Time's fun when you're having flies!

I can't believe October 2 was my last post! It seems like just yesterday that I was writing blog posts. Sorry Leslie--I'll do better from now on.
I have so much to catch everyone up on! So let's start at the beginning of this novel, shall we...

Midterm: Finally got my test back--95!!!! Hooray! I'm tending to be better at theory (lecture) than I am at clinical/lab. Not that I'm BAD at clinical, but I do way better at theory tests. I'm just glad midterm is over. We can finally move on. I knew that as soon as midterm ended, we'd be able to get to hospital clinicals.

Hospital clinicals: NEW INSTRUCTOR!! I like her--more info on her to follow. I have been looking forward to the hospital since we started on Day 1. We got our assignments on Monday afternoon. Evaluations are this week, so I'll see how they think I'm doing. On one hand, I really want to hear what they have to say, but on the other, I don't want to hear it. I think I'm my worst critic. I'm harder on myself than any one of them has been. I have to write a paper on this clinical experience. It will be a full blown care plan. I got my last care plan back and I brought my grade up 3 points, to a 91! I was so relieved. I fully expected my grade to drop. I'm sure they graded harder this time than the first time. I worked harder on this on than the last though.

Let me tell you, I'm tired of white uniforms!!! When I get out of school, I don't ever want to see a white uniform again! I hope all you nurses out there remember me when you have students on your unit. Be nice to them for me!

For now....
