So I have been wearing scrubs for over two months now, but it still feels so surreal to be no longer putting on that huge and white nursing student's uniform because in many ways, I feel like a student every day.
Work has been quite good despite the never ending list of new things that I need to learn in the workplace. Colleagues are rather friendly and I appreciate them for going easy on me. There are good shifts, there are not so good ones; thus far I am surviving and cannot wait to get on track to function more independently as a critical care nurse.
Putting on a different uniform makes me uncomfortably aware of the new and heavier responsibilities I need to bear. Stress is a good thing in this sense, that you do not dare to take lightly the patients under your care.
Cheers to a meaningful career ahead!
