After talking with a friend, I decided I needed to update this ol' thing. Just real quick. For anyone who reads from Calvin....this summer has gone quick. Who can believe it's almost been 2 full months since the class of '06 graduated. Those 2 months have been full for me, catching up with a few precious hilliard friends, studying for the boards, a three week trip to Europe! and some quality time with mom and dad. That brings us to now. Quite honestly--at the moment, I feel just as stressed as I was when I was in school. I can't wait to take this stupid standardized test and become a full fledged RN....prayers are much needed! So please! That's it from here.

* So--what do you do when you are told a comment that regards the future, but you don't know how to take it?

- Someone else's life

Warning: I'm moppy. or sad. or discouraged. All of the above. And I need to not be focused on such thing, but I am. It's funny how someone's good news can be good news for you, but also sad news for you in the same breathe. Something I knew would happen really happened and now my idealistic dreams, well....ideas really, have changed. Just a bit. No big deal, except that was what I was looking forward to during this transition time. Things could be bad, stressful and sucky here...but there was always the summer and its hope. The hope is still there I guess...but now I think it just means I have to be more careful. More guarding of my heart. I think I'm a goner already, stupid ashley.

It's just taken so long to find something I really wanted...

Multiple Choices

So, in case you haven't heard. The Calvin Nursing Program ends for me on FRIDAY! That's right, I only have 3 more days of clinicals, pass tests and a final! Amazing. I can hardly believe it, then when i do think about it--I kind of hyperventilate. At this exact moment, I'm doing good...no panic attack. Quite frankly, I am ready for a break. I am tired of home visits, care plans, multiple choice computer tests....I still love the information and what I am studying---but I want to redo this whole studying thing. Can't we just have computer chips that enter in our brains instead that just give us all the knowledge we need. Think, that way we could switch professionals real easy. Remove my nursing chip, enter in a professional chef cook and I become a chef at a 5 star resteraunt. Sounds good to me. I'd specialize in dishes with coconut in them

But really...only 11 days till graduation. Who knew....
