Yikes. That IS a marathon day. But I know you can do it!!! Seriously: For 2 1/2 years now, I've been getting up at 3am, leave at 3:45am to get to work by 6am, and then I don't get home until 5pm, with bedtime at 7pm. And I don't drink coffee, AND I'm OLDER than you! So yes, if I can do that, you can certainly get through the next semester. It's all worth it in the end, because you're going to be a great nurse! :)
well, yeah, but as an RN, meself, of (mumble, mumble) years standing, my "workday" used to start at 1900 and run to 0730, or whenever the last ER code was completed. In my Mumble-th year, I find the allure of 12 hour days (or nights) to be somewhat faded. On the other hand, I still really, really enjoy eating regularly, and sleeping indoors!

Oh... THAT is gonna leave a mark... :-(
You'll survive, you always do, and will excel.
