Haven't blogged in a while & being a student nurse

I haven't blogged in quite a long time, mostly because I have been busy with my nursing degree. I absolutely love it and will probably post some more news, views and general stuff on here soon.

Training to be a nurse is challenging and rewarding, I recently had my first practical exam and I was so nervous. I know I can do the skills that they were testing me on and could answer the questions they asked but when I get nervous my mind just goes blank. I really hope I passed but I am unsure, but I'd always try again. At the moment I'm focussing my time on other assignments and I have a biology exam coming up, I also have to keep my portfolio up to date.

I am doing the learning disabilities branch, because of this I have learnt more and more about the challenges people with learning disabilities face every day. It's important not to forget their families too, hopefully once I've qualified I can start to make a real difference in some people's lives. I also want to change attitudes in some ways too. I think I'll do a blog post about it soon.

Anyway that's all for now. Thanks for reading.
