My classes this quarter :)

So if you follow my blog you would know I went part time this quarter at school. Seeing my kids grades at the end of last trimester and the shape my house was in I decided that being a full time student was too much for this family. On top of it I quit my job at the hospital which to be honest was a sigh of relief. I was starting to dread going into work. 12 hours on my sore planters fasciitis with little rewards was not worth it in my book. So ontp my who purpose of this entry.

Its more of a complaint then anything lol. But here goes. So this quarter was my quarter for labor/delivery and pediatric nursing. I was so looking forward to this quarters because this is what kind of nursing I wanna go into when I am done. Part time means I take lecture this quarter and do my clinical rotation next quarter. This pattern continues until 6th quarter in which I then go full time and do my preceptorship in a hospital as a RN. So I am the only part time student with my 3rd quarter class. This is good in one way in that I see them struggle and I can focus just on my classes. On the other hand, the professor talks about clinical in our lecture like we all should know what the heck she is talking about. lol... Poor Kari is sitting there saying..uhmm no. :) Thank the lord I know how to assess a baby . Hmm I wonder why? :) HeHe.

Well onto my complaint...yes Im rambling lol..so i will refocus. I have to take a pharmacology class and my teacher is well how can I say this. hmmm Different. :) His whole class is on a blog which to me is so awesome but... then he tells us we have to create an account in secondlife.com a online community role playing game. Hmmm I just gave up my other game..go to class on thursday and low and behold I have to play another. grrrr. So I had to create a character called "brin davi" so that I can be an RN within this whole online game. Hospitals, saving patients etc. So real that I am walking around in green scrubs on the game. lol... Now yes i think this is cool but COME ON...this is a 1 credit hour class. Cool..well yes..extensive for a 1 credit hour class. OMG yes. hmmm

So tonight I will be touring this stupid game and seeing what it is all about. So is gaming for a class ok? well I guess.

Anyways...cheers everyone. I just had to write my thoughts down today. Can you tell this gal likes to babble. Signing out until another day. Bye see you all. :)
