Busy busy

Classes are all over, exam time and next week I am on placement for five weeks: ED, very excited but very nervous.

Better go do some work:)

Tena Koutou

Eight days........that is how many is left until my literature review is due, and yes I am procrastinating, since logging onto computer I have read 1oo Maori words every New Zealander should know, checked emails, facebook, moodle ( tech site) and basically mucked around.

I am also a terrible blogger, d o not get here much now, but I will try to more frequently.

I have been sick for just under a couple of weeks, with some kind of flu even though I had my flu injection, so I have missed a couple of days of tech because of this , I am going back tomorrow, I hate missing classes, it takes so long to catch up again.

Haere ra

School is ...............

Pretty hectic, I have finished week one, which zoomed past.

In three weeks I have a literature review due. I have chosen the topic 'Best nursing practice in the administration of sucrose in neonates / premature infants'. I am not sure what angle I am taking for this and I still am not even sure on how to write a literature review, we have not had to do one yet.

Patho is good, very interesting, and the other paper middle and older adult (MOA) is ok. On the 31st of August I start working in ED for five weeks for my practicum placement. That will come up in no time, the last week went so fast.

Wahoo!

I am officially a year three student nurse :)

After a two week break, I will be taking three papers:
Pathophysiology
Nursing Research
Nursing middle and older adults

I am still waiting on a few marks to come back.

My motivation is back

I guess that eventually happens when you know in order to pass you need to actually do some work!

I am currently finishing my last assignment for year two and studying for two exams, the first one is tommorrow.

By next Tuesday I will be officially finished year two, a two week holiday and OH MY GOSH I am in year three I can hardly believe it. When I started year one, year three seemed like a far of dream and now I am actually there. I am really looking forward to it, I have my text books and study guides, and planned to start reading in the holidays, just so I feel like I am ahead with the work load when I start.

Anyway better go, family to organize, daughter off to party and the rest are going our for a few hours to give me some peace, ahhhhh I can hardly wait.

MOTIVATION

I need some, I have to study, I have to finish my PNR and the family study. I cant be bothered. But time is ticking. It is freezing and raining leaves. The first day of winter starts tomorrow, summer went so fast.

I am going to miss the babies

One more day to go and I am finished my clinical placement, I really enjoyed the work I did there and the patients that I was looking after but not so much the nursing staff. Anyway just part of the learning experience.

Very tired goodnight.
