burn in HELL nclex-rn review!!!!!!
So, for the past few days I have been reading 100 pages/day in this giant 1,000 page text book. It's a review book for the NCLEX, which is the licensing exam for nurses that you take the summer after you graduate. A lot of people don't know this, but my fancy B.S.N. from Bradley means NOTHING unless I pass that test and my title becomes BSN, RN. registered nurse. Its coming so soon. Anyhow, Bradley has to been a huge over acheiving nursing program, so they are giving us this Graduate exam the first day of class for spring semester. Its just like the NCLEX and will predict your success (pass or fail) on the real exam.
Yeah, no pressure.
And, whats more, if we do poorly on the graduate exam, you have to go through holy hell with the department to ensure they sign off for you to graduate. I should probably continue reading my book rather than ranting about it online, but it feels good, and Im slowing going insane reading a book containing just about everything I'll ever need to know as a nurse. IN TEN DAYS. I'm sure Ill be more prepared than most other students, but hey, I sometimes choke too. Well, not really.
Anywho, tomorrow through Monday Im babysitting for A.j. She has the CUTEST daughter named Campbell. Shes only three, and spunky as can be. Its actually great because it forces me to get out of bed early, and get used to some sort of routine. Plus, I got a little money to pay off some of my debt.......a whole other issue. Today was my first day babysitting, and Im excited to go back. I really want to play Candyland, but I realized today that 3 year olds have the attention span equivalent to a fly. Hahahah. Let me tell ya, its been years since Ive played "hide and go seek".
Anyways, my mind is wandering and the guilt of procrastination is bearing down on me.....
Im just going to read as much as I can before I passssss out sleeping!
Hopefully Ill be more put together this semester and update on a more regular basis.
ciao and love ya all!
