This is now my Motto! lol
So as most of you know, I started the Nursing program at UH Maui College yesterday and am excited and scared and nervous and excited....well you get the idea. I waited a long time for this opportunity and the day has finally come that I get to live out my dream. WHOOOOOOHHOOOO!
Unfortunately, as for my life at RFM crossfit.......I will have to put you on hold at least for September. I thought maybe I could swing some WODs into my busy schedule but I found out last night that I am just to damn tired to read 40 pages of nursing skills and case studies after I use up all my energy getting through a WOD. But fear not, I WILL BE BACK! I see this as a challenge....and I know I'll figure out something. ;)
So anyway, to all my RFM CrossFit buddies out there, (in the words of Arnold) I'LL BE BACK! :)
Wish me luck! and I'll keep all of you updated on my school experience. :)
PPPEEEEAAAACCCCEEEE!
Congratulations on getting into nursing school!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your rotations as you learn the aspects of nursing.
At this time, do you have a preference of which type of nursing you will want to concentrate?
The downside of nursing is all the paperwork one has to do...but remember the patient in the bed is a person who needs compassion, who may be scared of being there and may come across as grumpy/mean, who had authority in life and now all is taken away from him/her and they are vulnerable.
These are things I have learned as a hosptial clown.
But unlike you, I come to make them laugh and do not come to poke, take temperature, change bed pans etc.
I however do show them my stool sample, stethscope with a plunger at the end, blow healing bubbles, listen etc.
Congraulations Rikki Rene! Nurses call the shots!
