What it’s like to be a nursing student & MA

I have wanted to be a nurse for as long as I can remember. When I first started applying was before the pandemic and was getting rejected all the time. I almost gave up, but then I received that one acceptance and I knew my life was going to change forever. I was overwhelmed with excitement and gratitude to say the least. The first semester was the hardest but I had to figure out a routine and how to navigate the things I loved to do in my life and that is exactly what I did.

On the weekdays , I begin my day by going to the gym and doing a workout. This helps my energy in the morning and wakes me up before I head to class. Then, I get myself either a Matcha latte or a Vanilla latte . My class begins at 8:30am and I’m there for pretty much the whole day until 4pm . My day doesn’t end there because I have to study for another 2 to 3 hours. That routine repeats on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays.

Saturdays are the only days I go work at my part time job in an aesthetics office in Los Angeles where I work front desk and am a Coolsculpting technician. My daily life can be stressful at times but I would not change it for anything.
