4th year whatnot.

Often I find myself thinking about something that has happened in my life and think geez, I should really write about this. Keep track of it, record my thoughts. Not necessarily blogging, but perhaps journalling? Keeping a private blog? Regardless, I find myself circling back here again and again.

This nursing student's 'journey' has become so much more than a walk through nursing school. In the beginning I believe it initially was, but now my journey has come to involve so much more. I've thought about changing the title, taking down the content, adjusting the blog to better reflect the reality that I think I'll be writing more about life, and not just about my school day. So perhaps in the near future?

But speaking of school, my last post was just before Christmas - the end of third year. Fast forward to now, and viola - staying afloat in 4th year! It's a massive, massive juggling act. Between readings, papers, research projects and presentations, I am doing school work 90% of the week. But finally I am feeling content in school. Happy. Something about the routine schedule, classwork, independent studying just makes me tick. Love it!

Although school takes up a massive portion of my time, its previous 'all-consuming' status is coming down a few notches - but not in a bad way! Until recently, school was my only obligation, homework was the only item on my to-do list, and graduating was my only future plan. My education hasn't fallen to the way-side by any means, however recent life events have seriously jumbled my once-solid future plans and priority list.... which is where my thoughts about blogging beyond school come in :)

But for now, just a little recap with where I'm at.

Cheers!
