I know I am way behind in updating my blog but now I have oodles of time that I have no idea what to do so I figures I could work on catching up with my life. Well I this past semester was my last semester of the nursing program. There were some times I was not quite sure I would finish but I made it. In fact I took the NCLEX today. Unfortunately they don't let us know our scores for two days… so hopefully on Saturday I have good news. Until then I will try to wait and see how things go.
Well it is hard to retell the entire semester but I can think of some highlights. One day at the hospital for clinical one of my patients sons asked me on a date. Yes he was very good looking, but the school has strict rules about giving out our personal information so I declined the offer but told him that I was studying up at Ricks so he could always look for me there. Afterwards we told our teacher (who is really nice) and she was like where is he!! I will give him your number and set you up… it was pretty funny.
I spent most evenings with my friend Justin, it was nice to have someone to hang out and just talk to. That and it was fun to hear about how he was going to propose to his girlfriend. She is one lucky girl. Pretty soon July was here and it was time to graduate. I passed the exit exam which I was very happy to have that stress relieved. Mom and dad, Chris and Liz, LaCie, josh, Sarah, and Yana all flew out to come to my pinning and graduation and then we enjoyed a week of fun and laughter. Putting all the price family together in a room can get really loud and you will have strong stomach muscles from laughing so much. I love the fact that we all get along so well. I was very happy with the fact that I was able to go water skiing and wake boarding. One of my favorite things that I don't always get the chance to do.
Now I am in California visiting my parents for the 7 week break. I love it!! I get spoiled and get good ole home cooked food. I reckon I will have some major adjusting to do when I head back to school. I love getting to spend time with mom and dad. I forget how nice it is to live with them and always be able to talk to them without having a phone to my ear.
It is defiantly different here than in Idaho. But it has it pluses and I have been able to meet new people. (hint hint to those who know) and it is refreshing to get back on my feet and start distressing. Two years of nonstop stressing started to make me lose my funess. This is not a good thing. I am beginning to find it. One of my favorite things to do is go to dads work and write him notes on his white board that the guys tease him about…
Yesterday mom and I went to the dentist and I thought they were going to pull all of my teeth and hang them on the wall. They were amazed that someone could have teeth like mine and have them be real. The dentist kept asking me if they were real. Then we wanted to know who did the orthodontics on them... I think he had every worker in there come and check out my teeth. It was really weird. But at least I now know to cherish my teeth because they are amazing J after we went to the dentist mom and I took an adventure to San Diego to spend the night there so I could take my test this morning.
The drive was amazing!! The mountains here are made of rocks. I know you think that every mountain is made of rocks. But these are actually rocks piled on top of each other into mountains. I have some pictures but until I can figure out how to put them on here you will just have to Google it I guess. They were beautiful, in their own way. It amazes me how different two states can be but how each one has its own magical beauties. Anyways mom and I made it safely and I took my test and when I was finished we drove to the temple. And for those who may have never seen pictures of the San Diego temple look it up. Although pictures don't do it justice at all. It was defiantly built to house a king. It looks like a castle. My mom tells me who beautiful it looks. When I am able to go through the temple this one is on my list to see. I actually told mom that I wanted to get married there. I would have my own fairytale weeding complete with a castle.
We drove home and on the way I got to see the ocean and sea world. Hopefully I will have time to go there while I am here if not that gives me an excuse to come back and visit them.
It is nice to be home and relax. But school time is fast approaching and I am not quite sure I am ready to go back.
