Clinicals

So ... I don't really like theory so far but our clinicals (working at the hospital) is going well. I have had more opportunity this quarter to do more interesting skills such as IVs, enemas (fun, fun), lab draws, IV meds and etc. My instructor is WAY laid back which is a good and bad. I am not too stressed out while we are there but I don't really feel like I learn anything at all from him. I try to ask the nurses on the floor questions when there is down time but some of them are too busy or not very good at or even interested in "teaching". All in all I'm hanging in there. I am still not very motivated ... I'm hoping that kicks in soon before I get myself too far behind & into trouble.

Motivation

Well I started my 4th quarter of nursing school, the break was far to short. I am finding it hard to be motivated! I'm not exactly sure what the problem is but that is not a great start. The main teacher this quarter seems to have it together and that is at least exciting! :o) I am going to start working out on Monday ... hopefully that should help!
