How do people do this??

Today, was the first day I have been up earlier than 9:30 in 2 1/2 months! Talk about rough. So tired. Last night, I tried on my uniform and realized that I needed khaki pants so at 9pm on a Sunday night, I went to look for the worst thing in all of womans fashion. I found some (at target) but after wearing them today found a renewed hatred for those awful things. I just don't understand why they can't just make khaki's like they make jeans, it cannot be that difficult. I mean literally, I have had enough extra fabric in the thighs and length of the khakis to make awhole other pair. Geez...

So, besides the whole khaki saga, the first day of my career was rather uneventful. I made my way to orientation, leaving an hour early and guess what?, I got there 45 minutes early. I walked in to the room and it was a windowless room with about a hundred chairs and classical music playing. Now whoever thought that putting 75, newly employed people (which means they have probably been sitting on their butts for a bit)  in a hot, room while playing soothing, classical music was not thinking too clearly. But once the classical music ended, it was ok. I learned so much about hospital and I really think it is going to be a great place to work. They are really dedicated to following their mission and I was shocked when they encouraged us to pray with the patients!

I am so excited to get started in the career that I feel like I've been working towards for the majority of my life. OT has brought me quite alot of happiness in life in the last years. Through OT school, I gained some awesome friends who I absolutely loved hanging out with this weekend. So fun to be with people who have similar senses of humor and interests. OT has provided me with a seemingly great job that might just be perfect for me. OT has taught me more about myself through the struggles and triumphts in school. OT has also provided me with a passion to help people with disabilities in other countries. And all these blessings propell me to the realization that God has been leading me into a career that is perfect for me! And best part of OT, I get to do crafts!

Here are some pictures of the SUNBURST! mirrors that I made.
