Ive matriculated YAY!!

So I paid my $350.00 matriculation fee yesterday!!! Which means, I am an official registered student at The Christ College of Nursing !!!! Wow, Im watching my dream begin and it still dosent seem completely real yet. I start class August 24, 2009....i bet it'll feel real then :-)

Eek!!! Its PREP Time

Getting accepted into nursing school was a great feeling!!! Now that the reality of me starting school is setting in Im getting extremely nervous. There is books to buy, time to manage, schedules to change, help that needs to be requested, and even meals to plan (yeah im thinking THAT deep). More than anything I really want everything in my house, emotionally, physically, spiritually, and mentally to be in order. I want to have a proven technique of dealing with stress in place. Dealing with stress!!!!??? Im always stressed out just with the craziness of my everyday life. I can only imagine what my crazy life plus the craziness of being a student nurse will bring...probably more insanity. But enough with my ramblings...Im prepping myself for one of the biggest events of my life. Being a nurse will launch me into my destiny of healing nations. I may not be able to save every patient but the pursuit is a worthy cause. I believe in hope when hope is not an option.


So...lets get it started!!!!!


I dedicate this all to my baby girl, DCD, who is my inspiration for nursing. She is the miracle that keeps on giving...

Acceptance feels excpetionally GOOD

On Monday, June 1, 2009 at approximately 11:30 am I recieved a call from Connie at The Christ College of Nursing. I had just laid down for a quick nap but quickly perked up when she introduced herself. She asked me if i would like to accept a seat in their nursing program for this fall!!!! I can vaguely remember my response but I clearly remember thanking her over and over agian. "Hell yeah I want that seat," is kinda what was running through my mind. I got off the phone and literally started jumping up and down. I was accepted into what is known throughout the city as one of the best nursing programs in cincinnati. I told my sister and she was super excited with me...then I called Velte and he was estatic...then I told I told my brother Darren...then I went to work and told every person I felt would genuinely be happy for me!!
I truly have to thank God for his favor...so many people wanted in this program, over 800 hundred applied for the only 150 seats. I am so grateful.
