a new, new chapter, forreal...

So....

I was blessed this past spring semester, with an opportunity to enroll into the Occupational Therapy program at my school....good thing right?

WRONG!!!!


Lets back track a sec....

See i thought i wanted to be a nurse practically all my young adult life...and once i enrolled in college and figured out how difficult it was to actually to get into a program like this..(any health science program, really) i kind of pushed the thought of nursing to the back burner....

SO...

right before spring semester starts....i get a letter in the mail saying...CONGRATULATIONS
you've been accepted into the Occupational Therapy program...blah blah blah...

and i just went hysterical..i mean what are the odds....so i go to class all this semester and in early April i get another letter......

(I had also applied to another school for their nursing program.. thinking i had no chance to get in, but hey its worth the shot right?)

fast forward....

Now im stuck at the end of the semester, im already in a program and i've just been accepted into the nursing program.at the school that i just knew i wasnt going to be accepted into..the career of my dreams....I thought since i had already invested so much money into the OT thing that i should stick with it....

but, then that " I gotta have it all " attitude kicked in, and i realized id be a dummy to pass this up....so....im so very, very pleased to announce that:

your girl. your cousin. your niece. your daugther...is officially a nursing major...ha!


Its gonna be soooo much work...not to mention soooo much money....( can i borrow $1,000.00??)

but this is what i've wanted to do since i was realllly realllly little...and i cant believe, thinking back now, that i was just gonna let it pass me by.....

more posts about class/clinicals/etc. to come.....
