Nursing is an art-e

so, what`s up? ive been busy blogging lately. nothing much. i`m just keeping myself busy despite of my busy schedule. i promised my dear bloggy that ill make it up. nyaha. as i was saying..

NURSING is an ART-e. art with an E. arte. maarte. whatever.

sometimes i wonder, why did i chose this course? was it my mom`s decision or mine?! did i say something?

honestly, it is/was my wise decision to be a nurse. just like my parents. im not after their steps, but it was like a `calling?!` ..sounds stupid but yea! i just wanted to help other people. you know.. doing charities, health missions and all that. besides, i wanted to be a pediatrician someday (neuro-pediatric nurse to be more specific). i know its a bit complicated aside from considering the fact that this degree involves children.. i sooo love children as much as i love chocolates. and it tears me up inside to see those children who were suffering from incurable diseases. i can`t help but cry especially when i hear their silly woes. i wanna help them. but all i can do is carry them with my arms and say `shhhh.. baby` enough na. you can see my face switching into a pathetic mode from a joker nurse. im afraid i can`t do anything for them. i am afraid i cannot.

you gotta do something if you wanna be someone.. right?!

my course is a huge step for reaching my dreams. maybe.. well, just MAYBE.. it`ll be (nursing) my pre-med course. then ill take medicine afterwards. mind you, nursing is the best pre-med course. then ill be a neuro-pediatric doctor SOMEDAY. impossible is nothing.

nursing is an art-e. because: clinical instructors are very strict even when it comes to the smallest details. our paraphernalias must be always present with us. charting is a pledge. cannot live without thermometer, sphygmomanometer, stethoscope, bandage scissors and micropore. our instructors can be mean sometimes.. aside from 40hour duty per rotation or per ward, we are oblige to submit specific requirements such as case study, nursing care plan and case presentation. did i mention the quiz and evaluations plus drug computations? the fuck with those things. nevermind those two dark circles under our eyes.. kudos to our duty schedule.

oh, i forgot that even the simple handwashing technique that we`re doing everyday in our lives is also graded in our mind-draining course.

get a life! as you might say.

the hell with you? im loving what im doing. i might look intoxicated but definitely happy with this mind fucking ground.

i`ve learned a lot from this ka-artehan. from viruses and bacteria to something more visible than our naked eye. you must be dedicated with what you`re doing. you must add passion to taste. unconditional love is what we should give and what they should get. nursing is an art.. indeed! agree with that?

am i proud? hands down, pare.
