getchur head in the game!

...Nope, not high school musical,...this is [[real life]] !!



Stress Stress Stress,...if i'm not stressing, something isn't right.

School is going so good so far, really busy and new teachers for some material so i'm learning differently and I'm learning so much!

Im finally getting the "NURSE MENTALITY" ....thinking as a whole and with evidence based practice. It's been tough but i feel like I'm changing my thinking process into NURSING PROCESS. ((this makes no sense to non-medical students)) But it's a good feeling!

Banner Hospital has been amazing!! I start my first official shift this week and the journey here has been long but finally ill be on the specialty unit volunteering 4 hours a day to making someones day a little brighter. I probably have no time for volunteering, but I'd feel selfish not doing it. As an RN i am IN and OUT of my patients room,..i'd LOVE to sit and chat with them but my work load only allows me to be in their room as long as a procedure takes. I'd love to sit down and talk about their likes, family and all that fun stuff but you just can't. No time. So what better way to fulfill my desire to spend more time with my patients than to volunteer. I can finally sit down and talk to them about how they like painting, birds and nail polish without thinking "oh crap, i have 5 minutes to pull out the meds for room 213!" . Doing my orientations, interviews and walk arounds at the hospital has been great:: the Doctors are SO nice, the RN's love giving me advice and the spirit of help and love is truly felt. At least, I feel it :)

BOYS::....I don't have an interest...a special interest on any guy at the moment. I've been meeting so many different guys and they're all great and so fun to hang out with. But that's the problem, HANGING OUT. General Authorities have talked to us about this several times, to stop hanging out and DATE. But not much i can do, not my fault i dont get asked on dates. (or is it?) HA! point is, IM SO HAPPY NOT HAVING A GUY TO WORRY ABOUT RIGHT NOW. my mind is fully focused on my career. Full speed RN student starting a new hospital rotation, working full time with children that have Autism and Volunteering in a specialized Cardiac Unit...HELLO SELF. I ROCK!! And not having the GUY to worry about has been so nice, i am happy being single (not like i have been miserable) but i feel GOOD not needing someone or worrying about having to impress the guy i like. THIS IS SO NICE. and i feel like i've been meeting lots of guys. SO i guess, not looking results in actually meeting guys. regardless, im so happy right now.


Some DANCE DANCE DANCE in my life. Awww yeahhh!! I am not a trained dancer nor do I intend to be. But dancing for pure fun and to let go, to dance with reason and leave it on the dance floor...yeah boi, that is the greatest!! Im once again in Christian Dance Company and dancing through my testimony of my Savior is a blessing. I have a special angel I'm dancing for this year and I can't wait for performances. I dance with a group called Manic Monday and it works me out!! Calli is an amazing teacher with AMAZING talent and is so well rounded. I always enjoy those classes and leave drenched in yummy sweat. Also, ZUMBA!! gotta work the latina hips, right? haha i love dance! Monday-Thursday nights are my favorite ;)


My head is in the game of life and i am succeeding. RN, working with children that have Autism and spreading Autism awareness, Volunteering every week and dancing. Oh yes, I am happy :-)
