| I am a college senior! Well, I actually was one a long time ago, but now I only have 2 semesters left. I have Pediatrics and Critical Care this semester, but have a couple weeks before clinical start. I have a preceptor on the 7th floor of Vandy for peds! I'm so excited, but incredibly frightened about both clinicals! | | |
| Med-surg clinicals and the semester are almost over, and so is the semester thank-God. I'm exhausted physical and emotionally. I also cannot wait to get out of this house for the summer. | | |

| Hasn't been such a great day really... right now I'm doing a little catching up with the Lady Gaga interviews from the radio over the past couple of weeks. I went through a bit of a dry spell really being obsessed with her, BUT I have decided after listening to these interviews with her that she's so inspirational and although my obsession with her last semester bordered on crazy (maybe?) I was in a good place in my life. I was a whole lot happier, I was stressed but I was still managing to be really happy, I lost 60 pounds... that's always good, I made great grades. Even though I was incredibly stressed and needed to study all of the time, but I used my study time to my "my time." I'd get up on my days off, go exercise, read notes and listen to Gaga while on the elliptical, then I'd shower there at the Y, get dressed and i'd look nice (not like i had just gone to the gym, but like I was about to go out somewhere other than to study). I'd go to the coffee shop, get my coffee with skim milk and splenda with my grilled provalone cheese on wheat berry bread and terra chips... and there I'd sit... laptop open, headphones on listening to gaga, books spread, and I'd study like that... for hours and hours and hours... happy as I could be... stupid coffee ship is closed now though... that's the BIG thing throwing me off | | |
