Hello! Time continues to go by...little bit of school, little bit of work, little bit of being sick...but a lot of getting ready for the future. I've finally purchased my tickets to Haiti, been to the travel doctor, and bought travel insurance! Not to mention that I take the GRE for graduate school in 2 weeks, and the NCLEX is RIGHT around the corner (really scary). I just got back from a weekend in Chicago, presenting nursing research at the Midwest Nursing Research Society annual conference. My partner and I presented on high school students' perceptions of nursing and which intrinsic and extrinsic factors influence their decision to pursue a nursing major or a career in nursing. It was a wonderful experience to witness so many wonderful presentations and symposiums from some of the midwest's top researchers and nursing faculty. It just reinforces my excitement for future research and education! I have really developed a passion for psychiatric nursing as it is related to some of the co-morbid conditions that follow eating disorders. I am still debating which "angle" to tackle graduate education from...the psych standpoint or the nutritional standpoint. No matter which way I go, I still feel very confident that I will be able to accomplish many things!We finally have been added to our Haiti Team Blog! Here is the web address if you are interested in following! Stay tuned for updates from our team! :)
