Bullet Journaling – Making it Your Own

www.instagram.com/reel/Ci7vAGvMuvk/ Check out my instagram for more journaling and journey ideas :). I’ve realized I’m bad about keeping track of my habits. I do the habits (most of the habits) I want to do, but forget to mark it in my bullet journal. Then I give myself a hard time because I have feelings like […]

COVID Vaccine Education Sheet

In my nursing program, I took part in a Vaccine clinic. Our project was to inform the community about the COVID vaccine. So, my group and I created a poster to help educate the community around our clinical site. There is a lot of great information on there so I thought I’d share the information […]

Understanding My Mental Health

Mental illnesses are a tough subject to discuss. Most people don’t acknowledge their own struggles. Mainly because we’re taught at a young age to hide our feelings, to not express too many emotions, to always be brave. But from my experience, that doesn’t always work. Yes, there are times that we need to be brave […]

Management of the Older Adult Two: Medical Surgical “Med Surg” Two

Well, 2020 has been a bit difficult for just about everyone. Probably a bit more difficult than this course is. So, that means we could all use a little help. I have attached my study guides from my Med Surg 2 class. There’s a Doc available for each exam for download. I recommended adding whatever […]

Management of the Older Adult

Med Surg 1 is a very in depth course where you pull in pathophysiology and health assessment and apply it. It can be very intimidating. At least I was EXTREMELY intimidated with this course. Still, I MADE IT! I have attached a few study guides that helped me throughout this course. Each one organized slightly […]

Maternal Newborn

Alright, I’m so excited! I received a request for a maternal newborn post so I scavenged up some of my study guides to help gear studying. I too had a difficult time with the course. Not because of a quarantine but because of a couple snow days caused me to miss class. And if anyone […]

Quarantine Boredom

I keep seeing people post things on social media about how bored they are. So, I thought I’d write a post about how I’m keeping myself from boredom during this interesting, new, and scary quarantine time. Planting I haven’t had too much of a green thumb before but I have also not been stuck at […]

Don’t Forget to Take Care of Yourself

We live in a society where we go, go, go, and then we go some more. We forget to check in on ourselves. I say this because I am also 100% guilty of this. Unfortunately, I tend to realize how little I’ve checked in when it seems too late and I’m having a break down. […]

Take a Break

Whatever that means to you. Take a break. We ALL need it once in awhile. I’ve been taking a break from writing. I’ve been having personal issues and I haven’t had the mind set to write about school or coping because honestly, I was trying to figure it out myself. I’m still trying to figure […]
