And I thought I had February to concentrate on my dissertation......

Wowsers! The weeks seems to be passing by in the blink of an eye and my 'to do' list keeps growing and growing!
So following the celebration of good results, I honestly thought I had some time to concentrate  on my dissertation before my final 2 modules need attention! How wrong was I??

Extra job 1) One of the modules involves a group of students teaching a 3 hour seminar each week. Our group is first up! So we have lots of work to do on accountability and delegation. We have decided to compose some sort of game based on scenario's where we can look at both aspects of our topic. For the 2nd half of our session we are going to hold a debate. All in all, this is eating into my timetable much more than I anticipated that it would.

Extra job 2) So we were visited by the recruitment team from our local trust. Fab session...the trust has so much to offer a newly qualified nurse, with a great preceptorship programme! Great! So we all need to apply....closing date in 2 weeks! Arrghhhh! Interviews planned for the end of the month! Argghhhh! So, Personal statement to write and interview preperation to consider.

I've written my personal statement and I'm really happy with how it reads. Just really hope the interviewer can hear my passion and eagerness when they read it! Fingers crossed I get short listed and get the chance to show how enthusiastic I am in an interview!

I need to re-plan my time so I don't feel like I'm drowning in jobs! 6 weeks left until my dissertation is due in so I really need to make this a priority.

I shall keep reading and researching current nursing issues and I shall have to have a good think about my own strengths and weaknesses so I am prepared for interview, alongside dissertation writing. Busy busy!

Just remembered, job 3) I need to buy a suit and practice my handshake!!

But the end is in sight.....6 months to go!! :) :)
