1st Semester passed...bring on Semester 2!......

Really pleased to say that for my first 2 uni assignments I recieved a B+ and  B! Am relieved that I am on the right track! :) After reading my feedback, I now know that for future assignments I need to read more broadly...a criticism I can take on the chin! :)
Anyway...start back at uni this week...am looking forward to seeing all my uni friends for a few weeks before heading back out on placement mid February.
I'm excited to find out where my next placement will be. I think this time it'll be a medical ward as my last placement was surgical! :)
Off to meet a friend from the access course this evening...am going to pass on a few interview tips as she has an interview at our uni in a few weeks :) I remember being so nervous but actually ended up enjoying every minute! Cant believe how quickly the time has gone since my interview!
Time may be flying but I am having the time of my life! So pleased I took the plunge and started on this career path...I'm very lucky! :)

Nearing the end of my first placement...

Life as a student nurse, wife and mother of 3 has been really busy for the last few months! I only have 3 shifts left to do of my introductory placement and i must say i am going to miss being on the ward once i'm back at uni!
I have spent the last 8 weeks on a fab ward which specialises in urology. I have learned so much and being part of such a brilliant team has confirmed all the more that i have chosen the right career path!
All the staff nurses and my mentors have been very supportive of my learning and given me lots of opportunities to experience lots of different things.I hope this will give me confidence when i start my next placement in a few weeks :)
However....the next step is getting assignment results next week....i need to pass to progress...so keep everything crossed for me! :)
