Spring Break? Are you out there?

Oh my goodness! I'm tired. This is intense. I'm realizing that it's not actually the intensity of school that's killing me, but the need for endurance. I've always been a sprinter, but I thought that was only for running. Apparently not. Nursing students are just working at a high level of activity...all the time! It kind of goes like this: 

ME: ok. I turned in my research paper, so now a little break. 

school's response: NO, YOU FOOL! There's a midterm on Monday!

ME: oh, so then Monday afternoon?

response: Have you forgotten you have pt teaching at post-conference on Tuesday!? and how                       about learning your pt's meds for this week? You think you'll get that done by                                 watching The Office?

ME: oh, right. I forgot those things. Ok, then, for sure after Wednesday I'll be golden.

response: JUST KIDDING! What about that other midterm next week? Then it's practically                         finals, so you might as well just forget about it, sucker! You're DESTINED for fatigue!

ME: whimper...
