warpednormal's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - second. day. we learned quite a bit today..about meta-concepts in nursing as it relates to diversity, ethics, safety, environment. blah dee blah blah. it was pretty interesting to hear everyone's ideas though. all of these girls (and 6 boys) are incredibly intelligent and seemingly mature. i've already met 3 women with kids. anyway, i'm just afraid that i haven't reached the same emotional maturity as everyone else has..due to my lack of experience in life. or something. haaaaa america's next top model is taking short girls now. pretty nifty. i'm finding it hard to focus on this entry. it's ALREADY BORING AS IT IS. anyway, NEXT, this older woman who graduated from the nursing school in like the 50s came and gave us a whole lecture on the history of our school. she was fucking rad man. she came in in one of THESE uniforms from the 19th century..all black with the white bob hat thing and everything. it was amazing... i was mainly excited about how many influential nurses have graduated from here already..totally exciting. another thing...today is 9/9/9 and we're a class of 90, and are the 90th class of the school. cool beans. THEN we had a ceremony to welcome us all in for real and received these mini flash lights to symbolize the fact that we will be "lights" in the patient's life, to remind us that we're here to make other people's lives better. fuck, man. my life is too exciting and new and weird and scary right now, none of this has really hit me yet. sometimes i feel like i'm still toying withe idea of becoming a nurse, like all of this is just for fun and play. we haven't started classes yet so i don't know exactly how intense this is all gonna be. but, i think if i just keep reminding myself as to why i'm doing this all in the first place...i'll get out of this with a stronger heart. 8:47 p.m. - 2009-09-09 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
