So I half expected the second half of the semester to be less stressful since I have 3 less credits than before, but boy was I wrong. I guess it's a little less stress since I have a little less homework, but it is still pretty darn stressful and busy! I lost a day of class, but it just turned into another day of homework. For some reason, my online teacher thinks that we need to have more reading homework and harder essay assignments in the second half of the semester. Aren't classes supposed to get easier as the semester continues, not harder? I thought so, but clearly stupid teachers disagree with what students think. On a good note, I did well on my anes/surg lab midterm and it brought my grade up 12%! So now I'm actually passing the class! :D However, I only have about 5 weeks to bring it up to an A, or at least keep it above a C to ensure I stay passing. I haven't heard about lecture yet, so let's hope its just as good, if not better.
On a different note, the stupid girl actually showed up early for lab yesterday. She was actually prepared too! However, she didn't have a clue what she was doing when putting in the catheter. But I still give her props for being prepared. She may not have been prepared with the knowledge, but she was there and had her supplies. I guess the teacher talking with her actually made a difference. Yay for the doctor!
In addition to school, my social life is stressing me out, but I guess that's supposed to be expected when I'm going to school all summer. I never get to spend time with my friends at home since I'm at school and have homework, and they have full-time jobs. It's hard and frusterating since I never get to see them during the school year either. And when I think I get to see them, something comes up and I don't. Or else I do get to see them but they just want to hang out with their boyfriend and drink. I can't do either, so it's really not much fun on my part. But I guess its gotta get better sooner or later. I can't roam around forever with a guy, can I? At least I have my dogs; they can cheer me up in a heartbeat. It's still not fair though. Everyone around me has that special someone to hang out with and always seems to have something to go to. All I ever do is go to school or work, or I spend my life at home. And my parents are no where near exciting, seeing how my mom is always crabby and my dad spends almost 12 hours a day at work.
I just wish that stuff would stop adding up. Its getting pretty depressing, and I should be happy. Afterall, I only have about 5 1/2 weeks left until the end of the semester. Then I just have my internship and graduation. I'm going to be done with school 2-3 years before all my other friends from high school. I will be all settled in the job world (hopefully) before they even graduate. That should make a girl happy, but it doesn't. And I don't know exactly why. Anyone have any advice on how to survive the crazy hectic world of life without driving yourself mad? Feel free to pass it in my direction.
