Two more mid-terms await me this week, one on Thursday and one on Friday.
I've worked my way through various population health models, and will need to do more physiology still tonight.
Maybe next week I will attempt to re-surface socially for the first time since school and this huge lifestyle transition started. I owe so many people phone calls and emails! But I am optimistic about this re-joining of civil society, given that I'm almost back to normal with the latest round of family viruses, and I am truly getting into a studying groove. And most importantly, I'm adjusting to being a student again and wrapping my head around the fact that this stage of life is my current reality (leaving a desk job to be a student again was a major shock to my system)! I'm guessing I should be fully mentally adjusted to being a student by the time I return to my desk job in May 2012...
I really must get back to the books, but one last item I want to share tonight is a quiz I took recently, from the text book on "Life's Transitions: The Aging Process", from my Determinants of Health course.
It is a simple quiz, one that estimates your life expectancy (based on various health behaviours and heredity factors).
The good news is that I'm going to live to be 101 years old!!! I guess I'll get be a nurse for many more years than I thought, given that I plan to never fully retire from this job. :-)
The quiz can be found at: www.livingto100.com (oh yeah, and eat right, don't smoke and get your body moving, even if it is just a daily walk around the block!!!) Best of luck!!!
OK, OK...am really going back to studying now...
