I didn't have a weekend. I was in the hospital all day Friday and worked Friday night. I worked for ten and a half hours on Saturday. I spent all day today in the hospital today. My week is already thrown off. I'm still convinced it's Tuesday.
A lot of my classmates already have job interviews set up. Some of them are already hired. Me? I haven't started applying. Part of the reason is that I didn't realize how soon we could begin the whole process. So now I'm a nervous wreck. I have somewhat of an idea how to apply for Christ. I am really considering staying on the rehab unit. I'm used to the nurses, doctors, PCAs, therapists, and the general routine. I think that I would adapt easier to the inital transition from student to nurse if I would be on a familiar floor. I also find rehab to be very rewarding. I like watching the progress made in these patients. It's so nice to see them walking and talking again. I'm planning on getting an application out this week. I am SO scared. The interview process is new to me. The idea of being "on my own" is somewhat frightening. I just want the NCLEX to be over with. I want the interview to be over with. It's going to drive me crazy.
I decided that I'm going to graduation. I realized that if I go then my parents will come back. And I want to see them. So I'm going to walk. I'm not thrilled but I'll see my parents. My dad is also taking us to a Reds game the next day. Who can pass that up?
