Very late to the thread, but I don't mind...
Lots of positive changes happened lately. I was able to score an A in my last "preparation exam" - to explain, a teacher from nursing school visits us in our workplace and we're graded on our performance in just the 'nursing' part of our job, not the documentation. We give a good overview of our patients/residents' diagnoses and medication, but we don't write an extensive daily care plan like we do in the real final exams. My score was barely an A (1), but I'm still very confident in my skills now.
Second I was finally able to order a used car for me, even though my mother had to get involved to validate my credit rating. The bank didn't care that as a future nurse I could find work easily. Well, now I wait for the delivery... Thankfully it has all the features I was looking for and my favourite design of the line (all black with a red stripe around the roof).
Currently most of my time apart from working and household chores is spent on preparing for the written exams, as they'll be in the first week of June. Not much time for hobbies... But I hope to get a nice and relaxing shave done today.
I'm glad to hear things are going well!
Thanks walden! I hope that everything goes smoothly and that I can be a bit more active here.
