Her world was a mess, so she lost herself in a wonderland of madness.

So I appear to have neglected my blog already. Oh the shame! Truth be told, I have been away to my second home in Gran Canaria. Being back with my friends out there was amazing & I honestly had the best time. But it has put a lot into perspective for me since being back & I have realised that I when I struggle with certain aspects in life, I can go into self-destruct mode. This needs to be addressed. The title of this blog explains me to a T right now. 

I need to get back into my University work & snap out of it. I am sitting on a 3000 word essay with an imminent deadline but my get up & go seems to have got up & gone?! Not to mention a looming placement which I have done no reading up on. What’s happening to me?! I need to snap out of it! 

My heart skips-skips-skips a beat

PLACEMENTS ARE OUT! Today I found out that my first placement is going to be on a Cardiology Ward and to say that I am bricking it would be an understatement! In three weeks time I am going to be caring for patients who have suffered heart attacks, irregular heartbeats & who have pacemakers. I think I’m on the verge of a cardiac arrest panicking about it all! 

I honestly could not ask for a better ward to be placed on, but it has really hit home as to how real this now is. These patients are going to be stable but seriously ill & my CPR skills are less than desirable! Besides panicking, I am actually really excited about this & am itching to put my little uniform on. Student Nurse Kayleigh. I’ve wanted this since I was a little girl 🙂 

 

 

Give a girl the right shoes & she can conquer the world….

Well, lets be honest.. With these sexual beings I’m not going to be conquering anything besides the urge to throw myself in front of a bus!! These are the most sensible & ugly shoes that I ever intend to purchase in my life. They also make my feet look ridiculously small?! 

These are in fact my new shoes that I have purchased for my placement in the local hospital in 3 weeks time. 3 bloody weeks until they let me loose on the public! Scary, huh?! I recommend that anyone within my local area tries to refrain from being poorly in that time frame or you may have me forced upon you. Poor souls!
