On that same note...I am terrified that I am in nursing school!!!! I am learning things that I have to retain to be able to take care of people when I am done!
I only have to go to campus today to 1- order my uniform and 2-to take my lab final. I have had a few late starts this week and I am not a fan. I am so much less productive in the morning when left on my own. I work better getting up, starting my day, coming home and working late. Good thing we switch for the next course; I'll be in the morning lab group with an 8am start time.
I am getting really nervous for the head to toe assessment. I know it all, but I am so nervous I will blow it when in the exam. We are being videotaped :) I had a good convo with my professor yesterday. I went to her office to turn in an assignment and she asked me how I was doing (so much support). Well that opened me up to start rambling like an anxious idiot! I told her most of what I have written in here, how I love the professors, I love kids and see myself working in pediatrics, my revelation of realizing the faculty aren't scary because we are being taught by nurses, and how I am anxious but feeling better little by little. Whew! She agreed and said she loves when students have those "ah-ha" moments. She also asked about my background. I must have made waitressing not sound so great because she told me to not discount that role; multitasking, thinking on your toes and people skills come out of waitressing! She said she would much rather have a waitress than an office worker in nursing school :) Confidence boost, yes.
Off I go, for my long midday commute to school. Here's hoping I remember all the points I have to hit on the exam!
All that worrying and you still got a 100%! So proud of you. I will be your patient ANY time you need me! As a teacher, I love the "ah-ha" moments you have, too! And remember-Nevus flammeus!!
