ITS OVERRRR!!!
The 1st semester of nursing school is over, but…its only just the beginning. I’ll be honest, it was tough as hell!! But..it wasn’t hell, the only reason it was as hard as it was is because I made it hard on myself. I could have done better, I could have studied much earlier than what I did, I could have been prepared more than I was. Many shoulda woulda couldas. But….ITS OVER, done with, and past me.
To the good news, I PASSED!! Got an A in clinical, I’m pretty sure I got an A in skills, and then there’s lecture. I PASSED!! I got a final grade of an 82, one point shy of a B. You would think, wait, 82 = B. NOPE, over here at this nursing program (I’m not too sure if its the same for all ADN programs) a B = 83-92, an A = 93+. Yah, WHAT KINDA SHIT IS THAT??? Yahhhh…my 1st C that I HAVE TO settle with since I’ve been in college. MY FIRST “C”!! Sucks ass, but..at least I’m moving on to the 2nd semester. Thats what really matters. If I wouldn’t have got this C then I would have failed, not had the chance to go on to the 2nd semester, and I would have been stuck repeating this semester over again.
Thats why I’ve been on hiatus for so long. Had way too many sleepless nights studying, waking up at 500AM just to be sure to drive to school on time, get out of class, get ready to pick up Kim, fit in studying while taking care of her. All you mommies out there that are students know what I’m talking about. I’d have an average of 3-5 hrs. of sleep a night. But I’m sure thats how it is when you’re a full-time student in a degree program that totally kicks ass and has a bitchy ass punk of a teacher for lecture!! Whole other story!!!
HAPPY BELATED MOMMY’S DAY to all the mommies that I love & care for. Hope that everybody got what they wanted and deserved. Quang & I are doing as good as we could be doing. He got me the Paris Hilton perfume gift set. Smells good, it fits my perfume personality. Of course he likes it, so of course I like it. Just surprised that he actually picked something out for me. It would have been nice if I had a sparkling diamond ring around my ring finger, but hey…..something is better than nothing.
Kim is doing great. She’s the one that told me Quang was getting me something. I called her after I had a study group wondering where they were. At first she told me they were at the toy store and, “daddy is buying me a toy.” So I assumed they were at Toys-R-Us. Then she says, “We’re at the mall buying you a surprise.” WHAT A SWEETIE, telling me all the details. Then they finally get home I go into the room and see chocolates on the computer desk. Kimmie goes, “Mommy, these are for you, HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!!” I’m like, really?? She goes, “No mommy, I’m just joking!!” Then she tells me my gift is in the truck and its a rose. Hehehe!! Then Quang comes out with my gift, too bad no rose. Hehehe!! But it was just cute that she busted the surprise. I gotta take a picture of the Mother’s Day gift Kimmie gave me. I still have to find a frame for it, I LOVE IT!!
There have been some things going on in my family right now. I’ll talk about it as soon as I really know what the facts are, whats really going on. I feel like I should share it, and the many things I share because I feel that there could be someone out there that feels the same way I do, thats going through the same thing I am, and they can have somebody to relate to and find some sort of comfort in that. Or I could find solice and comfort in somebody I can relate to. I’ll definitely update soon. I’ll comment on everybody’s xanga, sorry I haven’t had the chance to comment lately. But you all know how it is…STUDY STUDY STUDY!! Gotta get that degree and be one hell of a nurse.
