wellity wellity well...

For fucks sakes, its 6 am and I am still awake. Sad thing is, this is no longer me being adolescent and thinking "hey, Im cool, lets stay up till the wee hours chatting on the internet" anymore. This is grown-up me, thinking " Christ almighty I want to go to bed... but must stay up due to body scheduling". Yes, Im still stuck in night mode. Wednesday, Thursday on nights and then back to the world of the living. My sanity cant wait!
So I love nursing, but getting to be a nurse is really hurting my bottom line. I have to borrow 700 bucks this week, just to pay to write my exam and to get a temporary registration. And on top of that I just paid to get a criminal records check. It seems all Im doing these days is reaching into my already tapped out resources trying to pull out that one last dime. And wow, can I use any more cliche phrases?
Another thing. I need to stop going on dating sites. Its become such a time waster in the past little while. It doesnt help that Im awake when everyone else is sleeping. Ill page through profile after profile like its a bloody mail-order magazine or something. Sad thing is, even if I saw my soulmate ( if I believed in such things) on there, i wouldnt have the time nor the capacities to do anything about it! The last thing I need right now is dating! However, the thought of giving up on guys is not working either. What can I say... Im a sexual being who thinks about the opposite sex way too often. But, dont we all? And those who think they dont are pretty deluded. Or depressed.
OK, enough of the crazy.

bedtime

Have I mentioned that going to bed at 10pm sucks? I never, ever thought I would spent a large majority of my nights going to bed early. Unfortunately, when you work at 7am and have to be up at 5 am in order to get to work, one must go to bed early.
Going to bed early goes against my biological clock. Or at least I did. When I first started doing this, I had to take prescription sleeping pills in order to fall asleep. I still have them but have realised that Im slower ( mentally) on the days when I took a sleeping pill the night before. Its almost better that Im completely exhausted than to take a sleeping pill. Unless its Gravol... Gravol is awesome.
Im excited to be meeting with some of the girls tomorrow evening for a drink/vent session. Its been a while since I have actually had people to talk to about my new nursing experiences. Dont get me wrong, I talk to the nurses at work, but they all have more experience and thus different viewpoints on things, so I dont feel that they can relate the same way. I just hope I dont spend too much time dominating the conversation tomorrow night. Its like I get verbal diarrhea whenever Im around other student nurses.

I think I am going to try to make an entry every day. I have a feeling they will be mundane like this one, until I actually get into the swing of making actual interesting thought provoking blog entries again. But I dont care, because no one is reading this anyways!
