Trying to maintain at least one post a month!

Wow this blog is getting very dusty....and so are my writing skills!

So what has been happening? Well March was busy with the first PGTC assignment, April has been rather busy with weddings and other social things, and May is looking to be rather busy with 21sts and PGTC assignment B (which hopefully will be over soon, since my preceptor wants to cram 5 weeks' worth of prac assessments into 3!) Anyway this year is flying past, I'm rather scared I'll come to the end of all this training and suddenly find myself a pharmacist who doesn't know anything! Surprisingly, half of what I do at the moment at work is quite brainless, which is a bit worrying, really...

Retail pharmacy is a strange balance between an exercise in marketing and providing healthcare...I mean, am I trying to sell something, or give health advice? There are pharmacists at both extremes, sometimes I feel like I don't have the skills to do either very well, so I'm kind of stuck in the middle.

Hmmm...

Hehe, one post a month aye? Stretching it a bit with the last two, but then I guess it's better than nothing... ;)

I think that work is going to be a never ending cycle of not knowing enough...

Although that may not really be encouraging to your current state of mind I think it will be somewhat exciting to be in a continual cycle of learning...

Hi hi!

Just writing to say I hope you had a great birthday. I know I'm rather late, but happy birthday! I'm sure I'll see you around soon.
