Blogiversary!

Today marks my one-year blogiversary!

today is also:
- Easter sunday (obviously)
- Five days after my final nursing school evaluation (I passed!)
- 48 days until my wedding!!
- Two weeks(ish) until I am eligible to start working as a nurse.

All of these big changes and plans have got me in a bit of a tizzy of anxiety lately. I have been trying not to stress over not having any money and not having a job yet or even a remote idea of when a job might come my way, but to little avail. I have constant butterflies in my stomach and a tight feeling in my chest, and am finding myself fighting not to cry over nothing several times a day.

I've been finding focus in doing yoga a couple times a week, and I made up this little poster to hang in my bedroom to remind me every day:

because, well........ it is.

Overwhelmed.

have been a bad girl. This semester for me was seriously backloaded in terms of due dates, and therefore, in the next twenty-two days, I have the following to do:

1. 8-10 page paper on hospice care
2. In-class presentation about hospice care, followed by a 4-page reflection about said presentation
3. In-class presentation about the need to bring back professional nursing associations in Canada
4. Reflective practice Narrative re: something, anything I have done in Practicum
5. Short in-class presentation related to my practicum
6. 10-page critique of 2 research articles
7. Final practicum self-evaluation
8. Prepare a teaching plan and teach 6 classes of high school kids about healthy relationships, birth control, nutrition, and Diabetes (not all on the same day).

Um, yikes. Where was my foresight? Wish me luck! It may be a while until you see me here again - 22 days, perhaps. Good thing I didn't commit to NaBloPoMo.
