I just started school ( Practical Nursing Program) Last Thursday... September third
It's really overwhelming. We only have two classes a day... it doesn't seem like a lot when I say two classes, right? well, they're both about three hours long. We do get a full hour lunch break
but there is a ton of work, and i feel overwhelmed.
Right now I have a class called VR (vocational relationships) and that's basically just all about how nursing started, nursing laws and ethics... HIPPA (thats the privacy policy medical people must uphold.. basically... we dont tell anyone anything unless you gave us specific permission to do so)
and thats not terrible.. its a review since I'm a medical assisstant and had to learn this stuff for that
We also have an Anatomy and Physiology... my dad used to clean dorm rooms at a nursing school, and said the nursing students all took the class and called it agravation and persecution.
Its a really hard class. We have to learn one chapter within a day or two... a whole entire body system
and I've had school from 8-3 everyday... and then come home and do homework for 4 or five hours
basically this is just a vent, but feel free to respond... or share if your feeling overwhelmed with the new classes your taking, new school... some of you maybe new in college
some of you already knew i'm really not on much anymore (the girls that read my fan fics)
