Three short (or long) weeks from now I will be surrounded by my family, having dinner to celebrate graduating from this insane program! I CANNOT wait!!
Today, we had exam two...I think it may have gone slightly better than exam one. Well, I sure hope it did! My C is haunting me and I have to do better to keep my grade up. I was hoping to get an A in this course to improve my overall GPA, but not sure I can still pull that off. We do have yet another assignment to finish this week and the huge poster presentation which I feel confident we will get an A on, so hopefully that is enough.
We were assigned for next Tuesday for our Trends presentation. The six of us met for a little over an hour today to get a jump on it. I think our presentation, on the Image of Nursing, should be fun. We are tackling the stereotypes of nurses (sexy, mean, doctor's maid, angel of mercy to name a few) and each group member will portray a stereotype (I got angel) as the start of the presentation. We will then go through some facts and ways we all as future nurses can stomp out the stereotypes and end with some fun YouTube videos. We think it will be informative and entertaining. Who really wants to sit through yet another power point presentation?? I sure don't!
This week I have to tackle my ethics paper. I have to find a case to show both sides of the ethical argument. We also have to finish up our population assessment project. And I am overwhelmed again.
I heard that the new class of nursing students start their first clinical tomorrow. They are a week later into their program than we were. I took a minute with my friend today, as we were walking through the lobby, to take in the fact that we are at the other end of the program and so unbelievably thankful we are to not be back at the start, the night before our first clinical. I just want to be done!!!
Ok, back to the grind for a bit before calling it a night a tad earlier this evening.
