So I'm over it. I'm starting week 5 of the 3rd semester (1 more to go) and I'm literally having to wake up every morning and give myself a lecture/pep talk about going to school/studying or what not. Don't get me wrong- I want to be a RN, but I'm just tired of school. It doesn't help that we are moving out of state when I graduate- SO has a fantastic job offer that he has put off to wait for me to finish school, we have a beautiful house waiting- literally our dream house- and an entire network of friends where we are moving. So I'm literally chomping at the bit to "get on with it" if you know what I mean. Anyone else feeling this way? Its not like I'm slacking or even considering not finishing, but I just feel like May is forever away, especially since every day I really, just REALLY don't want to go to school.

Specializes in Geriatrics, Cardiac, ICU.

I totally understand.

I am so tired of my one bedroom apartment with three people in it.

I am so tired of writing papers, doing busy work, and not being able to do total care for my patients (in our program, we can't do IV pushes alone and I feel like I'm missing out on a lot).

I am the most tired of being broke.

It will soon be over in December.

Specializes in Med-Surg, ER, Mental Health.

That is EXACTLY how I'm feeling!

I just want to get out there and be a 'real' nurse...I, too, feel like all these essays and crap are just 'busy work'.

I just keep telling myself that the first three years went quickly, so these last few months will, too. :)

Hang in there...we will be finished soon!
