It's been ages since the last time I logged on...
I shouldn't even be on here, considering the papers and outlines that I have to work on, but I really needed a break from insanity. There are so many things I'm lamenting, but oddly enough, I actually enjoy the work I do at the clinical sites...
Nursing school is no big joke. It's not just about being compassionate, patient, and caring; It requires so much energy, time, and critical thinking. And at the moment, I feel as though I've already maxed out my full brain power. After three back-to-back projects, an exam, and various other brain-stimulating activities and what-not, I feel as though I've gone through a whole decade of school. The unbelievable thing about this? It's only the
first quarter.
Fall quarter ends in two weeks. It feels so very far away...
At the very moment, I lament the fact that:
1. I have no social life outside of school.
2. The only friends I hang out with are my nursing school classmates.
3. My hours of sleep have dwindled down to a mere hour or two.
I wish the end of the quarter would come sooner, but then again, I have to overcome three finals before I enter winter vacation.
