Ch-ch-changes
I quit my PCT job. I had to. It was all becomming too much. I was spread so thin, that I was probably see through.
I had to make a hard decision. Do I continue trying to do everything, and not do well in school? Or do I admit defeat, and realize that there are only so many hours in a week, and I need to finish school strong, and not half-ass it through advanced med-surg. 10 hours of study time is a lot to give up.
For clinicals this week, we worked a health fair at a gym in a poor part of town. I like working health fairs. We are done with the hospital for this clinical. We have this weekend off, then on 12/2 we have the BIG pass/fail critical thinking/careplan test. Then the following week is the comprehensive assessment test. Then finals, then pinning, then VEGAS!!!!!!
Where the heck did a whole year go?
Tonight is a HUGE test in kidney and hematology. I have been studying my butt off, not that you can tell by looking at it. And then, the last thought I had last night before drifting off to sleep was "I can't believe how much knowledge I have gained in the past two years." Sometimes, I feel like I can't possibly fit another bit of information into my brain. And yet somehow, someway, more gets in there.

Hey, we are going to vegas too next summer! :0)
I know, this year has flown. Glad you found some balance...sounds like you are making wise decisions!
You are only 16 days from your pinning. Finishing up this semester and taking your boards are a lot more important than a job that was, at best, temporary. Good luck on all the tests!
