studystudystudy.

Another week gone, and no posts. Oops!

This past week was utterly insane. My stress levels were on high all week, and still are. From classes, to friends, work, and planning for the future...It all came on in one big heap.

I have been bogged with studying: I have two killer midterms this week - Microbiology and Physiology II. Both are excessively time-consuming, and require stupid amounts of flash cards and highlighters.

Then I have a Clinical reflection, Lab paper, Psychology midterm, Communication presentation, and Nursing assignment all due within two weeks. So just as two hectic weeks come to a close, two more begin.

Then there's my social life. SHESH. One of my friends is in an arranged marriage, and another passed out at a party. And I haven't seen my high school friends in 4 weeks. I also must mention that Halloween brought a host of interesting characters to residence, and really amped up the fact I am not part of the 'partying' lifestyle.

So will all of this in mind - and so much more - I'm just focusing on doing the best I can, one step at a time. Thankfully, I brought back a bunch of Mom's cookies to get me through. Let's hope they help!

And, despite all the insanity, you still find the time to make the people around you feel loved and appreciated. You are always willing to take five minutes to listen to my crises or watch an episode of Harry Potter Puppet Pals or talk. And that is so very appreciated, Miss Danielle. You are marvelous.
Have fun at clinical!
