I just found out today that I am a registered nurse. I took the NCLEX yesterday, which is the board certification test for becoming a RN, and even though I haven’t received the results yet, the Georgia Board of Nursing has already posted my status as an active registered nurse with a license number and [...]

tonight, I finish with nursing school…
Published by May 12th, 2011 in all about me, school and show the love. 5 CommentsTonight, I am going to my pinning ceremony for nursing school. I think that it is pretty amazing that this is also the same date as Florence Nightingale’s birthday; as she is the woman who pioneered modern nursing. This is the ceremonial passing of the torch to us, transitioning us from nursing students, into nurses. [...]
another class complete and 5SF stuff
Published by October 1st, 2010 in blog on blog, five song friday and school. 0 CommentsAs of yesterday, I have successfully completed my Peds class. Whew!! That was rough at times, and I am just glad it’s over. I still have two more clinical days, but they shouldn’t be so bad. Now, just to start studying for Pysch’s first test, and get prepared for OB to start up. School work, [...]
I am very busy with school and whatnot, but I’m still here… This semester has been an exercise in extreme patience, and so far, I am only doing so-so with said patience. I really need to learn to relax and just let shit that I cannot control go, but I have such a hard time [...]
two down, two to go… time to celebrate!
Published by July 30th, 2010 in all about me, friends and school. 3 CommentsYesterday, I finished my second final of my second semester of nursing school. As many of you know, this summer has been a whirlwind of a semester, and it has been more than trying at times. However, I worked my ass off, and studied hard, and all my hard work paid off; another semester is [...]
So my first semester of nursing school is in the bag; we had our final last Wednesday, and the next semester starts promptly tomorrow… not much time for a break, eh? Oh well, that’s what accelerated means! Either way, I am proud to have made it through the first semester intact, but my stress hasn’t [...]
Today was my last day of clinical rotation for my first semester of nursing school. I would be a complete liar if I said I had totally enjoyed the experience, because all in all, working in the hospital is hard work, and you occasionally find yourself elbow deep in shit; sometimes, quite literally. Overall, what [...]
That might as well be my middle name. Ever since I can remember, I have worried, and worried, and worried about everything. Crap that I can control, crap that I can’t control, crap that I shouldn’t even worry about; I even worry that I worry to much. However, I can’t seem to turn it off. [...]
well, I guess that wasn’t SO hard…
Published by February 19th, 2010 in all about me, five song friday and school. 1 CommentI just finished my second day of clinical rotation at Grady, and I can definitely say that I am going to learn to breathe exclusively through my mouth when doing certain tasks. Overall, the experience has been extremely overwhelming, but I think that with time, I will be more accustomed to things. I knew nursing [...]
first day of clinical tomorrow
Published by February 17th, 2010 in all about me and school. 3 CommentsSo as the title of this post indicates, tomorrow is my first day of nursing clinical rotations at Grady hospital. I am officially freaked out; mostly because I don’t know exactly what to expect. I am just hoping that fear/stress turns into confidence/belief in myself very early on in the day, because while, deep down, [...]
