I failed my first exam
... and I feel like crap. Trying to not allow this grade to define my semester and my career choice. I know I want to become a Nurse and a CRNA at that.. but if I can't pass a simple A&P exam wtf am I going to do???
Since I clicked submit (because I knew I failed) I quickly thought about what I did wrong these past 4 weeks and I would have to say I was not reviewing enough. I waited until the week of my exam to study all my powerpoint slides & and crammed all the information. Why? It could be a mixture of ADHD, nerves or just plain ol self sabotaging.
If you ask me the month of January was emotionally stressful. Beginning of the semester after a 5+ year hiatus, settling into a new routine, emotional heart ache over someone who shouldn't matter, mothering, and so many other things. Shit, today was the first time in about 3 weeks since I got a proper workout in.
February is a new month and I plan to take it head on. first I'll be figuring out what study style works best for me, then I'll be making a list of the things I need to get done for the next two weeks. I'll be using youtube workouts to keep me moving and start meal prepping so we're not starving during the week.
Vday is coming up and I want to love on myself the best way possible. cheers to day 1 of not allowing a failed exam to define me.
xo,
