What A Lazy Day!!

I was soooo productive yesterday. I got all of my reading for Psych and Pharm for next week done yesterday. So, today, I thought I'd knock Phys Assess out early and then have the whole day to start preparing for Psych! So.......um.....yeah, that didn't happen. I tried listening to my girl Ingrid Michaelson, but I kept singing along to her. I tried some Robin Thicke, didn't work either. Lady Gaga didn't help, and neither did my long-time favorite Janet Jackson. So.....I was lazy, but then around 3:00 I got down to business for the most part listening to my Jack Johnson. He always gets me through a jam, I swear!

I finally got a copy of the Med-Surg syllabus, and it honestly doesn't seem that bad. However, I still plan on getting a head start on the reading, because I am NOT failing that class. I also got a couple of interviews lined up for two of my assignments coming up, thanks to my lovely hubby! I am also going to an open AA meeting this weekend to observe about the 12 step program, and become a little more familiar with it. So I feel pretty good, to be honest with you!

Anyway, so I was looking at my stats for my blog. I don't get a long of views, and that's ok. However, I have noticed that my most popular post seems to be from my "My Philosophy of Nursing" post where I was frustrated on how to write a 2 page paper on the subject. I chuckle a little bit when I see those people got to my page because they googled "My Philosophy of Nursing". It makes me wander if they are fellow Harper students, or if this is a common assignment in other programs. But I chuckle because I did the same thing. I was dying for an example to go by. However, I figured it out on my own, and that's why I chose not to post the paper I wrote because I'll be damned if I am giving someone else any kind of advantage that I didn't have! :) And I mean that with love....L....O....V....E!

It hard to believe that last semester I was absolutely terrified that I would get kicked out within the first week, then the first month, or second or third month, or that I'd all the way to end of the semester, and fail by 1 point. I had absolutely NO idea of what to expect, how to prepare, how to organize. But now that the first semester is over, I feel more confident. I still have worlds to learn here, am not perfect at all. But I feel confident in my abilities to learn and absorb the things that my instructors are throwing at me. I am not absolutely terrified of this first Psych test on Tuesday. I just know I need to give it my all to prepare, and know that I truly did my best!

On another note, this bright and charming nursing student managed to bite her tongue today and it is very painful! So my lovely hubby is bring me a milkshake! :) I love him!
