As exams are quickly approaching I am starting to get a little anxious. I feel like my stress levels have not lowered at any point during the semester. I feel burnt out. Myself and many of the first year nursing students, got Tuesday’s off during the week. However, I have not taken advantage of these numerous days off. Throughout the semester I did homework at most for 2 hours on Tuesday’s and then just simply relaxed and rested. I cannot really blame myself; this is an extremely demanding program. Every Tuesday was my time to unwind and recuperate from the previous week. My weekends could not be my rest period, like a lot of my peers because of my part-time job. I have come to realize how demanding this program really is, and I think it is foreshadowing the type of career nursing is. I guess the demands from this program will truly prepare us for the future.
