Pediatric Rotation

December 17, 2017

Pediatrics. My first specialty rotation after my second attempt at med/surg.  Just my luck, more med/surg but for little humans. At first I didn't know how to take it. Should I be happy that I have pediatrics right after med/surg being that the concepts are pretty much the same? or Did I want a break from...

1st Year of Nursing School *part 2

December 7, 2017

The second semester, which was Med/Surg nursing, well that was a different story. I was screwed from the very first test. Definitively no common sense there. Remember when I said that "I was indeed smart enough for nursing school"? well by the end of the first month I was back at questioning my abilities to succeed in...

Grow Old With Me...

September 20, 2017

The best is yet to be. It's been 6 years now that we've been on this journey we call our married life. And with each passing year I'm reminded that this journey will probably never reach a destination because in some way or another we continue to grow and evolve into different yet better versions of ourselves....

Half Way

September 17, 2017

  Half way through my 30th year of life I also find myself being half way through nursing school. Those who know about my school journey know that it has been a very long one. Ten years to be exact. WOW!  Ten years! Crazy I know. I can't even believe it. Actually I have mixed feeling about that. Growing...

Note to self

•Prayers are always answered. Some prayers are answered faster than others. Some are answered through scripture, a person, an object, or a situation. But prayers are always answered so don't give up on praying.  •Family is the only person who will truly ever have your back. By family I mean siblings (and...

Reflection on my 20s *Part 2

March 15, 2017

I’m not even going to lie. I like the idea of turning 30 tomorrow and starting the new volume of this book I call my life on earth. Its bittersweet t say goodbye to an era where in most of it all I did was try to find who I was and my purpose on earth. And although I have yet to figure it all out I have learned so much about...
