the rats and mice and for a brief 12 seconds after i heard about how much they get paid i was like "hm maybe i could work here" but no. no i can't. not worth it.

went home afterwards and during the tour my right eye was just burning, which it has been doing for a couple days so i went to the optometrist and scheduled an appointment for wednesday (zelda's birthday!!). went to petsmart to get some dog food, went home and watched the mindy project with alex before he left for work.

after he left i took a nap for an hour, woke up and started straightening out the apartment a lil bit. i tumblred a lil bit and now i'm rewriting my pharmacology notes and afterwards i'll figure out what other things i need to get done on blackboard since i left my backpack in the car :-(

Day 9 (01/09)

man did i do a lot today!!!!!!!

well i had clinicals again. i only stayed for 4 hours this time but still was able to be present for all the surgeries. i also had to set up all the sick animal's medications and administer them to all the kennel dogs and cats. that's like 20 or so dogs and cats!!!!! shelter medicine!!!!! so i made rounds and gave a bunch of oral medications and some injections.

i induced some dogs with IV injections for the first time today!!! i'm used to IM induction agents in private practices so it was kinda cool. gave a bunch of rabies vaccines and microchips and intubated a bunch and scrubbed and wow i hate shaving for neuters!!!! hung out with a lot of puppies as they were waking up for surgery...and yeeeah. there was a lil siamese kitten named topaz that was just the cutest flippin thing ever

anyways. afterwards i drove to school and got some green chile cheese fries on the way from twisters. ate those and played pokemon while i waited for class to start. it was a rabbit lab. so we got a 3 hour lecture on the care of rabbits and then gave physical exams to rabbits in the last hour. we sexed them (mikaela and donna rae and cici all thought our rabbit was a girl but I WAS RIGHT IT WAS A BOY), we checked their ears, malocclusion on their teeth, their eyes, heart rate, temperature, gave oral medications, and cleaned out their anal glands. this was mine & mikaela's patient for the day!!!

jack jack the bun bun

he was perfectly healthy everywhere. our perfect lil bun bun. u can imagine my allergies after the lab.

after school i drove home and alex and i laid in bed so i could rest my eyes for a lil bit. when we woke up we left and alex dropped me off at this house mikaela is house sitting to watch glee while he went to his friend's place. some bigass house. rich people. they had all sorts of food. THEY HAD IZZE i haven't had that since high school!!!! apparently her friend's grandpa owns trojan condoms. afterwards i had some heart sprinkles. drove home with jess, and now alex and i are gonna catch up on some TV shows

see, i do have a life sometimes

i have to wake up at 5am tomorrow. bye

Day 8 (01/08)

today i hit the snooze button for 3 hours!!! it felt so good!!!! i didn't have school until 12:30. this is gonna happen every wednesday.

i showed up there about an hour early anyway to bring justine my dentistry book to study off of but APPARENTLY she already was studying off someone else's book because all my other friends were there so NEVERMIND!!!!!! our first class was clinicals umm basically just went over the syllabus. then we had a one hour break and i just had ramen and played pokemon. bred some eevees. still can't get a 5 fuckin IV eevee. i couldn't breed my lucario and eevee for some reason even though they're the same egg group? wow. i just realized it's because my lucario and my eevee are both male. flippin heck i'll try again after writing this.

we had pharmacology and our first pharmacology quiz i effin bombed. "Who is Aesculapius and what is his significance?" my literal answer: he made the V snake medical symbol thing. it's the caduceus! yeah. apparently i studied the wrong flippin thing. when am i gonna utilize this information?

[in surgery]
doctor: QUICK I HAVE TO CLOSE THIS INCISION, WHAT WAS THE FIRST VETERINARY COLLEGE IN AMERICA AND WHEN WAS IT FOUNDED
me: I DON'T KNOW
doctor: ANGELICA THIS PATIENT'S PULSE OX IS DECLINING I NEED TO KNOW NOW

this is never gonna happen!!!!!!! omg!!!!! at least i'll be okay for next week's quiz because that's what i actually studied for

we had another one hour break where we just gathered around the microwave and my friends talked about going to vegas while i hung out on tumblr. talked to amanda about the kittens. uggh a lot of talking today i apologize. lol this girl then later asked what we were talking to amanda about and i told her we were talking shit. i don't know if she was pissed about it or what but i was joking. dang, sucks that i can't talk without at least one person hating me but that's life i guess.

then we had out first exotics class, exciting!!! we watched the elephant in the room on netflix and now i have to write what i thought about it. tomorrow is our 2nd exotics class and it's rabbit day. spoiler alert: i'm allergic to rabbits

i dunno. by the end of the day i was super annoyed and done with everything. i can already tell i'm gonna be super annoyed by everyone by the end of the semester and glad i won't have to see any of them ever again. sometimes i wish i could just tell people "don't talk to me" without sounding ruder than i already do 99% of the time

now i'm home and i gotta feed the animals and research exactly about how much drano i have to consume to die

Day 7 (01/07)

today was my first day at my new clinicals!!! it was at an animal shelter so i don't get to do appointments. but we did do a lot of surgeries. had about 12 spays & neuters, which is a lot less than i expected, then again the first spay took a while because the dog's had puppies before and she just got out of heat, so she was a bit hemorrhagic. when i expressed her bladder some blood clots came out so that's a thing. i spent a lot of time playing with a lil chihuahua named tupac!! coincidentally it was in there because it had been shot by bbs in a couple different places. fuckin albuquerque man. then there was a cocker spaniel we neutered that looked like angelo that i LOVED. he seemed to only warm up to me cause he tried biting everyone else. i'm officially the cocker spaniel whisperer!!! he kept chewing at his incision so we put on a cone of shame. pobresito.

a stray 3 month old kitten came in that wasn't moving much, had some oral ulcerations, wasn't taking any water or food so we gave it subcutaneous fluids and nutri-cal. after receiving fluids it got up and looked around and meowed at us for a while so we just put him in a kennel with a heating bag. when we went to go check up on him he was straight up dead. poor kitty. ended up sending him off to VDS and i named him biggie smalls because he came in and died without a name. we needed a biggie smalls to match our tupac ok

after lunch nothing really went on, we ended up cleaning the whole clinic and made rounds in the cattery to see if everyone was doing well. i was so distracted by this one though. so pretty. i want all the cats


once we were done with that, the tech i was shadowing started quizzing us on veterinary trivia. i was there with a couple students from other schools so it was like a competition. i ended up answering everything!!! i'm so glad i'm the one getting the cheaper but superior education!!!!! unless i'm just smart as hell. except how do you not know the signs of bordetella and URI? u fuckin dummy

alex picked me up and i came home to packages!!! my leather jacket i ordered with some cheap yellow heart earrings that look super cute on me and thESE FUCKIN THINGS FROM TIA i'm so happy i love them so much i'm gonna show them off to everyone at school tomorrow


anyways i tried to collapse on the couch but then alex tickle-forced me to start studying so i studied the first chapter of pharmacology. now we're gonna go watch tv and even tho it's still hella early 7:00 i'm fuckin wiped out i'll probably pass out in the middle of watching grey's anatomy

tune in next time on jello 3-6-5!!!!!

Day 6 (01/06)

hey guys today was my first day of school for my last semester of school!!! ever!!!! maybe

i was planning on getting my pharmacology book at main campus before school but i couldn't because i didn't have enough time, but i had enough time to sit outside of my dentistry class by myself to get 10 minutes of peace to play pokemon!!!!! that didn't last long cause my teacher creeped up on me and was like "THE LATER REGISTRAR!!!" i was like hi??? and then we spent the first 30 minutes of class of listening to my instructor talk to herself. which isn't anything new. basically wasted time for 3 hours and briefly going over the powerpoint.

supp lab was just talking about the exams we have to take to be licensed vet techs (state board and national exam) and what we're gonna do during our supp lab sessions (it's basically like a study hall class). i volunteered to do a sheep & goat host parasite info thing. i wanted to get my pharmacology book afterwards but still didn't have enough time ugh.

during my 1 hour break i had lunch and played more pokemon while cici sat next to me and studied. jess and mikaela went out for lunch and when they came back jess came back with our christmas presesnts!!! what!!!! we all got matching cups aww. so cute here's mine!!!!


cici had also brought us stuff. chapstick and body wash and shampoo and lotion. i feel bad i didn't get anyone anything :-( mikaela said she got me something and tia's present is coming in the mail tomorrow. man i'm the worst friend

in pharmacology, our teacher just basically told the rest of the students who weren't in supp lab everything she told us about the VTNE. should've just signed up for supp lab so you don't waste my flippin time guys!!!!!!! ended up going over part of the chapter 1 powerpoint in the last 5 minutes of class UGH. so dumb. 

one of my cohort members ok story time: so last semester during our exotics lecture, she mentioned a radiograph we saw earlier in the program of a snake that swallowed lightbulbs and she asked "how would the snake unscrew the lightbulb?" oh my god. she was so embarrassed. then she showed us today an ornament her friend made her and i died



hmmm i got home and picked alex up to take him to work at 5 and i just really fuckin want my pharmacology book so i was like HURRY I HAVE TO GET MY BOOK and rushed him out and we ended up showing up at the bookstore 5 minutes before it closed so i got my book finally!!! over there i ran into one of my classmates that failed out of the program. kinda awkward but she wanted to talk to me. alex had to be at work in 10 minutes so i had to be like sorry i gotta go SUCKER bye

dropped him off at work, got home, studied for dentistry, typed up my goal summary. got distracted by tumblr. and now i'm here. i gotta study for pharmacology now. i have clinicals at an animal shelter tomorrow morning omfg. nervous!!! but it'll make for a cool 365 thing

OH and i cut my long ass nails today. i was thinking of keeping them long because chances are my clinical site won't notice, but then i thought about grey's anatomy and what if i pop the glove with my long ass nail???? what if i cut a patient's heart open by accident and they die???? 

ok thanks bye

Day 5 (01/05)

alright guys let's do this

i did literally nothing today. literally nothing. alex and i woke up early to go to the planetarium with mikaela and jess, and right after i got out of the shower jess texted me that she wasn't feeling well. which is good i guess because my period is killing me anyway and alex still doesn't feel well. oh i finally got my period guys!!!!!

so instead we watched grey's anatomy until alex left for work, and then i took a 2 hour nap and then woke up and played pokemon. i wondertraded my faultily bred eevees and got a lucario with pokerus and flipped out. i called wesley asking what do???? and then i just put it in my box cause i don't feel like dealing right now

uuuugh so0o0o0o yeah, alex got home from work, vented to me like he always does, and now i'm about to go to bed. school tomorrow guise. dentistry & pharmacology, woo

toad was being especially affectionate today. my handsome lil puppinn

Day 4 (01/04)

oh man i almost forgot about this!!!

well it was a pretty uneventful day. alex and i are both not feeling well. i'm on my period and he's had headaches and diarrhea and i'm pretty sure someone at his work gave it to him cause people don't know how to take care of themselves!!

i woke up and just started playing pokemon because i finally found someone with ditto safari. so fuck yeah breeding. ended up catching 7 dittos with different natures so i'm on my way to making a strong sylveon and umbreon. oh man. i took a break to watch an episode of grey's anatomy. you know what??? meredith grey is fucking annoying. not everything is about you meredith!!! and entire episode about other people and she still made it about her. so annoying. my clinical location finally called me back and i'm working 8-4 tuesdays and 8-12 thursdays. i hope it's not as bad as i'm dreading it'll be.

i battled wesley's shiny party. his glaceon effed me up. so strong. such power. then i battled him again and ended up winning.

alex and i walked to the mailbox together in the freezing cold to get the mail. when i got back home i called wesley and we talked about pokerus and him losing his job at disneyland wtf!!!!! such a dumb reason too. sucks man. he complained about me not talking to him as much anymore when i try to all the time????? we just talked about pokemon mostly

alex and i went to albertsons to get stuff for dinner but ended up doing a whole grocery shopping spree instead. got home and he made roast chicken with mashed potatoes and gravy with kale and biscuits. oh my god so good and we still have leftovers i can bring to school. so excited

watched a couple more episodes of grey's anatomy and played more pokemon. i'm actually hanging out with friends tomorrow at least tomorrow's thing will be cooler

my nails are really long. i'm gonna be so sad when i have to cut them :-(

Day 3 (01/03)

how was mY DAY?????

well. i woke up to go to school AGAIN to get my books. o man. have i got some stuff to tell u

so i got my dentistry and large animal procedures books but my exotics and my pharmacology books weren't in so then i took pictures of the ISBN so that the lady can copy it down on the pre-order form (because i've gone through this fuckin routine for the last 4 semesters because they never order enough books. there are 17 people in this program!!!!!!! all u have to do is order 17 copies of the same book!!!! it's common flippin sense!!!!) and when i showed it to her she was like "ok, NEVER take pictures of stuff in the bookstore because it is considered copyright and you could get arrested for it." listen here lady, i've done this every semester and you're the first person who's had a dang problem. anyways she completely ignored what i took a picture of to make HER job easier and she went to the other side of the store to copy it down herself. wow. excuse me.  *sigourney weaver in disney's "holes" voice* excUUuUUuUuUSUe me

so when i finally dealt with HER i checked my books out (by another bookstore bitch who's criticized me before that the vet tech program is pointless. srsly why is everyone who works at the bookstore so rude???) anyways. alex ran some errands while i stayed in the car reading the first chapter of my dentistry book. went back home, had a tasty breakfast alex made with scrambled eggs+broccoli and onion mushroom potatoes and toast. watched like 3 episodes of grey's anatomy. alex just kept hitting "NEXT EPISODE." idk about u but i cannot sit for 3 hours watching the same thing no matter how much i like it. i have to take breaks. but he kept hitting next. i freaked out after he almost went to watch the 4th episode in a row and i was like wow, i'm gonna play pokemon!!!!! he apologized and just started watching x files (that's his show that he watches when i don't feel like watching tv and he does)

so he left for work and i continued playing pokemon. i finished the game. beat the pokemon league in all 1 hit KOs on every pokemon. swaggity. the game is actually ridiculously easy probably because of the exp share. now idk what to do. catch pokemon?? IV breed??? EV train??? who knows

i cleaned the dark spots off the carpet and it looks a lot better. vacuumed and cleaned a lil and yeah now i'm just figuring out what to do. probably gonna do the 1st chapter review then read the 2nd chapter of my dentistry book. tbh i'm probably never gonna touch my large animal book because the only large animals i care about are goats HAHAHAH i just want my exotics book already, damn it

my kitty perch bein useful

Day 2 (01/02)

today was my older sister's birthday but i didn't say anything because she's been annoying on facebook so just to spite her i didn't say anything

ugggh ok so i woke up early at 8:30 wow!!!! went to the financial aid office to figure out why the heck i can't register for my classes and guess why because dumb people don't know how to do their jobs so now i have to wait until tomorrow to get my books. hmmm so after we went to java joe's and had some coffee and a breakfast burrito. note to self: stop ordering JJ's green chile!! damn!!! that shit is HOT

went home, watched 2 episodes of grey's. i finished the first season!! then i took a nap until 4:30, and just been playing pokemon and watching the news and internetting, keeping toad out of trouble, all that stuff

thought about chugging this whole thing then remembered my
period is coming soon and that's probably not the best idea in the world

haha the news behind me keeps talking about denver's marijuana laws, but they keep calling it THE CANNABIS

so new years started out at gecko's, with my new years kiss from alex and real expensive high-end champagne from champagne in france, not that sparkling wine shit. real cool. felt real classy. drove home fine. got home and had a couple shots of vodka and fell asleep, woke up with a pounding headache and just feeling real bad.

ugggh so i got ready while alex made french toast for breakfast and then we went out to do some stuff. went to alex's work to pick up his tips, then to best buy and we got a digital antenna for our tv so we can watch SNL and awards show LIVE it's almost awards season people!!!!!!! and then went to verizon to figure out plans for when alex and i ditch the heck out of t-mobile and sprint
