I know. I haven’t blogged in months…I suck.
Finished my first semester in nursing school, aka boot camp. Spent the first half of clinicals in a convalescent home, and the second half at St Johns in acute care (much more challenging). It was agony waking up at the crack of dawn and felt occasionally discouraged by the workload. I am passionate about the acquisition of practical skills and patient education. I also feel that my duty as a nurse is very meaningful and know that nursing is a purposeful profession.
I am currently taking a couple summer school courses while working a couple days a week. My workload isn’t quite as intense as it was with clinicals, and indulge in my preferred 8 hours of sleep. In the meantime, I’m scrambling to take in the outdoor activities, mingling, and other projects, which will be impossible in the Fall. Dave and I are also planning a road trip to New Mexico in August-more details to be disclosed.
