I have to ask, does anyone else have a hard time after spring break? Do you find yourself not into school anymore and if so, what do you do to get back into the good mode? I had break a month ago, got ahead on my reading, did some clinical hours and wrote a paper but I can't get excited again. I have lost that school itch and I desperately need to get it back. How do I get myself out of this slump?

Yes that happened to me!!! I dont know how to get out of it either because im still in it. Which is horrible because school ends in a month!
Sometimes I wish we would have never had spring break.
A couple other classmates and I agrred that we would rather have longer weekends throughout the semester than have spring break. I just don't understand why this happens every year-I use the time to get ahead so it's not like I sit around for the whole week. Uggh....

I hope someone responds with some good advice because I'm in your situation too. The past month since spring break has been hard. I've been beaten with a lazy stick!

I am usually highly motivated and such, but I too have found that after spring break I have been in a slump. I know this is no reason to complain, but I always make A's on my tests and last week I made an 88. I know that is still pretty good but, I usually study until I know every bit of the material. I have found after returning from spring break I just am having a difficult time concentration. Plus I am stressed because letters for acceptance/declination go out april 15th, so I have been consumed with anxiety thinking about being accepted into the nursing program. I have to change my thoughts and focus on the goal. I think I will watch Rocky I it usually gives me motivation. I don't even want to think about how I will feel if the letter is of rejection-oh my lord help me!! I must think acceptance, acceptance. After acceptance I will definately get a kick of adrenaline. Well I guess I will just sink myself into the material of ap II. Emerging myself into it usually spawns such curiosity and amazement of the human body, that I become saturated with thought and ideas. So, bring on the urinary and lymphatic systems, I am out to conquer!!
