3 more days until summer break.

I am going to cook real meals that do not come from a box and require some time and skill. I'm going to read fun books, and I hope to finish Game of Thrones (the books, not the tv series). I am going to teach my son how to play monopoly. Finally, I'm going to swim. I've missed swimming.

What are your plans?

Well I know what I am going to do. Catch up on my lost sleep and go out for a change. Get to know my neighbors who never see me and probably think I am a shut in. In a way, I guess I am.

I'm taking an upper division class so I won't have to take it while also doing my nursing classes that start in the fall! There's a plan to go to Canada in there somewhere, as well... I also plan on catching up with all the shows I've neglected, reading some books for fun, refreshing myself from my Anat/Phys notes and hopefully reading a little ahead in my nursing text books.

My summer break will be all about recovering from my first year of nursing school. That will probably include catching up on sleep, reading a book for pleasure, reviewing meds (my Achilles' heel), catching up on sleep, Kaplan remediations, NCLEX questions, catching up on my TV shows, trying to squeeze some of my old hobbies in (including hiking with my family & photography), and catching up on sleep. :up:

Specializes in Oncology/StemCell Transplant; Psychiatry.

I start a paid internship at the hospital I will be working at after graduation next spring. The internship starts at the end of May. In the meantime, I'm working my other job and studying for the NCLEX-PN (we have the option of taking it after we finish half of our nursing program). I'm going to try to get that out of the way early in the summer because I start my online Statistics class on May 27!
