Nursing School Information Session:
Registered for classes, need to do a whole bunch of other stuff now, got a whole tree's worth of paperwork. I'll keep updating on what's going on, but underneath my stressed-out face, I'm super freaking excited. Especially about my stethoscope :-D

In other news:
Why don't I have stitch markers or other cool things? Oh right, birthday presents :-)

Question for YOU:
Which stethoscope should I get? This one, this one, or one of these? They all perform EXACTLY the same, the colors are just different. Help me decide soon; it's going to be a birthday present from my grandma :-)
