The Placement is Done

Its been awhile! I’ve been so busy with school this past week. The seven week pharmacy placement is over and I had a huge report to submit at the end of this past week. So, that was due yesterday. I had been working on it throughout the seven weeks and I was impressed with my lack of procrastination. Plus, on the eve of the due data I enlisted Danielle to assist me with some Excel work – that was helpful. Anyway, I had the project bound at the university print shop yesterday and it turned out great.

The seven weeks were really helpful. School is so detached from actually practicing pharmacy so it was nice to get out in the field. I will probably end up working at that pharmacy at some point in the near future.

On my last day at the pharmacy I was down in the compounding lab milling some lassar’s paste when this ancient pharmacy assistant came into the lab. He started showing me some of the different flavorings they had for the compounds – I think just to hear himself speak. Anyway, on the shelf he came across some perfume that one of the pharmacist’s had “made”. Well, he got me to sample this nasty perfume on my hand because smelling it out of the bottle wasn’t good enough for him. This “perfume” smelled awful and I could not get the odor off my hand for hours even after constant washing. Nasty!
