Short rest after Diploma

I'm kind of done with this 3-year pursuit towards obtaining a nursing diploma in Singapore. Now awaiting results though I will pass for sure. Preparing some documents to be submitted to the hospital's human resource department tomorrow, which means a day trip down to Singapore but a more relaxing one; no classes, no schedules.

THEN I can be away from the city state until work requires my presence there. To think about it, the next time I return to Singapore it will be to work and contribute to the healthcare services, working for real! No more student uniforms and limitations due to policies, no longer being sheltered under the school and its clinical instructors. Looking forward to taking on the role of a Registered Nurse although I have my share of fears and anxiety.

Now, it is time to take a short break from health sciences.
I will be living in Penang for a few weeks to volunteer at a human rights NGO, still wondering how I could help out but am quite excited about this!

Cheers to a good break.

Addicted to worrying

3 years ago, I was constantly worried about my college application being rejected.

Less than 3 years ago, upon having begun my dream course at my desired institution of education, I constantly worried about failing to attain a scholarship.

After being rewarded a scholarship by my preferred hospital, I worried about not saving up enough in order to quickly pay off my study loans upon graduating.

Today, I have the privilege of working in an intensive care unit, which was what I had been praying for since Year 2. However, throughout my posting I had been so worried about not meeting the standards required in order to be recruited by the unit; so preoccupied with such fears that my attention at work became affected.

Mankind, so faithless and forgetful of grace.
We need to learn to relax; or has it been just me?
