Ok, I just completed my 4th week of nursing school. I haven't bought anything for myself that wasn't coffee or school related.....and it was driving me a little bonkers. I know, I know, I know, shopping when you are stressed is a dangerous thing, but sometimes a girl just has to give in! I have been studying a lot, and so far I have done well on my tests....and I seriously contemplated it before I went, it wasn't a spur of the moment decision. I felt pretty torn about taking the time to go to the mall away from study time.
So anyway, it didn't help at all that I happened to get a coupon for my favorite store in the world, Coach. Shopping at Coach with a coupon is WAY better than shopping at Coach without one. And I consider that being as thrifty as I can be without constantly stalking the outlet that is 45 minutes away in good traffic.
So, this shopping is nursing related because I'm adding it to the list of inappropriate coping mechanisms r/t nursing school. This will be my last shopping trip for a while because school is about to get downright nuts in a few weeks with clinicals starting, and I will be way too busy to even think about nice new shiny things that get brought out to you in a gift box with a pretty ribbon tied around it.
Oh, and I picked up from eye cream from Clinique to help ward off the tired eye look that I am starting to fear will become permanent. I'm 26 and need to start thinking about the future well-being off my skin. So, this is nursing school related as well, because I think nursing school is going to age me far more than 2 years for some reason!
Alright, its time to go to sleep so I can wake up bright and early and get cracking on more studying!!
