I don't remember ever feeling this drained before....
spiritually, physically, emotionally, mentally....
my brain literally feels like it's a plate of jello, swishing from side to side at any sudden movement.
I dread the question: "So, how did you do?"
I took my NCLEX exam today. Four years of nursing school under my belt. You'd think it would be a piece of cake; merely a sprint to the finish line. Give it all you've got, and it'll be good enough, right? I'm not so sure, after today. Everyone in my class has passed so far. And they all 'thought they failed'. I wouldn't say that I think I failed. I am just uneasy about not having any indication of how it went, whatsoever. As crazy as it sounds, the test was the easy part. Yes, it was 3.5 hours, and it was filled with my leg bouncing up and down, and me squirming in my chair after I passed the first 170 questions. Brain throbbing as I approached 265. But I think when the pointer is spinning, while the green status bar is growing, and while the page is loading is when I'm really going to feel it. I'm terrified for the results page to load. It should NOT be an indication of my intelligence, but how can it not feel that way? I worked so hard for this. Blood, sweat, and tears (many of those, might I add. Many, MANY of those).
It's the waiting game, which just so happens to be my least favorite game in the world.
