What A Dumb Post

Have you ever procrastinated on something that's really important for your future? Guilty as charged! Its 3 AM and I have an essay to write- so naturally I have started a load of laundry and scoured all of Facebook, which by the way, I can't stand anymore but its burned in my brain as a habit to check it and naturally get distracted with article after article. I have also spent a solid few hours catching up on all my favorite blogs, checked my email, watched several episodes of Grey's Anatomy, and rewrote the first line of this post probably 10 times (writers anxiety).

You know what's so great about watching Grey's Anatomy? Watching the surgeons provide such high quality bed side care to their patients...they draw blood, give medications, doing chest compressions when their patient's heart stops. They even hold their hands while they cry and tell their sad life story (and most the time I'm sitting on the couch crying too)...if that's what they do all day what do I do? WHERE ARE ALL THE NURSES?! I think I can speak for {most} nurses when I say it's a sore subject but I digress.

Its 5AM and I still haven't started my essay. I haven't started because I'm nervous that I'm not going to write it well enough. Its an essay for graduate school and getting accepted is something I've wanted from the bottom of my being for quite awhile now, and who knows if its the only thing standing between me and the program. So here's my off-cuff essay:

To Whom It May Concern,

      I have been a nurse for well over 3 years and in the mean time have worked in XY&Z specialties gaining not only the experience but knowledge, leadership skills, and confidence in myself and my abilities as a healthcare provider. I work great with people and will be a great nurse practitioner so please please PLEASE accept me in to your school!!!

Sincerely, 

    Sarah

Short, sweet, and to the point. No?

           

                Pleeeeeease let me in! pa pa pleease?!

Ugh, I think I have a looooonnnnggg way to go on this essay. Beer me.
