Eager to graduate

Published

Hey all....I have 7 weeks left before I graduate and I'm so eager to be done it is unbelievable. I have already accepted a position in OB. I'm having a hard time staying focused because I already have a job in the field of nursing that I want. I know I have to pass my last two classes to graduate so I think that is what is keeping me going. My very last class in my rotation is OB so that won't be a problem. Right now I'm precepting and I'm having a hard time focusing on my patient care because I'm not passionate about med-surg nursing. Has this happened to anyone else and what did you do?

Oh good lord yes. I , too, have 7 weeks left and I am the BIGGEST procrastinator right now. I have accepted a position in the NICU and my last 7 weeks are Renal/Neuro/Oncology/Emergency/Management. I couldnt feel any more DONE right now then I already do. I am DREADING going back on Monday ( we are off this week between mini-mesters). We took our final yesterday and I swear I felt like I had a CVA right in the middle of it. It's like I could feel synapses in my brain just smoking. Haha. I hear you...I am DONE. DONE...... in 7 more weeks. What I do is remind myself everyday that EVERYDAY is ONE DAY CLOSER to the end.

Let them fly by fast please.

Good luck to you...I'm right there with ya.

I know the feeling. I hated my psych rotation. I have zero interest in working as a psych nurse. But don't let something that you don't like hold you back. Stay focused, because if you gof-forbid don't pass then you have to do that rotation over again and that really won't be any fun.
