Confession...okay more of a gripe

So I confess...I am not a very good blogger. However, I am a fairly good student, which explains my lack of blogging here lately. Maybe I should rename the blog from "chronicles of" to the "occasional rantings of an allusive student nurse." Hmmm, I think it's kinda of catchy :)

A few other blogs I read occasionally just stop at random points, and I wonder if they are in the same boat as me? Or are they not posting because they are no longer on the student nurse to registered nurse path? Rest assured my loyal readers (all 10 of you) I am still trudging away, just busy as all hell!

I can't believe how much work there is actually to do! Three weeks ago I wrote all the assignments due for each class in my weekly planner, color coded to match each class...yup, I still have a migraine from it!

I feel it is taking everything I can offer just to try and keep my head above water. There is this overwhelming sense of overall disappointment, looming over my household. I feel guilty "hiding" in my room behind a mountain of books instead of crawling around outside intriguing the young minds of my kiddos. Or when I do take some time off of school the work, it is always in my brain that I should have a book in hand. Any other task, not involving nursing, never really gets my full undivided attention.

Something has to give, I am crossing my fingers and toes hoping it wont be my sanity! There are still 11 more months to graduation and pinning! I find it befitting that we are studying hypertension this week. I think I need to re-review the signs and symptoms of prehypertension for a little self diagnosis.

Alright this has completely veered off the intended topic and I end the complaining here. Back to the books...I have to find someway to cram all the information required to pass two exams on Monday, into a already nearly necrotic brain.
