Okay. It has been a while but I have been busy. From February on, I have been minor-ly spiralling my way through the semester. Now I am over 3 weeks out of the semester and I am two full weeks into my first practicum. I am taking a small break from an assignment for the week, I had another one due on thursday a few days ago. I also have two due next thursday and one last one the thursday after that. I am getting through these things but that isn't too bad, I only have 6 assignments total over my 5 week practicum and then I am done school from the summer. This first practicum is different from any of the other ones I will do over the next three years. The next ones are going to be focused more on areas where we may want to work or just choices over a few different nursing areas. This one is in long term care and it is going fine. I do not see myself working in long term care, especially right now with COVID, it seems like a prison and I couldn't do it. It is going fine, I am glad there are some opportunities for family visits, though social distanced and with masks. I think the rest of my practicum will go well but I am excited to be done and work this summer.

February 25th 2021

It has been super busy but I am taking a short break so I thought it would be fine to talk about my last week or so. So reading week was not a break, it never really is and I think that this year is so ridiculously stressful and having not even two weeks between semesters and then a week reading break where we have multiple assignments due is hard to deal with. I am extremely burnt out and yesterday was a bad day for me. It started off pretty good with a new lab teacher (she is fantastic btw) and an interesting lab. Then I came home and I had a class that was not great for me. I had done the prep during reading week and didn't really get it, then I was super confused in class and it really took all that I had in me to keep my camera on and not cry. Then because I was confused and having a hard time focusing, I forgot to speak (which we are being graded on for this class). That then sent me spiralling a bit after class and it took me a long time to calm down and for the rest of the evening it felt like my chest was in a vice grip, so love that for me. Anyways, at least today is going better. It is a practice day so I did my one zoom and now I am eating lunch and having a cup of tea (too cold and too weak) while watching an episode of Law and Order. I have another zoom in the afternoon, then I have some work to do, but then I am done for the night. My next day I will have to do work on a few projects but that is okay. I can't wait to be done this semester in 6-7 weeks. I hope practicum doesn't make me cry too bad, otherwise I will have to wait until June for a real break (not including work and volunteering). Anyways, here's to hoping.

It has been a while, I have been very busy recently but now it is my reading break/spring break (even though it is mid February). I took yesterday to do mostly nothing but work on my quilt, which was a very nice day. Today and for a good part of the rest of the week, I will need to play catch up because I had fallen a bit behind in my class work. I have a list to get done, but most importantly for today, I am having a socially distanced dinner with my best friend who I haven't seen since late November, early December. That is very exciting for me, we are exchanging christmas gifts too which should be fun, I made her a cute little crochet gnome and I think she will like it. I am excited for what I am going to learn in the rest of the semester , but I do not feel like I had a break and I am running on fumes. I am very frustrated with the whole situation and I am hoping that this summer will be refreshing enough for me to not feel awful in third semester. Though I do have to say that I doubt that because with all hopes I will be working two jobs and getting some volunteer work in. Overall, I cannot wait for a break.

January 8th 2021

So I finished my finals in December and had a peaceful break, now I have had my first week back in classes. I plan on restarting my 100 days of productivity because even though I am pretty sure I kept up and stayed productive, I would rather start over this year. I think I will start up again on Sunday or Monday because that will be more round than starting now. I have had a good break and I hope anyone who sees this also had a good and calm break. This year has already been pretty nuts, so I am hoping it is going to improve because I am not liking this list of crazy things that I have seen happen in the world. A coup, a pandemic, all of the other crazy stuff that has happened recently. Here is to hoping this year will be calm, calm is all I want and to be able to go to school (not online) next school year.

Wow, busy busy times.

I guess I have missed writing quite a few of my days of productivity and of the Winter Studying Challenge, but I may miss some more because of school right now. I had my last class on wednesday and then I have been studying for my exams since. I am also waiting for my current grades in the classes that I have exams so that I can see how bad I can possibly do and still do semi decent in my overall grade. I have so many assignments that I haven't recieved back, that is fine for the class or two that I do not have a final for but I would like my final grade before the exam for the other classes. Anyways, I hope everything goes well on my first exam period of nursing school. I have also, way too late by the way, been looking at the few new textbooks I need for the winter semester. I should probably order those soon.

Also, I am getting so close to my goal for reading books this year. I, as of last night, have read 20/24 books this year. I have a few on hold from my library and hope to loan them out soon and then I have a few at home I could read as well. We will see what gets read by the end of the year.

And I think it shows what type of year it has been with my song that I cry to, Sunflower, being my most listened to song of the year. Hahah

@myhoneststudyblr Winter Studying Challenge

What is your least favourite thing about winter?

The driving, as I mentioned last post. You would think people have never seen snow in their life before whenever the first snow hits. The amount of times I have almost been hit because people don't know how to drive in this weather. Also I live in Canada, you would think people would be used to the snow, the only exceptions should be the people from the coast who don't ever get snow.

It was 16.10 when I took this picture, I brought over this little light and some fairy lights because I had to have my camera on in class but it was so dark.

What is your favourite thing about winter?

I love sitting inside by the fire with a cozy blanket, tea, and a good book. Sadly I won't have much time for that this year but I do want to take at least one day on my break to do just that. Winter break for me this year isn't even two weeks long so that sucks.

Very exciting!

here is my brand new challenge! i’ve known that i was going to do this challenge since i started my summer challenge in july so i am so psyched to be able to finally share it with you guys! i hope that you will enjoy it <3

DISCLAIMER: lots of the prompts in December are to do with Christmas because that is what i celebrate at this time of year. i was very aware of that when i was writing the prompts but i did not think that knew enough about other festivals and holidays at this time to write prompts about them. i did not want any prompts i made to be disrespectful. if you don’t celebrate Christmas, please know that this challenge is still for you! you can either just use the prompts anyway (if they are applicable) or adapt them to fit the festival or holiday that you celebrate. if it is impossible to adapt, then simply tell me about what you celebrate because i am excited to learn about them! [this was edited later because i realised i forgot to add it - thank you to the anon who queried this issue for reminding me <3]
