Almost the New Year...

New year old mistakes...
We start fresh. Something that we can all use. A fresh start. Forgetting the old mistakes no matter how hard it could be. Enjoying family and new friends as the clock strikes twelve. As the scenary might change. The new years party at a different house for a different reason. Still, all the same faces and the same smiles. I want to take the year 2009 into my hands and make it bloom into something I always wanted. Sucess, friends, family, and happiness. Happniess not just to me, but to all that are around me. Even to those that I see on a daily basis even if it is not in flesh. They still help me get through my day. Thank you 2008 for everything you have shown me. I'll remmeber everything until 11:59 tonight. After that, my life starts over.

New years resolution:

To not kiss or have any sexual relations with girls that are not my girlfriend.

Sounds stupid
but it is gonna get me out of alot of trouble.

cuz work is boring...

so y? So y do ppl say follow your heart do what you feel like? But yet you still listen to another peoples thoughts? They are not the ones with the feelings, they are the the ones who only see what the bad and is not feeling the good things. So y? Y let your self cry yourself to sleep? Y let ur smile go away? Y let others dictate how you should be happy? Yeah what they are saying are rational. The things they are saying is very understandable. But when your happy. They should be happy too. But no matter what you do isnt wrong. Cuz blame will always be put on me.

I finished my English final with every thought that came in my head was about you. I even wrote ute name out on the paper for a second then had to scribble it out. I wish I could scribble you out of my head just long enough to foucus on my finals. I don't think its possible though. Does my good qualities out weigh my wrongs. I don't think so. So why try to keep things going? What if you are just setting yourself up for heartbreak and tears? As much as I want you to be next to me it doesnt happen. I don't know if I am ever going to see you again. I'll try to talk to you and be friends. Can things really be same before I was a mistake? If I let you down again you wanted this. I'd rather be by myself than imagaine you crying. I know that you will doubt everything that i say and do. I won't blame you nor get mad you. I take every responsiblity for every action that I do. So here I sit alone without you. My head blank. Nothing but your nAme in my head. So I'll go. Without you

samething different day

why is it so easy to make a mistake? But it seems like that the right thing to to was the wrong thing at the mommenf? It is so easy to say just font make the same mistake again. That doesnt help a person that made a mistake many times over. Is it really worth dropping someones heart on the ground? Is that minuet of sin worth the days of heartache? Is it too easy to let the one you care for. Back into your life after the tears have dried up? The taste of salt, the wet pillow, and the hard breaths you take. All because of me. The unspoken words you keep to your head and thee thoughts in my trying not to think cuz the exam in front of me seems to be blank as I spill my head into this blog. Now I am blank. Don't worry I'm coming back .

Hella slow

To continue with the whole stress idea i was going about...
Now that i actually have free time....
stress is the result from the demands in our life and not having enought supply to fufill those demands idk something like that...=/
For the first time last night I felt stress of school. It wasn't from any assighment that was due. Nor was it from any upcomming test. It came from the ridicoulus internet problem that has happening. The internet happen to be down around the whole valley. And it just happen to occur when Priorty 3 students were able to register for classes. So I was franticly trying to get my computer to connect to the internet. I couldnt connect =/. Then I tried using a phone. Great idea. It connected to the internet but it wouldn't let me log in. Phailure... So then I call Bebekeks to log on for me. She gets on, logs in, and then phailure again... She could not get to register for the classes. So then the stress finally hits me. The classes were in demand and I didnt have the supply of the internet. That ruined my night and I just went home. Tried the internet before i went to sleep. Lucky me. It works. Register for the classes that I wanted but not to complete satisfaction. The chemistry class I wanted to attend was at maximum capacity. So I just settled for the other one. To my surprise while i was writing this blog. I decided to check just in case. 1/26 available/capacity. Quickly, I dropped my other chemistry class and registerd for the new one. Now everything is where it is suppose to be. The stress is gone. Now I can watch everyaround me in the filled computer lab criticaly thinking, typing hastily, and rubbing their foreheads as they don't know what is suppose to be next. I sway in the chair from side to side only thinking of what letter will i hit next on the keyboard. I kinna feel bad though. I am using this computer just write a blog to where only a few select people will even read the whole thing. (This girl was so stressed she got her flip flop stuck on the table some how. o.0) Someone else can be writing their paper or finishing up their final. I need to get lab hours done any ways. Only two more hours left then I am done with this lab. The lab lady was standing over my shoulder reading what i was typing. It was kind of creepy. This whole blog was suppose to be about stress. Now, it just turned into a rant about nothing. I phail at having intellectual thoughts-_-... grrrrr..... Good news though=]. The airport job called me back and I start tomorrow =]. Yay im going to actually have money now. I can finally pay back my mom for all the gas I wasted. Or at least I can buy my own. If anything most of my money will be going to food and gas. Thats all I really wanted. I didn't want any new or nice things. I am statisfied with the clothes, the laptop, the car, and the way i live. The only thing I want is food to put in my stomach and the gas the car needs to get me there. Boba and Pho? or California Burritos and Carne Asada Fries? Now I am just really hungry. I want a burrito again. I barely have any money though. Christmas is comming up. I kind of feel the spirt. Maybe some of Linh's chirstmas songs she has been talking about will help me. More food is good too =]. Finals hmmm... Math is not going to be a problem. English I will do alright in. Public Speaking I need to start my cermonial speech for that. I have no clue what to write about. I want to honnor Manny Pacquiao for defeating De La Hoya. So much for the golden boy. Psychology. Is mayb the one spot I have to really foucus on right now. I only need 111 points to get an A. It shouldnt be that hard right? Just get another A on my exam I should be good. I just need to stop falling asleep in class and start taking notes. I wish I came back for that one day. I missed a day's lecture. To bad thats lame. I just realized that this is a really long rant. Sorry if you decided to read all the way up to this point. That is a waste of five minuets of ure life. If anything, you have time to lose becuase you came to read my blog anyways. I have to much time on my hands any ways. I got only two days of school. I finally got a job though, so I have other things to occupy my time. Next semester will be very interesting. English 1a and Chem 04 while trying to do Sociology online? But is ok becuase I just get to do the thing i love to do. Play basketball. That will be an intersting period of my time. I think i will take a dance for my next PE though. Fundamentals of music for my art. For some reason I just got really bored and i planed out my next two semester of Fall 09 and Spring 10. Lab is really ghey.

Just in case you wanted to know

FALL 09
1.BI 13- Human Ananatomy & Phisiology 1 (3)
2.SOC 4- SocAnal/Critical Thinking (4)
3.Phil 13- Perspective Death/Dying (3)

This is just incase there is not any intersession or summer agian.
I wish that bio didnt conflict with chem this year or i would of taken it.
Or at least i should of placed in Eng 1A when i tested. That was ghey.
Hopefully there is a summer session and stuff so I can have a lighter load.
Because looking at that schedule. It looks pretty hectic.

I liked sitting her by myself. Writing in my blog about nothing. It was pretty relaxing I must admit. I should go eat tho im getting really hungry. I dont even know how much money I gots. I need to do some recycling. Its good for the earth and its good for my pocket! I also need to drink that big case of vitamin water that I have in my closet. I need to drink water period. I don't really drink the recomened value. I am going to have liver problems like peter said when he read my palm. I want a palm reading book for xmas too. That seemed pretty cool. =]It feels good to get nothing done but still doing alot at the same time... Well its lunch time so lets go eat!

They said that De La Hoya had it 2 to 1

They said that De La Hoya was to big

They said that De Lahoy was to tall

I said Pacquiao will fxck him up XD



What Happened?

Take Care

Typically, a doctor only spends about a fraction of their time with a patient. It is solely a nurse who assesses and provides for all admitted patients. In an ordinary hospital setting, a person would find the nurse responsible for: filling out reports and charts, making rounds looking at labs before administering medication, overseeing patients’ activities and meals, communicating amongst doctor’s and patients, and providing support for patients’ families. In addition, recovery is the longest period of stay in a hospital. It is the nurse’s responsibility for ensuring the patient’s feel comfortable, safe and well taken care of. A registered nurtures their patients along the way to full recovery. An individual in this profession would experience a gratifying moment. Nurses can be considered as the backbone of a hospital, because majority of support comes from them. The career of a nurse is filled with responsibilities and benefits.
Job Description
A nurse’s career comes with many responsibilities as stated above. A nurse would regularly assess patient health problems and needs, develop and implement nursing care plans, and maintain medical records (Par 1). Nurses would not only do this for one patient, but for many different patients on the same floor on the same night (Reperajo). More responsibilities would be to give care to ill, injured, convalescent, or disabled patients (Par 1). Giving stipulations to a patient after discharge to furthermore help the process to a full recovery is another duty (Par 1). A patient might appreciate the thought that the nurse would help him or her past the hospital administration episode of their recovery. Nurses are filled with many duties every day they step into a hospital.
Working Conditions
A typical nurse would work inside a hospital. There are many different areas of a hospital that a nurse could be stationed at. Different areas would include intensive care unit, operational room, emergency room, and the medical-surgical unit floors. They could also be working in a clinic or a home health care. Most nurses work in a well-lighted and comfortable health care facility (Par 1). Most health care facilities are clean and sterile as needed to tend to the public’s need. There are many different hazards in a health care facility when on the job, since nurses are constantly in contact with patients. Patients could be carrying many different infectious diseases and environment full of toxic, harmful, or potentially hazardous compounds, solutions, and medications (Par 2). An area where a nurse has to be aware at all times is a clinic where patients go to test or get treated for infectious diseases as well as any other hospital. There are many strict regulations to protect nurses from disease and other dangers, such as those exposed by radiation, accidental needle sticks, chemicals used to sterilize instruments, and anesthetics (Par 2). All these dangerous hazards can harm the nurse if they were not careful handling the equipment and not aware of their surroundings. Back problems can also occur from moving patients from bed to bed (Par 2). Nurses would not regularly move a patient by themselves; it usually takes two people to move a patient successfully, without harming him or her. Long term emotional stress is one of the biggest hazards that a nurse can experience throughout their career, as a result of forming bonds with patients and their families (Cornejo). Nurses also face everyday critical decisions, and ethical dilemmas and concerns (Par 2). Many decisions that a nurse would make will either help the patient recovery sooner or create more suffering for the patient. Even if the ambiance of the health care facility is uplifting, there are still hazards and stress factors that a nurse deals with.
Personal Characteristics, Abilities, and Skills
Good and successful nurses share an abundant amount of different characteristics, abilities and skills. Generally, a nurse tends to be caring, sympathetic, responsible, and detail oriented (Par 23). Without those basic characteristics a patient could find a nurse to be cold-hearted or uncaring. A nurse should be an active listener; pay attention fully when a person is speaking, spend the time to understand their patient, ask questions when needed, and continue listening without interrupting the speaker (Par 3). Nurses can get very confused or disoriented when not listening to the doctors’ directions or the family. A nurse must have reading comprehension with work related text and medical language (Par 5). Nurses have to be able to read the notes and prescription of the patients that they might have. Misreading any material can cause the patient discomfort. Being able to communicate effectively to others on a daily basis through speaking is a skill required (Par 3). Everyday a nurse has to communicate with the patient on the status of their well being, because the nurse has to assess what might be needed for him or her to recover sooner. Critical thinking is a skill that can give the most stress to a nurse (Abaya). Critical thinking can be described as being able to be logical and reasonable to find strong points and weak points to different solutions, conclusions and approaches to problems (Par 5). Nurses must use critical thinking when a patient may experience respiratory or cardiac changes and the need to make life threatening decisions must happen in a seconds notice. Monitoring is when a nurse looks for improvements within themselves, other individuals or organizations (Par 3). Nurses look to grow in their careers to become more successful and for their health facility to prosper at all times. Social perceptiveness is when the nurse understands the reactions of others and why they react that way (Par 5). Social perceptiveness helps the nurse to help the patient’s family and the patient to cope with the situation in a brighter way. Service Orientation is a basic of nursing. A nurse will actively look for people who need help (Par 5). Assisting people in need is what a nurse is best at. Active Learning is a must in a nurses list of skills. As new information comes in everyday, the nurse is able to use new and current information for making decisions and solve problems for the future (Par 5). Nurses face new problems everyday, whether or not a nurse can actively learn determines the successfulness of their career. A simple skill would be coordination; being able to adjust to others (Par 5). Every patient is different and a nurse must be able to adjust to their different needs. A nurse has the ability of problem sensitivity; ability to tell when something might or will go wrong (Par 3). This could help prevent a terrible accident that is not wanted. A nurse is highly skilled when it comes to the ability of deductive and inductive reasoning (Reperajo). Deductive reasoning is the ability to apply general rules to specific problems to produce answers that make sense (Par 5). Inductive reasoning is taking unrelated items of information and combining them into a general rule or conclusion (Par 3). These two types of reasoning are used to solve a problem that nurses face to help patients with a speedy recovery. Nurses attain many different skills and abilities for their careers to be successful and to provide a quality service to the public and others.
Education
Nursing school is available at colleges and universities. It takes up to four years for a student to receive a bachelor’s of science degree in nursing for a registered nurse (Par 14). This is quite commonly referred to as a BSN. All nursing programs require taking a different array of classes such as: anatomy, physiology, microbiology, chemistry, nutrition, psychology and other behavioral sciences, and nursing (Par 16). Most of these classes are all pre-requisites before being accepted into a nursing program. Also, students of the nursing programs are required to have a clinical experience where the student gets supervised training in a health care facility (Par 15). Nurses do not only care for the ill, but also have knowledge in many different fields. For instance medicine is a major part of a nurse’s knowledge. People of this profession learn the techniques and information about how to diagnose and treat human injuries, diseases and deformities (Par 4). This is the big chunk of knowledge that a nursing student will need to learn in order to be successful. Knowledge of human behavior and performance is the field of psychology that a nurse learns (Par 2). Nurses have to understand how people would react under certain circumstances to help them cope with any situation. Nursing education is a difficult program because of the amount of information needed to be learned in a four year period.
Salary and Job Outlook
Nursing is one of the most on demand jobs on the market in medicine. It is harder to require a job due to the recession that the United States is in. The money that a nurse receives is one of the appealing aspects of the job. The median of 2008 of registered nurses salary is $57,208 (Par 2). The lowest hourly wage for a registered nurse is $20.20 (Par 2). The highest hourly wage for a registered nurse is $41.97 (Par 2). This amount of money can make a middle-class family very happy. Nursing might be one of the fasting growing jobs on the market today. A 23% increase is being projected from years 2006 to 2016 (Par 28). This is faster than most average jobs. With more people becoming nurses, patients are better taken care of and recover quicker. Employers are actually having a lack of RN’s to hire and younger RN’s to hire also (Par 36). This is good news to many young aspiring RN’s students. This is one job that the recession can not affect.

Conclusion
Nursing has become the number one in demand job in the healthcare field due to the needed RN’s and the salary. The profession is very appealing to young students due to the recession that the United States is in at the moment. The RN program is a very tough program to get through. A dense amount of information is learned in four years. After becoming a licensed registered nurse, many responsibilities come upon the nurse. With the responsibilities of people’s lives also come the hazards of infectious diseases and the hazards of the equipment and tools. Emotional distress might come along after a long period of time due to the difficult decision making and the possibility of seeing a patient lose their life. The great benefit comes though, when a suffering human being is able to walk out the hospital fully recovered and happy to be back to a healthy state of being. I chose the career of being a registered nurse so I can make a difference in a persons life and their families life, also to have the necessities to start my own family.

Types on an iPod with a breeze to my back while everyone rushes to get things done as the semstsr comes to a close. Everyone is already looking to the future for next semesters classes. I sit and ponder why do we put all these stresses upon us? Essays due exams to study for. What am I doing u may ask? Sitting down on a picnic table listening to music not caring for what hapeenes next.
