Even though this upcoming week is Fall Break - It's not really a break. Considering nursing school homework is keeping me and my mind busy all the time, and I work 9 hours a day, and I have to sleep and eat... It is safe to say that this week is not really a break - I just don't have to go to class. Here are 10 emotions that I (and probably a lot of you) are feeling right now as midterms approach, papers are due soon, and projects are in full swing.
1. When people ask me how I am....
2. When people ask me where I am going for break....
3. When I learn there is still homework due over break...
4. All I want to do is take a nap....
5. When I realize I have to work every single day of break...
6. When I get stressed because a million things are happening at once...
7. When you learn that dairy helps lower stress levels...
8. Even though it's break, you still miss your friends...
9. When you think about all your friends, who have to do the same about of homework due, and you are all stressing out, but you want everything to be okay...
10. When you finally get back with your friends and can finally be weird and sentimental again - because you have literally had no sleep.
Sometimes we all just wish we didn't have to be adults anymore. Maybe now we understand how our parents feel.
Here's to a 'break' that all of us can hopefully find some time during to relax and breathe.
