It's All Over!

Well it feels somewhat surreal. I feel like I am dancing on a continium between laughing and crying. Yesterday was my last day as an undergraduate! I dont think it has really set in yet. No more assignments, no more tests, lectures, tutorials, treks to the library, no more study days, last minute edits, scouring though journals for references, no more......

Strangely apart from feeling very relieved, I am quite sad. I have been doing this for 4 years now, and I don't know if I know how to be not a student nurse.

I am very much looking forward to starting work, but it seems like eons away. Like something so far in the distance that it is intagible. So for now I will concerntrate on spending time with my beautiful children, taking time for myself to relax and enjoy my time off and I might even get a chance to spend some time with my husband, who has taken up so much of the slack over the past 4 years.

Congratulations. Isn't it wonderful! It took weeks for it to really sink in for me. Wishing you all the best and, please, keep on blogging... there will be lots to write about as you transition.

Wow, how come you finished so long ago? I'm in Sydney and we only finished last Friday. Anyway I too have secured a newgrad job in Brissie, at PA. And am mature age, with my EN wife carrying most of the load the last 3 years.
Cheers, Stu

Thanks guys for your encouragement. Stu keep in touch and welcome to Bris Vagas, I am sure you will love it. PA is a great hospital (Big!) and has a solid reputation. Good luck with the transition. Don't know why we finished so early - but glad we did!
