I hope everyone had a great weekend! Mine consisted of working one thirteen hour and one fourteen hour shift! I had taken time off while I was in psych (I’m float pool/PRN at my job) so it was nice to see my work friends and get back into the groove of the nurse life! I now have five full days off that require no classes, work, studying, homework, clinical, or clinical paperwork!Read More

I have officially finished my last clinical of my psych/mental health nursing class! I really enjoyed this rotation and I have to say it was different from other clinical experiences. Before you get to psych, you will have rotations on medical/surgical type floors. Read More

I hope everyone enjoyed a fun and relaxing weekend. I spent my weekend studying, nothing new there! I did get my first S’mores Frappucino, so that was a positive! If you haven’t tried one, you need to run to your nearest Starbucks and order one! It is seriously like summer in a cup. That combined with the gorgeous weather this weekend has me ready for summer nights on the balcony and days by the pool!Read More

Hello World!

Hey there! I’m Megan. Welcome to my blog! I’m a Licensed Practical Nurse and a full time RN student. To say the least, the last four years have been a crazy adventure! Three years ago, I graduated from my practical nursing program. I began working at a Skilled Nursing Facility on the Transitional Care Unit as a full time night shift nurse. Two years ago, I returned to college full time to finish my RN prerequisites and earned my Associate of Science Degree.  Currently, I am a full time RN student and float pool LPN.
