Tying the bow around my finger

Always remember to...

Be on top of things
Stop and think it through
Don't put off reading
Don't be scared
Sit up straight
Make friends
Laugh
Think critically

The first days

NOTHING will prepare you for the wall you are about to hit when you attend your first few days of nursing school. Yes, you might be a straight-A, intelligent, hard working type of individual. but you are a fool to believe that anything will come easy to you the next 2 years. Your world of fantasy will soon change. Bedmaking sounds like an easy enough job right? WRONG! For those who have no experience in the medical field whatsoever, be prepared to feel like you know nothing.

The amount of work is overwhelming. You feel like your not up to speed, you're nervous, everything you touch feels unnatural. This is not what you thought it would be, and you just can't see yourself putting up with this much stress. You can't get organized no matter how much you try. You are left to learn pretty much on your own, READ everything, WATCH every video, becasuse you have no idea what is expected of you. Expect to have a nervous breakdown....everything else will seem so insignificant. You feel like you can't breath and your running out of time.

The year of good news....well mostly good news

The year of hugs and kisses

The year of being nice

The year of whitney

The year of laptops

The year of emmanuelle alt

The year of cleaning up my act

The year of recognition

The year of the wisdom teeth

The year of pine crest

The year of trying to save baby birds

The year of

I'm seeing shit in my near future

Happy New Year!


I've had such an awesome time off from school and work. I have to saying my demotion has been good for my soul. But ever since January 1st I've had this sense of fear overcome my good spirit. Last night I laid in bed wide awake. While I was in school I used to have these middle of the night panic attacks, but since I've been on vacation I've been sleeping fine. Until last night...

I feel like I want to crawl out of my skin. I feel like I want to cry.
