Medical Surgical Nursing I-almost over!

I know it's been forever since i last updated. I have been up and down and all over the place. Caught up and what not. Sometimes I feel like days just fly by with me doing alot of nothing. But, what do I know about that? I haven't been able to update because this has been a very intensive class. I've had exams since week one and now that week 8 is here it can't get more hectic. I also stopped updating my clinical rotations because somehow it got old. Plus I had a journal due every Friday by 5pm.

My final exam is on Saturday. This week so far I've had so much to do besides reading for the final exam. Monday I worked until 1pm and had lecture night until 10pm. Tuesday, I went to the auditorium-total knee replacement surgery. Afterwards I went to the Library, then computer lab. Today, wednesday I went and got my last Hep B shot and my Flu shot. When I got there the health-provider told me they had stopped issuing Hep shots to adults. Darn it! She asked me how old I was and told me to hold up a minute. When she left I prayed and told God to please grant me His favor. She came back and said yes I could have the shot. Thank you God! I asked if I could also get the flu shot and she asked if i was a health provider. I told her well no but I was a nursing stu so I was equally at risk. She agreed to let me get both done. Yaay! All praise, glory and honor to God. So I got both of them on the L arm.

It's my first time to get a Flu shot. I hope and pray it doesn't make me sick as it does some people. It reacts differently with everyone and I hope It reacts well w/my body. I got waivered for both shots. Yes! God loves me.

After the shots I hit the library. I am reading like crazy. I am glad I didn't have to go to work this past 2 days because I don't know how I'd have managed. I am graetful to God for making a way and letting everything concide like it did. I have read almost everything post-midterm so far. I now need to review all pre-midterm chapters. I also need to review the group-questions and my flashcards. Tomorrow when I get off clinicals God-willing I will review some of the remaining chapters. I plan on going to the library this Friday all day. I'll go and borrow the Lewis book so I review all the chapters just in case he left out something on the slides.

I didn't do great on most if not all of the previous exams we've been doing. As usual Ionly used the ati-book to study for the exams. I couldn't afford the textbook when the class started. I am graetful to God that I have bought my textbooks for the next class already.They should come in the mail anytime.

I hope and pray to get an A in my final.

Oh and I did my careplan and for once I got an excellent on my reference page. Now how cool is that? Usually, that's where I lose all my points. Thank you God! I got it now. I won't have anymore stress with the careplans anymore. Woot! It gets better with time I presume. Plus I borrowed the "All in one nursing care plan" text from the lib. Woohoo!

I pray me excellence,spiritual leak, great understanding of each of the 80ques(yes there's going to be 80ques on the final exam), great memory, great elimination method, and correct interpretation of each question. The more ques there is on the final the better chance everyone has to do great!

Can you believe this class ends Saturday, 11/18. It just barely started!!!

Hopefully I'll be back to update how the final exam was and how I did.

I can do all things throught Christ who is my strength.

GO ME!
