Hi Charlotte, I'd like to know how student life at AUT is for the nursing program.

[@charlottemiriam]

Hi there! I would say that AUT is better than some universities if you're wanting more of a work-life balance, as long as you manage your time well you should have free time to socialise and relax! Most people I met at AUT were also really lovely, and AUT do put on events for students throughout the year. Hope this helps!

Do nurses have to remember everything? If I was smart I would wanna be a NICU nurse but I have a back issues and can’t really everything. It’s really awesome you got your nursing job. Well done! Right now I’m studying counseling ❤

[@charlottemiriam]

Hi there! Thank you for watching my video :) I think it would be impossible to remember everything haha, I was stressed before starting work that this would be the case but my colleagues are so prepared and happy to answer my questions and help me with things, and over time you'll learn more and pick up on more things :) Counselling is such an important career, good on you lovely!

[@juliehughes6534]

Hell yeah you made some cool new friends at Waikato!!! 🤪🤪🤪

[@charlottemiriam]

The absolute coolest!! Can't wait to see you all again at next study group :)

[@liakaufusi4010]

for bachelors did you ever struggle or fear of failing an assignment that you doubt yourself to the point where you feel unmotivated?

[@charlottemiriam]

Hi lovely, that's great question and I'm so sorry if you're feeling this way at the moment, I definitely understand the feeling well. In my second year I doubted myself in general, and it definitely left me feeling unmotivated to the point where I really struggled to finish assignments or show up at lectures. The main source of my stress was feeling behind in study and also not knowing what type of nursing I wanted to go into, so the way I pushed past it all and slowly regain my motivation and confidence was to make a massive to-do list of everything I needed to get done so I could add activities into my calendar, helping me feel on track and prepared. I also tried to schedule some self-care or no work days so I had time to relax and not think about uni, which helped in the long run because I was rested. I reaffirmed what my goal/why was, why was I doing this degree, what did I want out of it etc and that helped because if I was unmotivated to work, I could say to myself, by doing this assessment I am one step closer to achieving my goal. A basic thing that I have talked about heaps was looking after my body, so changing what I was eating because on placements I only ate junk food, and staying hydrated, prioritising sleep, and doing yoga daily for my exercise. I spoke to my family and friends about how I was feeling so it was off my chest and they were able to give me some really good advice which also left me feeling less alone. And the last thing that really helped (but admittedly is very outside our control) was I had a string of really amazing placements in my third year which left me feeling so excited again. I really hope this helps you lovely, I also made two videos in my second year about self-doubt, so if you want, feel free to check them out, they might help xx
