Are you bored with the snow yet? I know I am! Although it is still snowing, every so often, with all

these unexpected warm days, there seems to be a light at the end of the tunnel during these wonderful months of spring. With more and more warmth and sun, it shows that the season is slowly approaching. Spring brings buds on trees and flowers from seeds, which also means that the semester will end soon and summer break is coming! As another school year passes, this is a great time to look back and reflect on ourselves and how much we’ve grown within the school year.

As nursing students, one might think we do enough reflections, right? I have come to realize that reflection is a very helpful tool in life. Whether we are reflecting on our growth in knowledge from all those textbooks we read, or through the experience we encounter in our daily lives, we always end up with one conclusion: it shows us that we definitely grew and learned in different ways, and we have learned lessons that we can carry into the next phase of life.
