Wow. School is intense. On the agenda for next week: start clinicals at assisted living facility, read 24 chapters & complete outcomes, watch 1 video, read a few journal articles, 1 oral presentation of a journal article, SCCANS breakfast on Wednesday morning, learn how to take vital signs, find time to eat, sleep and breathe.
People are freakin' out. Everyone looks a little different than they did just a week and a half ago; wrinkled forheads, tired eyes, clenched teeth. And bonding has happened so fast, there's been this intuitive knowing that we really need eachother if we're going to make it without falling apart. All these people that are used to being the best students are experiencing what it feels like to fall behind on studies, fail a quiz and have no idea what's going on. It's almost like we've been dropped into some weird social experiment. And I guess that's the point. We're supposed to experience all this stuff in order to learn a process - that's a word we keep hearing over and over and over again. So, I'm just going with the flow and trying not to let it get the best of me.
Tonight I'm eating Pho and watching Survivor, taking a break, and looking forward to lots of study time this weekend.
