Stress much?

Finally!, a second to breath. This moment of relief was only able to be found during my lunch break at work LOL. This week was a sure reminder that your senior year is well on its way.A test in Med/Surg, clinicals in Dayton, a paper, 2 case studies, and a whole careplan to do is what my life consists of right now.Don't get me wrong I almost kind of enjoy the pressure. Nothing feels better then EARNING what you want. With every sleep deprived day,approaching deadline, or unexpected obstacle comes another chance to prove to not just everyone else, but most importantly to youself that you have what it takes to get it done. After every week of school I become that much more confident in myself and the desire to be done and out in the field becomes that much stronger. I hope everyone is winning with every challenge being thrown at them this year and is ready to accomplish their acedemic goals as much as I am.

October 1rst!?!?

Everyone always says as you get older time goes faster. This semester so far time has truly flown by. We are already almost half way through the semester, shortly after we hit the halfway point it will be Thanksgiving break and then final examination time. Ahhhh I am beyond excited to be at that point, but I in no way want to wish time away. Even though this semester is extremely stressful and I feel like there is not enough time in a day for everything, I know that it won't always be like this. Every experience creates a memory and I want to remember them all. Plus I take pride in knowing that I am working hard to get where I am going.

As I look around at my peers and my friends that I will be graduating with in May, you can truly see the growth and development that has taken place over the 4-5years we have all been here. I wonder where everyone will be in 5-10years. It makes me laugh when I think back to when I was in high school and where I thought i would be back then. When I was a senior in high school I planned on being engaged my senior year of college and graduating in four years, have an idea and a job lined up.<-------My life is nothing like this Lol. I have a plan to be in the United States Army Nurse Corps but a lot of factors play into that, I don't know where I will be living or who I will end up marrying. I do know that if an opportunity presents itself then I am going to take it, because there is one thing that I have learned these past 5 years and that is if there is a situation that presents itself where you may be unsure, GO FOR IT anyways because ultimately you will always regret not doing something.

Just some simple words of advice
