So, let's see......I have 4 days of classes, 2 clinical days, 1 hospital simulation skills test, 1 holistic, and a TON of reading and studying and concept maps and clinical evaluations to do for my 3 finals!
But then I will be done with my first semester of Nursing school!! The sound of that is just not registering. I just STARTED nursing school, how is a quarter of it already over? It's just craziness. I feel stress that comes from the end of the semester madness, but it all will get done one way or another, I know.
I am really looking forward to a month of no studying, actually having this thing called "free time" that everyone else seems to have. I am working a couple more days a week at work, but it will be much easier to tolerate than 4 hour lectures!!
Today has been exhausting. We had a test in our Nursing roles call, then 3 hours of lecture. Then 4 hours of skill carnival. Skill carnival is where there are 10 stations set up, and groups of 3 rotate and do each skill that is on our list that we may be tested on next week. It was like a mock simulation....which is helpful. It also reminded me that I rock at head-to-toe assessments so far, :). There are still things I need to practice, but I do feel better about my skill test next week. I also have a nearly 4 hour gap between lecture and my skills test where I can go home and do some last minute practicing before my test.
So anyway, I just gotta do some hustling to finish up the loose ends of this semester, Rock my skills test, and finish out this clinical rotation....and then I can relax.
And when that comes, I plan on getting a pedicure and manicure......maybe even a facial. I need pampering, lol.
