Haiku Friday: Cold & Crazy

Welcome to winter!
Ten below zero tonight
without the windchill

No school for Cordy
The air is too cold. But me?
Of course I have school.

So I will put on
my paper thin scrubs to sit
with crazy people.

Oh, how I wish my clinical would be canceled in the morning. But even bitter cold can’t prevent me from spending 10 hours in a psychiatric ward. My clinical for nursing school this quarter is psych/rehab, so the first half of the quarter I’m working in an institution with patients who will probably never leave due to their serious mental illnesses.

I do find it interesting to learn more about the different types of mental illness, but 10 hours is a long time to spend there. By the end of the day, I have to do a mental status check on myself to make sure I’m not going crazy as well.

To play along for Haiku Friday, follow these steps:

1. Write your own haiku on your blog. You can do one or many, all following a theme or just random. What’s a haiku, you ask? Click here.

2. Sign the Mister Linky below with your name and the link to your haiku post (the specific post URL, not your main blog URL). DON’T sign unless you have a haiku this week. If you need help with this, please let me know.

3. Pick up a Haiku Friday button to display on the post or in your sidebar by clicking the button at the top.

REMEMBER: Do not post your link unless you have a haiku this week! I will delete any links without haiku!
