Late Hours at LAC-USC
ByThese past two weeks have been spent working late hours at the LAC-USC Medical Center in Los Angeles. The clinical rotations at the County hospital are really great. The only problem is that there are not too much sleeping going on these past few weeks. If you recall I just finished up November at Harbor UCLA. Now that place is a work dogs paradise and coming to LAC-USC is a little bit of a slow down except that I am working over this week because of the great surgical cases that are coming up later in the evening.
For those that do read this little blog you will have to forgive me a bit for talking about what is happening around here once and a while. Usually I try to keep things here at ‘The Average Man’ focused on general subjects and not on strictly personal narrative. That can be so boring to read and very tedious to write. I never was much for “diary writing” you know…too much of a girly thing it seems to me. Back to the point of this post. Now that I am doing senior rotations as a nurse anesthetist student the cases that I am getting are more complex and for the most part I am doing them by myself. Now that is very cool. After all of the hard work, studying and preparing for this adventure of becoming a nurse anesthetist it is all paying off finally. I am so happy these days doing good work and really performing well in a difficult nursing specialty. Enough of this.
In the next week or so I have a few plans. A few subjects have been interesting me and I wanted to discuss them with those that are interested. After getting a message from Ruben about a google search he did I followed up with a little inquiry of my own. In google.com try searching for “The Average man” and see what comes up. You would be amazed at the links. There is even another blog with a similar title, “Thoughts of An Average Man” or something like that. Some bloke in England it seems had a brainstorm and came up with an idea for his blog. Anyway, I am going to be exploring what it means to be An Average Man. I am sure that you have been wondering all about this for a while now and it seems that the time has come to explain all. Stay tuned for the next adventure in the Average Man.
