Happy Birthday Dad!
I was sad I could not find one of you in the red leisure suit. But, these are good too!
Alive...for now.
So, I have officially been in nursing school for two weeks and it has been an experience to say the least. I am so busy and I want to remember all that I am going through so that I can look back in appreciation. So, hopefully I will be able to discipline myself to blogging regularly for my enjoyment and maybe yours as well.
Week 1: The book for my Basic Nursing class was supposed to come with an "online" booklet complete with access code. It did not. When I realized that it did not I had already gotten homework for that class, requiring me to us the access code, and the bookstore was closed all weekend because of bad weather so I could not exchange it. Que mental breakdown. My first week and I was already behind! Tons of reading to do, bad internet connection, no access code, snowed in, and ...babysitting. It was like "The Shining" without actually busting my head through a door and yelling "Here's Mary!"
Week 2: Monday I went to the bookstore to get a new book with an access code. Something told me to check the bookstore before I left, but no... I did not listen. Walked home, unwrapped book...access code USED!!!! Holy cow, you have got to be kidding me! The bookstore had bought back a book with a used access code and I got it. The homework for it was due the next day. So, I stayed up late and woke up that next morning and got it done. Went to class and was told that the deadline was extended because so many people were having problems. ARG! Good news: I am almost caught up and in lab on Tuesday I get to give someone a shot! Oh yeah! Bad news: A nursing student will be giving me a shot in lab on Tuesday.
