crazy Tuesday

Today was the orientation at my externship site. We got a huge packet of manuals and forms. It was kinda exciting to be at the orientation because I'm finally starting my externship! I mean, I'm bit scared about starting intake interviews from next Monday but I'm definitely excited about being able to do some clinical training at last. We were assigned to one of the three inpatient units. I really wanted General/adolescent unit because my primary clinical interest is in child/adolescent. But instead, I was assigned to Geropsychiatric, which is the complete opposite of child/adolescent (age-wise). Oh, well.

After class, I met up with Travis and Yodee at B&N and had dinner at Republic. I ordered this vegetable soup noodle, and it didn't taste good. :-( what a disappointment. I've heard people talking good things about Republic but I think it's overrated. It's kinda trendy and cool inside of the restaurant but the food wasn't that great.

Then, I met up with Dave, Yayoi's friend, who recently moved to NYC. We've been trying to set up a time to meet for the last few weeks and we finally got to meet. Anyway, his friend was playing at this bar in E. Village, so we decided to meet there tonight. Well, he was super, super funny. I don't know...maybe the way he talks? Travis and Yodee came along with me to meet Dave, and we all were laughing so hard because he was sooooooo funny. He's the kind of person you want to have when you are having a get-together with friends. He probably would never bore people because he has soooo many funny stories to tell.

Anyway, the funny thing was, Dave said that he was in town when Yayoi was visiting NYC this past spring. How come I didn't meet him? Ahhh...maybe because I was sick in bed when Yayoi's sister had a party! hm. interesting.

Ok, gotta go to bed now. busy day ahead of me!
