Nursing School

Sometimes I wonder why I'm doing what I'm doing. Why I put myself through so much hell, no sleep no social life no free time. It's easy to forget the light at the end of the tunnel when it comes to nursing school. It's like a dark black hole that sucks you in and you're trying not to drown.

It's been the worst semester of my life. My hardest classes, I still hold a position in the sorority, I started dating someone, I can't even remember the last time I went to a party or social event. At least my cats are snuggly, amiright? I've also been sick a lot. So that really doesn't help. 

With all that said, I did have my pediatrics clinical this semester. It was wonderful. Such an affirmation of what I want to do with my nursing career. 

I had a job interview today at Children's Hospital of Michigan for a student nurse extern position. Basically I would be shadowing and working under a preceptor. It was like finding that light. Now that I have seen it I don't want to forget it or let it go. 

I have to finish this last year as my best ever because I owe it to myself. I've worked way too hard to let myself fall behind or fail. I am so exhausted but I need to remind myself of the end reward.

Now I will go write my care plan. Peace.
