Maternal Newborn

Alright, I’m so excited! I received a request for a maternal newborn post so I scavenged up some of my study guides to help gear studying. I too had a difficult time with the course. Not because of a quarantine but because of a couple snow days caused me to miss class. And if anyone…

Quarantine Boredom

I keep seeing people post things on social media about how bored they are. So, I thought I’d write a post about how I’m keeping myself from boredom during this interesting, new, and scary quarantine time. Planting I haven’t had too much of a green thumb before but I have also not been stuck at…

Take a Break

Whatever that means to you. Take a break. We ALL need it once in awhile. I’ve been taking a break from writing. I’ve been having personal issues and I haven’t had the mind set to write about school or coping because honestly, I was trying to figure it out myself. I’m still trying to figure…

Need a little Pick Me Up Between Study Sessions

This yoga video is one that I have done many times, especially when I’m starting to feel a little discouraged or down on myself. I highly, highly recommend giving it a shot! I just did this last night and it’s what I believe gave me the motivation to write another blog. Adriene’s yoga videos have…

Staying strong

This past week I had two exams, back to back. I had health assessment Monday and patho physiology Tuesday. So, the weekend prior I studied for both tests. I will admit I studied for my health assessment class a bit more thoroughly. However, that doesn’t mean I excluded my patho physiology test material I needed…

Studying Tips

Saunders Comprehensive Review for the NCLEX-RN (Saunders Comprehensive Review for Nclex-Rn) This book is going to be my best friend throughout nursing school (I love colors so I thought it was a must to have my hair match the book in the picture). Every time I’ve needed clarification on anything thus far this book as…

2nd Week

Alright. Second week down. First couple exams this week in addition to make up classes. This week was another full week. But I did it, I did well on my exams, I don’t have any missing assignments, we’re getting the internet system figured out. I think the positives of this week override the negatives, the…
