It is at long last complete. I am officially finished with the Fundamentals of Nursing class. I took my final yesterday and now have a little time to breath a sigh of relief and relish the idea that I don't have to retake that class.
There were a few people in the class that were taking it for the second time ("the curve throwers" I call them). I looked at them with a mixture of awe and dread.With awe because they managed to convince themselves to come back for a second round of torture, in an Oliver Twist "please sir, I want some more" sort of way. With dread because one of them had only missed the required test score average by a tenth of a percent and I did not want that to happen to me. I don't know if I would have had it in me to do it all over again. I really don't think I would. But that is coming from the same person who quit every Monday only to show up for Clinicals every Tuesday morning. I still haven't decided if that is a sign of being a quitter or not. Maybe I'm just not a very good quitter.
There is, of course, a lot more to go but just one more class down is a big deal to me and everyone else in the program I'm sure.
I am still on a high from getting a 100% on my last care plan. I know that unless you've seen a care plan that means very little to you. You're just going to have to trust me when I say that they are hours and hours of work with a brutal grading system.
So, thrice I say "huzzah!"

I'm cracking open the bubbly right now. A toast to the woman of the hour.
Congrats to you :) yay!
You are so many types of amazing for how well you have done on clinicals, tests, and everything else. Maybe it's a sign that you are an excellent quitter on the grandest scale. So good in fact that you quit quitting. Kudos. Seriously congrats!
In my opinion as an expert at many useless/inappropriate things you are a great quitter, you quit quitting repeatedly. That is an amazing feat. I would go so far as to say you are such a good quitter that you have become a winner by default. So congratulations. Now if only we could all have a little bubbly.
p.s. Thanks for introducing me to Craig Ferguson. I'd never heard of him before. Wow, I can't believe they have a Scottish host on CBS. And he seems really sincere and funny. Not Conan funny but funny just the same. I just watched him on YouTube talking about his alcoholism (amazing!) and will watch more in future.
