Between classes: Sandra Brydon

Sandra Brydon

is not keen on her alarm clock.

Education:
Bachelor of Science in Psychiatric Nursing Program, June 2009.

Currently:
In addition to being a student, I work weekends as a community support worker in a group home for adults with developmental delays.

About me:
The first thing I do every morning is hate my alarm clock.

If someone gave me a million dollars tomorrow I'd donate some, give some to friends and family, go on an amazing holiday around the world and buy things I don't need just because I can.

The one thing I hate doing is making myself go to bed early but I do it because when that alarm clock goes off bright and early the next morning, I hate that more.

A bit of column A and a bit of column B  

The best thing about college is dusting off my brain and learning - being exposed to many different trains of thought, information and styles of teaching is exciting. On the other hand, the worst thing about college is also learning, for the same reasons that learning is exciting - it can also be a little overwhelming because there is a lot to take in and be responsible for.

The craziest moment in class so far

was definitely in our Therapeutic Relations class where actors are playing clients, simulating an escalating or agitated client. At one point the yelling was so loud that a few of the construction workers working on campus came into the room to make sure everyone was okay.

You can't drag it out of me

I won't say who my favourite teacher is because I'm still in classes. I don't want to answer this question.
     

The most important thing I learned in college

is how to apply what I've learned in the classroom setting to my work environment
