COVID-19

Hello World,

Let's talk about COVID-19 and being an essential worker. Itttttttttt sucks, now I am not a nurse or a doctor, I am a Tech. I work with the patients one on one which makes this scary. I think the hardest part of this is feeling like you're putting your family and friends at risk. In this case, you can't only think of yourself. I HATE getting tested it sucks, it's uncomfortable but it is also necessary.

COVID-19 has also messed with school. I had the last part of my semester online and my classes for the summer are online. I am an in-person, visual, hands-on learner. I need to be able to raise my hand and get questions in real-time. I need that, it is crucial in my learning experience. I hate learning online on another note I have never done better in school than I have now. I think that the fact that it doesn't feel rushed and I can go at my own pace is extremely helpful. Which feels very contradicting.

COVID-10 has also raised my anxiety when it comes to nursing school. I am nervous, like NERVOUS!! Nursing school is the definition of my learning style, and to have that potential taken away is nerve-racking. I already deal with the idea that I am not good enough for nursing school. And I am afraid of failing and now there's a chance that I won't be able to go to school and work through this? It seems impossible to me. I know I have my doubts about myself but having doubts about school is an entirely different thing. Now that I wrote it out I feel better! Soooooo thank you for reading/listening!

Another day as an adult (who is freaking out a little bit).................damn,
