You gotta be wise

Listen as your day unfolds, challenge what the future holds, try and keep your head up to the sky. Lovers, they may cause you tears, go ahead release your fears, stand up and be counted, don't be ashamed to cry. You gotta be, You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold, You gotta be wiser, you gotta be hard, You gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm, You gotta stay together

Ronald Reagan

"Abraham Lincoln recognized that we could not survive as a free land when some men could decide that others were not fit to be free and should therefore be slaves. Likewise, we cannot survive as a free nation when some men decide that others are not fit to live and should be abandoned to abortion or infanticide."
~ Ronald Reagan – Abortion and the Conscience of the Nation ~

With ANY LUCK....

Four Months, exactly, from today I will be graduating.

This graduation comes after two years of "nursing school symptoms" as we like to call them:

multiple panic attacks
A couple large breakdowns
depression
anxiety
irritation/frustration/pissed-offness at patient and teachers alike
weight gain
increased hunger
unhealthy diet
increased alcohol consumption
increased blood pressure
tachycardia
decreased irritation tolerance
hating the world
the best natural high after a (good) day on the floor
spontaneous uncontrollable yelling and/or crying
additional increases in alcohol consumption aggravated by dumbass teachers/patients
G.I issues
migraines
losing the willpower to go on
additional increases in weight
stress eating
pity eating
depression eating
anxiety eating
classroom eating
clinical eating
Marshall street eating
Marshall street drinking


Ask any nursing student and they will name atleast half of these (most likely all) as symptoms of the average Nursing Student in the two years of Hell they endured (and questioned) as nursing school took over/dictated their lives/lack of lives.

but...with any luck. 4 months from now, these symptoms will be resolved. Until I start the Nurse Practitioner's program....
