I'm diagnosing myself with burning out related to ineffective coping with stress secondary to nursing school as evidenced by excessive fatigue, "doh!" moments, and whining.
This isn't a good time for me, I've got 2 group presentations, 6 essays for the take home final, 2 more assignment for research class, and 3 final exams in the next 3 weeks. Lord help me....

A blog about a less clueless new RN paddling her ways through the what's and how's of this profession.
About Me
- Cee
- I transferred to a School of Nursing the summer of 2007, and that was when I started this blog to journal my journey to become a nurse. In May of 2009, I finished that journey. I am now a Registered Nurse, and a new journey as a RN awaits. The question "What Have I Gotten Myself Into?" continues to resurface during nursing school until now (and probably forever). Nursing, such a profession that's full of everything and anything. Yet, I love it. Nursing aside, I'm a twenty something year old girl who is enjoying her life. I love to spend my free time discovering new places to eat with friends (we love food and desserts!), watching movies, writing, and curling up on the couch by the window with a book. And I love to spend a much longer free time traveling.
