Hey Ladies!!! :wavey: :wavey:

I hope everyone who is in school survived their finals or good luck on your upcoming finals for those who aren't done yet!!!! I am officially done with 2/5 of my BSN nursing program!!! I can now also rejoin the world of pricescope (at least for the next 6 weeks)!

So an update on me:
I thought that SO might propose on Christmas, which for me personally is not what I want, but now I don't think he will. He did say it would be after the first of the year, but I wouldn't have to wait all the way until my birthday (April). The only thing now is I have NO idea what he is going to get me for Christmas. I am not good with surprises and normally I know what I am going to get (I know I am no fun to buy for). I have already done most of my shopping, now I just need to wrap them.

I hope everyone is having a good Christmas season so far!!! It doesn't quite feel like Christmas yet here in NOLA because I am still wearing shorts, but I love the holidays and hope it gets cold soon!

Ughhhhh I have 11 days left till my semester is over...then I will be done 1/4 of my ASN! I will be transferring after for BSN (I had too many transfer credits and our state colleges give preference to incoming freshmen :sick: ) so this was the fastest way to get done, since its performance based and I have an extremely good GPA, I only had to apply once! :mrgreen:



Sooooo lucky that your semester is over tho! Im going through my ati book as we speak! i have 3 tests till freedom...test V, ATI test and a final! andddd 2 more days of clinical next week. We can complain about care plans together hehe :praise:

Congrats!! Yay!

I'll be done next week. Well, I could be done today if I wanted (decided to take my last uni class online instead), but I'm feeling unmotivated.

BUT THEN I WILL HAVE MY DEGREE

OMG I hate ATI!!!!!!! We drop a whole letter grade in clinical if we do not get a level 2 at least and I think later in out program it is a level 3!!! Good Luck on your finals coming up! You will rock them!

Congrats on almost being done! :appl: :appl: :appl: I have decided that the last final is always the hardest and the one that you have the least motivation to study for!! I cannot wait until this time next year to be able to say I am done with this degree!!!!

OH WOW!!! That is SCARY! We have 6 nursing schools in my state and my school has been the top one for years. We have over 93% pass rate for NCLEX. That being said, my ATI is NOT stressful....I don't want to make you jealous or anything, but if we get proficiency level 2 OR 3 we get 3 points added to our FINAL average! If your average is under a 75, you get no points no matter how well you do. If you get a proficiency of 1 then no harm, no foul...nothing happens to your grade! Soooo I am very thankful for that!

Yay ladies! I was done on Tuesday. I seriously cannot WAIT to kick back! The last few days have been spent cleaning up the mess I made during the quarter :oops: I hadn't put laundry away in over a month! I just washed what I needed, and picked clothes out of a darn hamper. :oops: :oops: My room is sparkling clean now, and SO helped me hang up more art and decorations that I have postponed putting up for over a year. My room is more "home" now :))


How many weeks do you all have off? I have until Jan 7th.. so that's 4 whole whopping weeks of freedom! I'm so so happy. I have needed this. Damned summer break was only half a week for me 8) .

Any plans for your time off? I have officially decided I will not be picking up extra shifts at work just because I am not in school. In fact, I'm sticking on a 8 hour/week schedule for now. I want to spend time with family and friends. It's been too darn long since I have had the time to do that.

I'm off from dec 18-jan 22 - but I'm not really "off" because I have to start my syllabi for next semester and I still work 40 hours a week...so I feel like I'm "off" because I'm not soing my usual 16 hour as! ;( We also have a dosage exam every semester that we have to pass with a 90 or better or we can fail the course! ( we have 3 chances tho throughout the semester). I passed on the first try this semester!

I plan on going into Boston and having a romantic date night with my lovey. Hit up our fave Italian restaurant in the north end, dessert, shopping during the day! We are going to try to do a day trip to NYC too. Summer break will be more fun for me. I have concerts in July and aug and we are heading to universal in may! :mrgreen:

OMG I love Universal! The Harry Potter section is amazing!! I kind of love HP (I'm a total nerd :read: :read: ) I cannot wait until next December, I am going Disney for a graduation present from SO. I am in an accelerated BSN program for people who already have a bachelors so this is the only break I have in my whole program... I am going to soak it up because next year will be insane!

My break is from now until mid Jan, I can't think of the exact date. I won't be doing much, but I am going to Kansas City for a week to visit some friends from when I used to live there. I will just be trying to catch up with friends and family that I have not had time for since May.

Okay I am officially jealous!!! I think ATI is the devil. Our school is regarded as one of the best programs in the state but I just don't think their rules for the ATI is fair. Oh well, what are you going to do about it :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

I'm supposed to be working on my paper right now. Pricescope is such a good distraction though! :Up_to_something:

Mine start tomorrow at 8am, with one following at 1pm and then I'm done after my final final at 10:30am on Tuesaday. I've got some other assignments and whatnot that are due by midnight on Wednesday but all I can think is that in appx 36 hours I will be done for a month. :appl: I have had senioritis so bad lately. 8-) :|
