I scrub up well

Last week one of my best friends who I've known since playgroup turned 21 and her Mum threw her a surprise party to celebrate.

I've never been part of a surprise party before so it was very exciting, and even better the party was doctor/nurse/patient themed since my friend is training to be a nurse.

Which meant I got to wear my scrubs. But when I put them on this happened...

They're way too big! I also put my put on my Mum's imitation crocs from IKEA but they made me feel ill just having them on my feet. I am not a fan of crocs.

But never mind because changed into my second scrubs top. Yes, I have two, because I'm cool like that and am a pretty big fan of medical tv shows. 

Here I am with some fellow doctors at the party.

And here's the birthday girl, sitting on a wheelchair with a bandage round her head and arms. Classic

In Scrubs related news, I went to see Ted's band from Scrubs, aka The Blanks, last week and they were amazing!

If you haven't seen this clip of them on Radio 1 I suggest you do so right now.

Ok, I'm off to hand in all my work for assessment now, let's hope they like it.

I didn't know how to make a mini George Clooney

This is how I've finished the miniature hospital room for assessment, though there are a lot of things I could add to it.

The hospital bed is almost all made of wooden kebab sticks painted silver.

Please take a moment to appreciate the hand-Sharpied floor.

...beep...beep...beep...

Making a miniature blood bag is not easy.

Is there a doctor in the house??

If you've seen this you probably won't be surprised to learn that the miniature scene I'm currently making is a hospital room. An ER room to be exact.

It's not completely finished yet but here are some sneak peaks.

Blood vials, syringes and other supplies.

A sink and tap, and check out those blinds.

And my favourite part, the phone. It's very similar to the one on ER in the first series. Ive been using a behind-the-scenes book as reference.

ER

I'm a big fan of medical tv shows; ER, Grey's Anatomy, House, Casualty, Scrubs, and I get a little involved...

I've got two sets of scrubs (thank you NBC store and my sister's medical student friend), a stethoscope...

...and a plush syringe.

When ER finished last May I made a syringe in honour of the occasion out of felt and a silver pipe cleaner. My sister and I watched the last episode wearing my scrubs and posing with the syringe in the ad breaks.

Fun times!
