Hi becca

I'm new to this forum. I'm not quite sure what a short story has to do with nursing but ...oh well... :S

Have you been given an outline...or some sort of framework?

Regards

How far are you in your course? Are you finding the whole thing stressful or just this particular task?

Give me some more detail and I'll see if I can help.

Planning is key. If you have a timeframe in which to do this then plan accordingly. Sit quietly and try not to let your mind wander or let any distractions in the way - then try and think about what to do.

Hi becca

Yes, please let me know how you get on. Hope your day goes well and the assignment isn't difficult. Maybe you can find a "buddy" to sit with and share ideas etc? As it's only your first day, perhaps you are feeling anxious about meeting everyone?

I understand how you feel (as I've been there loads of times) but if you can try and stay focused and draft out what you need to do - (once you know what is expected of you), hopefully you can stay organised.

Sorry if not much help, I'm new to this forum and haven't got used to the flavour and people yet - also I don't like the fact the whole forum post disappears when I post a reply as I forget what I'm replying too.

Good luck for today x ;)
