Mainly studying. My fall classes were late start so I won't be finished with them until Jan. By that time I will also have started on some of my spring semester prereqs so it will be a hectic new year but I look forward to it coz it brings me one step closer to nursing school. :)

I'm taking a week to myself without even thinking about picking up a book. After my week of relaxation it's time to put my game face back on:smokin: and start brushing up on med term, anatomy & physiolgy, med calculations, and med abbr.

My next semester starts Jan 12th which is my first semester of nursing school.:yeah:Other than that, for a week I'm planning to relax and will be doing things like this :sleep::tbsk::onbch:

I'm daily working my way through:

'Get Ready for A&P'

"An Intro to Chem for Bio Students'

'Chemistry for Dummies'

'Cliffs StudySolver, chemistry'

and I'm taking notes and studying my textbook for A&PI. I would love to be reading something fun, but I seriously want A's in these classes, so that's where I'm focused right now. Semester starts Jan 19th for me. I am however taking tomorrow off to pick up my Mom from the airport and the 25th, of course! :D

Specializes in Surgical/Trauma ICU.

I'm taking a CNA class at the local Red Cross. Every night (M-F) from 4-8. Also working on studying for anatomy. I got the textbook and (luckily, i didn't get in at first, but someone dropped and i snagged the spot) got a spot in a class. Excited and scared for next semester!

Specializes in ICU/UM.

I'm sitting with my sprained ankle elevated. Just what I wanted for Christmas. It's swollen and bruised from my ankle to my toenails. I'm Frankenfoot.

I also registered for my NLN-PAX in January. Yikes.

I'm going to relax, refresh, and release, lol! I've already started reading a book I've been wanting to read for pleasure (The Coldest Winter Ever by Sistah Souljah).

I'm also going home to Oklahoma to visit the fam for a few days!
