I had a mini-stroke today (I think) after I bought my class notes and saw the redonkulous amount of work I have headed for me this semester, not including clinicals. In the temporary fugue state (ha!) that followed, I began to reminisce about days of yore, when I was an art and psychology major. Those were the days! If only I had it so good now.
If you have been to college previously, remember when:
- You thought getting up to be on time for a 9:00 A.M. class was just ungodly early?
- You NEVER bought class materials three weeks before school started? I could have cared less what was going to be going on in the semester, and it was never stressful enough to warrant such measures.
- You spent most of your time hanging out with friends, girlfriends/boyfriends, day dreaming, napping, doing almost anything but studying (and still managed to pass everything)?
- You could actually have a beer on a school night without fear of passing out, from the alcohol combining with utter exhaustion?
- You didn't have to organize everything to death and schedule every waking moment for something school-related?
- You totally didn't get those people who had to get an A in every class?
-You felt sorry for those poor schmucks who were nursing majors because they had to get up SOOOO early in the morning and write care plans?
It's amazing where nursing school takes us! Anyone else want to play along?
