a post for a friday.

so i have been slacking lately. my apologies. i guess you could say that i am still trying to figure out what my life and my schedule looks like as an old lady with a career [still such a weird concept, i know].

being a nurse is a lot different than what i expected. i'm not going to lie. you are so much more than simply a nurse. you are a therapist, a waitress, a social worker, an advocate, a shoulder to cry on, a legalized drug pusher, etc etc etc. it is exhausting, in every single sense of the word. i am definitely learning and discovering and developing what type of nurse i am going to be. i definitely have so much to learn still. and i only have 3 short weeks before i am on my own. kind of scary.

but on a different note, guess what i did this morning? well, grace and i have been talking about going to the east coast for a spontaneous fall trip. and we bought our tickets this morning! we are going at the end of october. listen to our itinerary thus far...

oct 26th: fly to boston
oct 27th-28th: explore boston
oct 29th: take a train to new york!
oct 29th-31st: explore new york
oct 31st: fly home

i know what you are thinking, epic right? i know! i am so flippin excited. that is definitely a big perk of being out of college, having the freedom to travel and take spontaneous trips! it is definitely going to be a trip of a lifetime, and i couldn't be more excited!

now i am off to work on some self-improvement. i have decided to make september self-improvement month. especially since i am turning 24 in just a couple days.

happy friday everyone!
