Update on things

Let me start off with work...as I have said before, I got a new job back in Brigham City at a nursing home called Pioneer Care Center last month and Im so excited to be back at a nursing home because assisted living just didnt do it for me. Assisted living is much easier and theres not a whole lot to do so the time goes by super slow and I didnt really like my co-workers. I decided to get a job at a nursing home because even though the work is physically harder, Im actually able to show that im a hard worker and have a sense of accomplishment at the end of the day. While im still trying to get into the swing of things at work, Im really starting to get the hang of things! Most of the people I work with are awesome and they help me out a lot. They've been telling me I'm a hard worker and it makes me really happy but....its SUCH hard work! I'm not even kidding, Im constantly running around the building and by the end of the night my back, legs, and feet are KILLING me. I get so thirsty at work but sometimes I have to wait 2-3 hours before I even have the time to get a drink or go to the bathroom. So, while I love my new job, Its really wearing me out physically AND emotionally. I don't want to get burned out so quick but I feel it coming on. I worked all weekend and Im still exhausted a 24 hours later. This new job is kicking my butt and its causing me so much stress!

Next is school. I have always loved school and have been very good at it but I've got about a month left before summer vacation and Im counting down the days. Ive had a bunch of big assignments due lately and I'm just so burned out and stressed out and SO ready to be done that I barely even finish them. Its so hard to even get up to go to class and I've got to admit I haven't been going near as much as I should. I don't feel on top of things and its really starting to get to me. I'm just hoping I get better than straight C's...B's would be amazing at this point.

So...basically I'm in a bit of a rut and feeling stressed out and burned out with school and work, and knowing i'm moving back home soon and not going to be seeing Brandon as much is kind of bothering me, too. I'm in desperate need of a bubble bath or one night alone just reading a good book. Today was a really bad day...I was very emotional and upset and so overwhelmed and so I sat down and wrote a list of goals I wanted to accomplish in my life and Im going to try and get back on top of things! I'll try and relax a little but my brain just doesn't shut off sometimes, especially lately....
