Tis the season for Hot tea and coffee :)

I woke up this morning to a brisk 43 degrees outside, and all I wanted was a cup of hot tea before my crazy hectic day began. So far life has been wonderfully.... busy. With nursing, ethics and inequality in America my schedule is kept jammed packed full of reading, writing and studying. I recently switched clinical sites from St. Joseph's Hospital to Robert Packer Hospital down in Sayre, PA. This meaning, I have to wake up before the sun does. My usual clinical day consists of my alarm going off at 4:30 AM, me hitting the snooze button a few times until I actually wake up at 4:50. I usually leave the college parking lot at 5:30 in time to get to the hospital to do my pre-shift patient information before a starting time of 7 AM. I love working at Robert Packer and I am seriously considering getting a job there as a Care Partner for this upcoming summer. :)

On top of all of my classes I have my lovely Perry 3rd freshman that are "keeping me young." Oh the days of being a freshman feel like yesterday, they complain about the work now but they have no idea what is in store over the next three years of their college career. Next week is registration for term two classes, which blows my mind because that means I'm almost halfway through my junior year of college. eeeeccckkk I don't want to grow up, however I am excited that I will be done with all of my pre-requisites for graduation at the end of this school year. That means my senior year will be purely nursing clinical courses and fun classes. I can't wait to have the time to take photography.

Alrighty, it's time for me to head to nursing class, but atleast it's Friday. Have a good Halloween weekend.... I'm on duty!

Junior year?

Hello!!!!!

Can you believe that it is already October? Of my Junior year? I know I can't! So far this school year has been really busy with being a Freshman RA in Perry, Equestrian club President and working at our local Buffalo Wild Wings. I do still find time for some fun, for example, this past weekend was Apple Fest in downtown Ithaca, which I went to my Freshman year. Six of us decided to go together and we enjoyed the booths and we loved the deep fried oreos! It is going to be a great year for classes and friends, and I can't wait to share it with all of you!

Love,
Ashley
