I am finding the double degree quite hard going. Academically it is fine but the nursing is so far from anything I am interested in. I locked myself in the loos during my last placement and had a little cry before I could go back out and continue. Maybe it was just the nurse I was buddied with but I woke up every morning having to persuade myself that it would be unethical to throw a sickie, and I would just have to make up the hours anyway. I contacted another uni about switching to direct entry but I can't take all my credits from this year with me so I would still have 3 years to go and with the extra travel to Melbourne I just can't justify it.

However the mid more than makes up for it, and I am just hanging out for my grad year when I can drop all nursing and get on with my career. Only 3 more years...
