So I realized it has been quite some time since the last time I blogged. Life got sort of crazy, so heres my updates::
School is going well. It is hard and every so often it kicks me in the butt. However, I know if I stick to my guns and stay focused, I will be an RN before I realize it. I joined the National Student Nursing Association (NSNA), which promotes student nursing activities and helps me to become the type of nurse the work force wants. We are sponsoring a smoking cessation program which I am a part of. In August, we are going to have a smoke out day and encourage and provide ways for students to quit. It is all about health promotion!! I also became my class rep for the school's student leader program. It is not just about being a well-rounded student, but also doing something besides nursing while in nursing school.
This weekend gave me a much needed break from the craziness from school. Saturday was a fun day! First, my baby sister graduated from high school! So proud of her! She had a graduation party... (really yummy ribs!) Then I was given tickets to Country Throwdown by a friend who couldn't go. So Sarah and I decided to shut of the nursing student for a while and go and enjoy ourselves. And we sure did. We also realized how many rednecks there are in California!! hahah... it was interesting! The bands were great and it was just a fun time. I needed it.
Now, it is back to the grind for a couple more weeks until my next fun trip up to Ripon to see Greg over 4th of July weekend! I am really looking forward to seeing him and having a good time! :)
