Best time of the year to take long romanticized walks (and procrastinate writing).

oh btw just in case nobody ever told you. just because your life looks different than you thought it would doesn't mean that your life is bad or wrong or disappointing or less than. sometimes things aren't good or bad. sometimes they're just different

✨12/8/2022, Week 21 of Fall Semester✨

Phew! Where do I even begin? 😅 Hello, friends! I believe I should begin with an apology for my sudden lack of posts. I have been swamped with class work and just making it through day by day, week by week. We are currently 4 days away from the Adult health II final that is the last barrier between me and level 4! It’s incredible how fast this semester has flown by- I feel like we just started yesterday. I have learned so much and thankfully, I’ve been scoring mid to high 80s on the rest of the exams since that first one back in September that I posted about but I missed one because I became unexpectedly and extremely sick, so I need to make a 74 on my 100 question final, so I’ve been largely dedicated to refreshing on everything in the course- specifically cardiac because of that initial poor exam grade.

I have also been taking an additional course outside of the nursing program that has snatched up every morsel of spare time, but it has been extremely helpful in teaching me how to write a resume, cover letters, inquiry letters, and thank you notes. We have also been efficiently taught how to answer behavioral interview questions by our instructor having us write answers to common vague prompts so we have a story toolbox and are the best prepared for interviews, which will be perfect for me as a level 4 student next semester!

I hope you are all doing well, and again, I’m very sorry for the unexpected prolonged hiatus! Best of luck to everyone with finals and to those who have finished, congratulations!! Treat yourself with kindness and celebrate your victories with a nice winter break. For those who keep going throughout December, I wish you all the very best in your studies and also encourage you to take breaks when you can even if it is just to enjoy a small cup of hot chocolate.

[ 12. 5. 22. ] End of Semester!

Woohoo! We finished off pretty strong. (knowledge +1) These past two months have been hectic and crazy for me. I am not the best at relaxing. In other news, I’ve been playing Dragon Age and have fallen in love with it; I am bound to make a fanfiction of it someday! Maybe over the course of the next few days before the next semester starts.

What does self care look like to you?

'Tis the season ❄️🥂

This semester has been hectic af. Passed the graduation exam, my thesis/experiment proposal approved, halfway done with my experiments.

Mental health is okay. Probably due to the fact that I keep on reminding myself that I only have a few months left before going home for good so might as well be present, embrace and feel it all. Feeling happy, sad, worried.

I wish I had this mindset all the time!
