Graduation

The day of graduation was crazy. First and foremost we had to take the Pharm final. Can you imagine studying for a pharm test? Yea me either. All you can do is hope you pass. After we were done, some of us girls went to get a pedicure just to waste time. We were trying o desperately to relax but it was difficult to say the least. All we could fret over was what we got. Finally we got our grades, we knew we did well and we all jetted the heck out of school. UGH the last day wasn't very relaxing. I did treat myself and got my hair and make up done, Then went back home and hung out. I had the best surprise of my in-laws coming. This was huge for me to have my mother-in-law there. We get to the school and everyone looks fantastic. The graduation was an hour long. Carolyn was our speaker with Seriann and Alecia taking part in the entertainment. Lots of pictures were taken and the crowd was full of supporting friends and family. Callie pinned me, which as you know was such an honor for me. I can't describe that feeling but know it was amazing to have her there..To anyone out there reading my boring blog... I can't wait for the next part of this chapter to begin.. RN year baby, bring it on!!

Out of the shadows!

TOMORROW! TOMORROW is finally LPN graduation. I have feelings of utter aw. It's indescribable how I'm feeling. I am no sad that it's over, and anyone who has been through nursing school knows what I mean, but I am so proud of myself for how far I have come. My parents, in-laws, Kids, Hubby, and friends will be here to celebrate with me. At the best gift of all is, I asked Calle to Pin me. I was so nervous when I asked her. I thought she would think it's corny or that she'd make up an excuse that she was busy. But when I asked, she accepted without hesitation. I feel so honored to have her pin me, so incredibly honored! And thankful! Okay now on to even better news....... I was offered a job today as an LPN!!!!! Holy Moly!!! I never thought I would even work as an LPN getting to use this knowledge that I've gained but I got a very special call today. Guess what friends.... I did it. And thanks for letting me vent all my frustration here. I know the journey isn't over and I'll cry more But in 24 HRS we are done with the LPN year!!!!! WHOOOOO HOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

Don't get too excited...

I can't believe I have 6 more days of school of my PN year. There are feelings coming up inside of me that.. well are a bit surprising. I honestly feel as it gets closer that I might sabotage the whole thing and fail. I am nervous about actually doing REAL nursing stuff. It's so hard to put into words but all I know is this sinking feeling inside kinda sucks. Everybody at school has already changed there status to reflect RN students studying at Weber University, but me... I'm just not there. I still need to focus on getting through the next two weeks. The RN semester is crazy expensive and really wanted to not take out a loan, I already so much money and I just have other things I want to be able to purchase after I graduate, like a house. I have a few more days of studying left, so I better make this short cause today is one of em!
