Light at the end of the tunnel and good news!

December 9th. Yes people, this is the day we've been waiting for: my graduation!! I am so excited, but nervous about how fast it's come up. Last week I finished my clinical, forever! It was a wonderful experience, but I was ready to be done. I'm pretty sure I will cry at graduation, it's been really hard, but I really did, I'm finishing nursing school!

Well, almost.

The RN program is only an associate's degree (I know what you're thinking, all that work and 5 years of school for an associates??? Yeah, I thought the same thing). So I applied to the RN to BSN program starting in January and I found out yesterday I got in!! I'm so excited believe it or not, I want to bust through the rest of school and be DONE. It's online so I'll still be able to work as a wicked sweet nurse at the same time. You're probably wondering why I'm telling you I got in, but it's so exciting for us because it's actually really competitive, so I'm really happy and feel really blessed I got in. So, by May of 2011, 6 years after I first enrolled in college, I will have my bachelor's degree!! haha I kind of feel like Tommy Boy when he tries to defend to another guy how long he's been at college,

"Lots of people go to college for seven years!"
"Yeah, they're called doctors."
:) Classic.
