the nursing school saga continues...

i will finish out the semester, except for the class in which i got my 2nd clinical fail. after, i will have failed out of the program. then i will start the LVN program with transferred credits. after working as an LVN for 6 months, i will be eligible to continue in the RN program. the specifics will be worked out next tuesday.

nice save, huh. plus i get to work a real job again, which is something i crave, even if its for low bucks. and depending where i work, it might be a good way to make the connections i need to get an rn job if i take that route. and it gives me time to do the rn thing when my heads into it. clearly rt now the timing is off. not just for me personally, but also in the real world new grad rn job market.

as the director put it: use this time to get your shit together!! for sure, i must enter the VN program with a different attitude. and if i go for RN, same thing. i used to have extraordinary discipline and motivation, really i did.

like i said at the meeting, "what happened there...i don't know."

now for the cram session from hell. and by cram, i really mean cram. i only went to one of the lectures. and i never reviewed the notes from that lecture. see, all my time had to shift to careplans for the other clinical. so never studied any of this stuff yet. resp, card, hemo, and f/e all by 8am tmrrw.

luckily, cramming for tests like this comes easy to me.
(way easier than spitting out careplan packets at the last minute, anyway).
it seems to be opposite for most nursing students. but then im not the typical ns.
