I’ve been thinking about the past year, and what this year has in store for me, and Ive decided Its about time I started taking care of myself like any good nursing student knows they should.  And I need to be more realistic about what is ridiculous in my life.  So here we go.

-I made a promise to a very good friend of mine last semester that if he started taking better care of himself, then I would do the same.  Meaning cutting out the caffeine, exercise, actually eat and eat real food, etc.  While the Eating right and the cutting out the caffeine is going to be hard as I am a nursing student, I can exercise more.  I’ve decided Im going to start that Couch to 5K running plan and do my best to stick to that.

-I also need to find a job here where Im in school.  Going back and forth an hr+ each way to work at my job at home is not going to cut it anymore.  Thats a project to take care of today.

-I also need to do better about keeping my life and my living space and my car clutter free and organized.  It gets quite ridiculous…

-As far as my academic performance is concerned, Ive proven that I can infact do the BARE minimum and still pass.  Thats not good enough anymore.  Im adopting a “Pass or Top” thought train in this area.  I can make about that 75% and be squared away and safe and comfy and skate by, or I can work my ass off and be top of the class. Skating by is no longer acceptable.  In any way, shape, form, or fashion.  

I think thats about it.  Hopefully I wont kill myself in the process of making these things happen.  =\
