Life after nursing school

Here it is, the first day of 2011 and I am almost (but not quite) bored with my empty schedule. I knew it would happen, but I didn't think it would happen this fast! So far I do not have any job prospects, but I've applied to five positions so far and am waiting to hear back about four of them. Cross fingers and toes, please!

Graduation and pinning were amazing....exhausting, but amazing. I gave a speech at the pinning ceremony and was honored with an award from one of our local hospitals (it came with a nifty etched glass thingy AND a very unexpected $500 which I am using to by myself a decent camera!) I had a dessert party at my house after graduation and now I am completely SUGARED OUT. No more sugar for me. Seriously.

NCLEX is scheduled for January 24th, and I'm supposed to start studying today. At least it will give me something to do! And, now that I have all this time on my hands, I'll try to post more often (of course, the downside to this is that I have nothing of interest to post. Sigh).

Happy 2011!!!
