I passed! I have one more semester of nursing school to go! I'll be done in December. I have the summer off. It's been so long since I've had a summer off I'm almost not sure what to do with myself, except write fic. There needs to be so much writing.

I checked my school email yesterday and realized there was a form to fill out for my clinical site. The email said it was due on the third. I filled it out and sent it right back explaining that I'd just seen it. I got an email back saying she'd received it and then a call saying she doesn't know if the hospital will accept the form. If they don't ( Read more... )

My internet isn’t working. I just found out that the landline was canceled yesterday and though I was assured that my internet would still work it isn’t. So I’m going to give them a call tomorrow and see what can be done, though I may just cancel it for a time. I can always use the library and my dad’s internet ( Read more... )

I didn't pass my 1600 class by 3pts or if you want to get really exact .7%. At this point it looks like I can readmit and get put into a lottery and will be able to retake the class as soon as there is an opening, hopefully this fall. This pushes my grad date back by a year as I would get summers off ( Read more... )

I got a C! I also finished my paperwork for clinical! So happy right now! Very excited! One more clinical day and I'm offically on vacation!

One thing I won't miss when I graduate in December is waiting for grades to post. It always fills me with anxiety. I know I did well on the last one. I studied hard, put aside family/friend time to do so. I felt it was easy while I was taking it and it was math heavy. I find the nursing math easy to figure out. Still my stomach is tied in knots ( Read more... )

I started an IV today! I am so happy! I was really nervous about it, but I'd made sure to practice just that one skill for an hour by itself so when I finally finished setting up and got the needle in my hand my brain finally stopped bouncing around in nervousness and let my hands take over.

Today was horrible, but not the whole day. The first eight hours of my shift went well, the last four started as a spiral out of control mess. The only way I managed not to break down into tears was to imagine that I'd gone outside in the snow and was screaming at the top of my lungs. I got through it, but I don't want complain about it. I've been ( Read more... )

There has been a lot of good this week. I had to check off on vitals and another skill for nursing lab this week, so I basically had to show them I know how to take a set of vitals and then perform another skill that we recently learned. When I went in to practice I ran into most of the same group I'd been practicing with and a girl I hadn't talked ( Read more... )

Got my test results and I have to say I'm glad I didn't have to wait all weekend for them. Out of a class of sixty-some only thirteen people passed this test. A forty-one was needed to pass, I got a forty. So while I didn't pass I was really close. There is also a rumor going around that she might throw out one of the questions which was one I got ( Read more... )
