So yeah, I bet you are wondering (that is if people even still read this poorly updated blog, sorry…) right about now… hey, where’s the year end album countdown? Well, I can assure you of something; it IS coming. I haven’t had time to get it done, because frankly, I work all of the time. [...]

sotd: Robyn – Include Me Out
Published by December 28th, 2011 in blog on blog, music musings, music suggestion, song of the day and you tube. 0 CommentsI 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. [...]
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, [...]
june’s ending, so here’s a list
Published by June 29th, 2009 in all about me, happenings, home improvement, mixed media and school. 2 CommentsThere have been several little things going on with me lately, but nothing big, so I figured a list would do the trick. Here we go: As I mentioned a few times, we got a PS3 earlier in June. Yesterday, I noticed that they had a bundle with Little Big Planet (the game I bought [...]
I’m this close
Published by May 27th, 2009 in all about me, school, tragic, venting and wtf?!. 6 Comments…to completely giving up. I have applied, taken classes, kissed ass, sent in form after fucking form, and it is all apparently not enough. I cannot get into a fucking nursing program to save my life. I am really close to just saying, “fuck it, universe, you win”. I just got off of the phone [...]
