Time flys..

I'm in a little bit of shock with the fact that this is not my fifth week at university, It is literally flying by soo quickly its a little hard to believe. I was told it would but still it's a little shocking! My next six weeks of so will be busy so trying to keep organised. Its going to go like this..

1. 28th October: Mock exam for anatomy and physiology in 3 weeks... AND BREATHE
2. 11th November: The actual exam.
3. 16th November: Clinical skills week (EXCITED)
4. 23rd November: Placement starts.. (even more EXCITED) 
5. 7th December: Graduate skills assignment due
6. 11th January: 2 weeks annual leave (consisting on sleep!)

Its funny really but everyone asks me how its going and and ho I am, and my answer is its great but I'm soo busy and tired but not in a bad way. At that point you can [insert funny look they give me]. I'm tired in a good way because i know its what I ant to do and I'm working towards it although its stressful and hectic, I've worked in healthcare for four years now and stressful and hectic is normal to me. It pushes me and lets me improve the way I do things so I don't see it as a bad thing. 

I seem to be following my own advice so far, I've stayed organised (for the most part), I've de-stressed (usually with a very bubbly bath and a glass of Malibu and lemonade) and I know why I'm doing this. I'd say I'm more determined to get through it and because a Nurse as planned. The support from family friends and work colleagues has been great I couldn't be happier with the people in my life.

Just for context my route into nursing is innovative not just because of my secondment with Spiral health but also with the fact that the University of Bolton in partnership with Lancashire teaching hospitals is the first to offer non-commisioned nursing programme
