Finishing My Second Year of Nursing School

The semester is over and my final exams are written and done. I can officially say that I survived my second year of nursing school. This whole year went by so quickly, I'm a little disoriented by it. But it was stressful, amazing and endlessly fascinating all at once. It kind of blows my mind to think about how much I've learned in the past 2 years and how much I have left to learn. The further I get into my studies, the more I love my career choice and the more I know I made the right choice.

I've reached the part of my life where 50% of me is excited for the future and 50% of me wants everything to slow down. One half of me just can't wait to graduate and start working as a nurse, moving out and getting my own place and basically just beginning my life as an independent, working woman. But the other half of me is the scared half. The one that's bewildered at how it's already been 2 years and that in just over a year from now, I'll be writing my exam to become a registered nurse. How will I ever be ready for that in just over a year???

Well for now, I can put all that on hold. Because it's summer (even though the weather here would say otherwise). I have 3 months off to myself, to enjoy and relax. I'm really excited for it. As usual, I have a lot of plans that will most likely not become a reality but I will still be content if my summer consists of reading, netflix and hanging out with friends.

I will also be back to blogging on a regular basis! So let me know if there's anything you want to see on this blog, I am very open to suggestions! :)

Hope you're all having a lovely week so far,
xo

The BEST and EASIEST Waffle Recipe! (Blogmas Day 9)

When it starts to get chilly out, I find myself making waffles pretty often. In fact, our Sunday breakfast usually consists of waffles of some kind. And in my house, I'm the designated waffle chef. I have the best recipe for waffles that are truly delicious AND any lazy chefs dream; its all done in one bowl, with ingredients everyone has in their kitchen. Literally foolproof and delicious. Perfect for Christmas morning! Makes anywhere from 8-12 waffles, depending on the size of your waffle iron. Ingredients:  2 cups of All-Purpose flour 1 tablespoon of baking powder 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar 1/4 teaspoon of salt 2 eggs (beaten) 1 teaspoon of vanilla (but you can add another 1/2 teaspoon if you want a stronger vanilla taste!) 1-3/4 cups of milk 1/4 cup vegetable oil Directions:  1) In a big bowl, combine all the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, sugar and salt) 2) Create a well in the center of your dry ingredients and add your wet ingredients 3...

Review: Lush Cynthia Sylvia Stout Shampoo

Hello there! So I've been on the hunt for a shampoo to tame my wild hair for ages, so I picked up this during my recent Lush visit  in hopes that it would help with my thick, coarse, dry hair. According to Lush , this has: Stout to calm:  For all hair types but especially beneficial for fluffy, hard-to-manage hair. Friend to all scalps:  Yeast improves the health of the hair and scalp. For a polished finish:  Organic lemon juice is a gentle cleanser that adds masses of shine and gloss. After using this for a little while now, I can say that I'm pretty much still on the fence about it.  Pros:  Though my hair is still a little frizzy, its definitely a bit better than it used to be. My hair is also softer to the touch and shinier.  Cons: I've noticed my hair gets greasier a lot quicker since using this shampoo. I also feel as though it may be drying out my scalp, but it'll take a little more time to know for sure if its because of th...
