Major Life Changes, FYI:

1. I Graduate in 11 days.
2. I start a "real job" on Jan 8th. I got accepted into the RN critical care internship program at UAB.
3. I'm getting married on Oct. 13 at Samford. I've been to busy to plan anything though.
4. I have to take my N-Clex soon - i'm scared.
5. I bought a Christmas Tree last night and watched Christmas Vacation.

Sorry to all those I dont keep in touch with anymore. Its pretty sad that I think i'll have more free time when I'm done with school and working full time. I cant wait for a paycheck and no schoolwork!

    And as soon as you get a job, you get to start doing certifications. I'm battling ACLS right now and it's awful!

    I like nights. The pace is a bit slower. There aren't as many doctors around writing orders and it's just quiet (most of the time). It is a little difficult to get into a routine. I've actually had some trouble sleeping the last few nights because I'm so used to sleeping days. = ) But, the money is worth it at the same time. = )

Considering its almost spring break I figured its time to get rid of my Christmas entry. The past few months have been so busy. I had a wonderful break from school and didnt go back till the end of january. I went skiing, worked and did whatever I wanted to do. It was much needed to prepare for this semester. So far I love school this semester (except for the whole waking up at 4:30 to go to clinicals!) I rarely admit to liking school but this semester something is different. Its harder than ever before but I'm more motivated Maybe its just that I'm closer to graduating.

I cant wait for spring break! I wanted to take a trip but I had a rather large and unexpected vet bill' to pay so it looks like i'm heading to the lake for some 'free' down time. If anyone wants to join me they can! Oh well.. its only my last spring break EVER!

Enough about myself...I hope everyones have a great semester so far. Study/Work hard! Whens everyones spring break and what are your plans??

  • jackofhearts
    glad school is so fun.. i didnt even know they had a 4:30 in the morning now. next week is spring break and im goin to BG for a few days its not quite "free" but its better than sittin on my fat kiester in FL

Christmas time..

I was bummed cause my parents put up an artificial tree again this year so jon suprised me with this..(he just bought the tree, i was in charge of the whole decorating thing)


So this morning i woke up to a ripping noise. My dog had the ornaments and was ripping them to pieces. Its a great start to a great week.

Three tests + 2 finals = not fun.

Good luck everyone
  • elgriff
    haha, do you have another cocoa on your hands? your dogs are too cute. i think mom and dad are starting to think about another one. Gus is 9 now and has arthritis really bad :(

FINALs

My dad has a famous qoute: "Failing is not an option."
I dont have enough energy to get up to go to class. How am I gonna make it through finals. But looking on the bright side: Thursday is my last clinical till Feb. and i only have two finals.

Good luck everyone and remember my dads qoute!

I'm a follower...

I was a little disappointed in my map, i thought i had been more places. I guess I just had multiple visits to the same places. Plus my family's not big on car trips so that knocks the whole driving through places. so here you go... i know you were all wondering.

create your own personalized map of the USA
Hope everyone is eating alot of turkey. I was informed that my grandmother was fixing a "Hen" - kinda like the 4th of july she fixed leg of lamb. I know-weird! So I dont know what i'll eat tomorrow..shes not making mac and cheese or potatoes and there wont be a ham. I dont like turkey, dressing, cranberry sauce, or pecan pie.

i guess i'm not american.
