School is still going well. I passed my injections test, so hopefully next week I will be able to give one in clinical! Everything seems to be going well I’m just tired of the non-stop work! Ugh! Monday I have a clinical paper due and a pharmacology test, and wednesday I have a health assessment paper due and a health assessment quiz! Then the next 2.5 weeks after that are finals!! (we’re still in classes for part of it, but some classes are giving us finals during class time). So I’m just busy busy as usual.

My boyfriend came home last week (he’s home for 2 weeks–he’s a year younger than me so he’s still in college) so I have been enjoying his company a lot. I love having him home. We’ve been dating for almost 5 years now, but for almost all of it we were both away at different colleges, so needless to say we’re excited for him to be done with school in August, so we can finally have a non-long distance relationship

Wishing you all a wonderful Thanksgiving! Thanks for supporting me in my nursing school journey so far! I’m definitely really thankful for my friends, family, and boyfriend this year…I could never have done it without them!

Now let’s eat!

I love Thanksgiving dinner…heading home around 1:00 to be with my parents, both my siblings who are home for college, my grandparents, and one of my uncles. Should be a good time

I love the holidays (I’m already listening to Christmas music–laugh all you want I LOVE it), so definitely expect some good holiday cheer from me!

~love always~

Really quick post just because I haven’t updated in a while. Unfortunately I can’t stay long…it’s basically crunch time until Christmas…gah! I got an A on my Fluids & Electrolytes test just wanted to let you know since I had been talking about that before. School has been very very busy and pretty stressful just because the workload is piling up. I’m still learning a lot and still doing well (knock on wood) though. I don’t remember if I mentioned that I can officially pass meds now!! I passed the proficiency test and the math test so that’s a big deal. Half of our group will get to pass them at clinical on Thursday and the other half the following week. I’m excited to do it! Then next week is injections proficiency! Another biggie.

Nursing school is starting to affect my sleep. I was warned but ugh. I’m usually pretty good and still get 6-7 hours, but I am hitting those rough nights (like last night) where I’m only get 3-4 hours. I usually still function fairly well for a day or so, but not much longer than that. Luckily I can go to bed somewhat early tonight and sleep in a little tomorrow

Anyway so sorry for the lack of updates although I know you guys know how it is

~love always~
