Today is the big day.

Published

I start class today. I took one quarter off. The quarter before I was in the surgical tech program but still had a few classes to take and several quarters before they started the next program. So, I took one class that quarter, medical terminology. All my Englishes, math, and all of those classes were taken a long time ago and I don't have to repeat them. So, it is pretty much like being a new student again. I am so nervous it isn't even funny. I usually don't get like this either.

I have 4 health science classes this quarter and next quarter I start nursing classes.

Thanks.

My head is going to explode. I had a book to read in one class tonight, plus 3 assignments. I have to learn some formulas for drug calculation practically overnight. I have 3 chapters to read tonight in A&P, plus multiple message board assignments due today and tomorrow. My nutrition class is not available online yet. I have had a horrible headache all day so that does not help at all. We have to pass skills assessments with a 100 or we fail them and if we don't pass 6 out of 10 skills, we fail the class (Intro to Health Care). I don't think it will be as hard or stressful after we actually start learning tomorrow. Just being given so much information, the requirements, and then so much work to do before actually getting any instruction is a bit overwhelming and intimidating. The information itself didn't seem that hard to grasp though. In intro to health care it is all about pathogens and stuff that we had to read and work on tonight. It is tedious, but not hard to grasp.

Anyway, it took way too long to get finished with this work tonight though. My husband had to help my daughter with her homework so I could do mine... that just seems so backwards, lol.

I'm really tired now. I do hope it eases up a bit, but I preparing myself for the possibility that is will not.

I really like my classmates though. They all seem so focused.
