Update!

The most stressful week of nursing school so far is halfway over, and one exam got moved to next week! Super exciting for me!! My first test this week was in Assessment, and I got an 84% on it! However, pathophysiology brought my great mood down the next day. I'm pretty sure I failed my second exam in that class. I called my mom and cried after I was done. I have never felt so hopeless while taking an exam. I talked to some of my classmates and my mentor, and they had the same complaints as I did. I can't believe I studied SO HARD and did so poorly! What am I doing wrong??

I went grocery shopping today. My kitchen was so empty that even my fridge was hungry! Since I only have one homework assignment and one exam for Friday, I can relax a little. I swear I'll sleep for a week after my Interventions exam on Friday.

DISH TIME!!

New guy and I have been talking ever since Thursday morning. He is such a sweet guy! He's so personable and easy to talk to!  Meeting him has been such an encouragement. He's been incredibly supportive through this week (which I know I've been grumpy, which is not an easy thing to deal with!).  We went to the movies over the weekend and I got to meet some of his teammates. We had a pretty good time. My nursing friends like him quite a bit, which is a biiiiig bonus! I enjoy his company quite a bit and I hope I get to know him better over the next couple of weeks.

I'm so sorry this is short for a week-long update, I just HAD to tell you what was going on!! I'm heading back to the library in a few minutes. I've been in there so much lately that someone suggested that I bring a cot and sleep there!

This is me, and I'm just alive.
