spring break!!!

*forgot to finish this awhile ago....so I just finished it off and posted it now instead....*

My last test was this morning so now my brain is shut off and I'm essentially on spring break! I do have a couple days more of classes, but who cares? I don't have to study! No more library time for over a week! *sigh* It's a beautiful thing. Whoever invented spring break is a genius. Plus it's getting warmer out this week! Yay! I'm so excited to go home for break and see the family & friends that I never have time to visit anymore. I literally can't come home on the weekends anymore because they're not real 'weekends'....just extra study time. So yeah, it'll be really exciting to be home and just recharge for the rest of the semester. I don't even have a ton of stuff planned, I'm just excited to have the freedom to join in on whatever comes up instead of constantly worrying about studying. (Although I'll still try to get caught up on Chemo & P'col lectures before I get back.) And I can sleep as much as I want!!! Sleep = amazing, and I hardly ever get the full 8 hours I need. Yep, I'm one of those people. I seriously can't function fully on less than 8 (maybe 7) hours of sleep. Never in my life have I pulled a real all-nighter, and I don't plan on it cuz I physically couldn't. But anyways, not the point. The point is that I'm done and I finally get to treat myself to some rest & relaxation!!!

In other news, I went to a pharmacy convention & exposition for the Michigan Pharmacists Association this past weekend in Detroit. It was a fun group of my peers that went, and it was especially awesome to get to listen to Continuing Education (CE) presentations without taking notes or being tested!! Plus I got lotsa great food for free!! AND there was a STARBUCKS down on the first floor! Yummmm. Got some interesting free stuff too - my own pill counter, a practice insulin pen (filled w/ saline), a computer duster, and a slinky! lol. There was drug-related stuff too, but those were the oddball things I managed to snag. So, bottom line, the conference was fun & informative, and I got nifty free stuff! I think I'll go back next year! hehe :oP
