I can't relax!!!

I have a 2 month break until the Semester starts. I usually embrace my summer break and relax, but I can't!! All I can think of is getting through next semester prereqs, nursing school, nursing books, and anything related to nursing. I read through the nursing handbook at my college, reading old syllabus', looking at youtube videos that are nurse related, reading allnurses all day long, and I've already got my book for next semester and started reading that!! I want to get books already, buy a stethoscope! Applying to nursing school is at least a year away from me..LOL. So what is up with me??

I try to do something else, but I keep getting drawn in. I'm sure this isn't good.

Now I seem crazy lol

The time will go by super fast. Last fall it seemed like forever til I woujd get my prereqs done and now I start in a couple of months. But I also focused on mt current classes and was busy with my son. So I am always going sonewhere and doing something. Live every day to the fullest. So go and have fun!!!

Go out and have some fun now because your free time for such things will be very limited once you start back.

I wish I could go out and have fun! All I can think about is nursing school.

I'm starting my last two preqs this fall and then applying to my program. I'm just like you! Anxious and twiddling my thumbs! :wacky:

I have one week left of summer classes and will then be spending time at the beach. Reading a book and listening to the waves crash on the beach will be my relaxation. School will be out of sight & mind for 8 glorious weeks :)

I understand how you feel exactly! I'm the same way. I'm trying to relax though. It's not easy, I'm too nervous :)

I was the same way but not until I got into my program. I was much more chill during pre reqs. Now it's insanity times 10 and fighting burnout. :sleep:

Please take the time you have now to do....whatever you want. You think you are a reck now, think about when its time for boards. Pray, read a book, go on vacation.
