Yesterday, 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 [...]

Published by July 21st, 2010 in blog on blog, music suggestion and song of the day. 3 CommentsOh shit, Look! I have a blog! HA!

I cannot wait for a little R&R, which I desperately need. In the mean time, here [...]
sotd: Lisa Loeb – Stay (I Missed You)
Published by June 20th, 2010 in music musings and song of the day. 2 CommentsGod I loved this song when it came out… then they played this shit out of it on the radio, and naturally, I got tired of it. However, last week, I was eating lunch with some friends after a particularly frustrating day-long lecture, and it started playing; and it was almost like a warm hug [...]
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 [...]
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. [...]
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, [...]

another little “snag” in the bathroom renovation
Published by May 8th, 2009 in home improvement and well?. 8 CommentsUPDATE UPDATE UPDATE: I managed to squeeze out enough tile I already had to make the original plan work; I just used one less row. That one inch won’t matter anyhow. Sorry for all the commotion folks… move along now, nothing to see here. Pictures are forthcoming though, so do come back now, ya hear?! [...]

a couple of quick notes about me of the now
Published by November 19th, 2008 in all about me, blog on blog, music musings and school. 6 CommentsAs November gets closer to its end, I am more and more excited (and at the same time, anxious) about my annual blogging tradition of picking, and blogging my top 31 CDs of the year. There are some amazing records on this year’s list, and with each week’s subsequent CD releases, it’s only make things [...]
