Ack!

I've pretty much been feeling exactly what you see to the left.  Completely wacked, burnt out, eyes popping out of my head, hair all a mess and just about on the verge of a breakdown.  

My Spring Break wasn't as restful or rejuvenating as I had hoped.  Still trying to catch up on that aspect.  Returning to class that first day proved to be pointless and a waste of my time.  I didn't learn a damn thing nor did I absorb any new material.  My last of my clinical days have suddenly changed, as it did for our whole class due to the fact that our predictor scores for our state boards were less than stellar as a whole.  There has been a big change from last year's numbers compared to ours.  And those numbers have put the fear in all of us.  Students as well as faculty.  Clearly, they have not done their job very well in prepping us for taking the impending tests upon graduation.  So now it's extra work for all of us not to mention extra anxiety.  WTF?????  This is not good for my overall health.  I have relented to the fact that I just can't stress about it anymore and just move on to the next task.  I've got time.  Or so I hope.  

Today has been better.  Although it's been cold and rainy with a sleet like mix thrown in for fun, it hasn't been too terribly bad today.  I think just putting a lot of this out of my mind and closing the books will do me more good than to try and read ahead for the next content or work on a project that's due next week.  I'm just done.  And I have let go of the guilt of not doing anything.  It doesn't do me any good.  There is so much to do that I just don't know where to start.  So I think I will start again tomorrow.  After all, tomorrow is another day.  Right?  elizinashe
