Why 2023 has so many entries
I was moving between banking, web work, retail, and a lot of online study, so I went hard on digital marketing, AI, finance, and entrepreneurship courses. They are here because this is the full archive. I would never dump all of them onto a nursing résumé.
The stuff without a clean date
Not everything came with an exact timestamp.
These still belong in the archive; I just do not want to invent a year for them.
Curiosity outside the job title
- Japanese N4 / JLPT 4-level; Mandarin HSK 1; basic Spanish and Tagalog
- Also explored Italian and French
- Travel across Japan, Australia, Singapore, Hong Kong, New Zealand, Fiji, The Bahamas, Canada, and the United States
- Built three desktop computers from the ground up
- Reached purple belt in karate
What I’m working toward
Finish the BSN. Pass the NCLEX. Start as an RN.
I expect to complete the BSN in April 2027, plan to take the NCLEX-RN in May or June, and am targeting a structured new-graduate residency for Summer 2027.
