I'm a school girl, with my school gear!!

Well I did it! I am officially a full-time college gal. I started the fall semester this Wednesday with 16 hrs. I must say, I am very excited and proud of my self. (Just a lil) Some of the classes I am taking are Math, English, Psychology of human, Anatomy & Physiology with A&P lab, Pathophysiology. My path. and psych. classes are online classes so they should be interesting. But lemme tell ya folks, the classes were the least of my expenses! My books alone were close to a thousand bucks! I'm like GEEEEZZZ this science stuff is expensive! But gotta have em.

I think the most thing I am excited about is learning all the new cool stuff, and that this time I will actually apply myself and study. Also looking forward to having an actual foundation of math! I never could really get it or it stick in my brain in high school,or elementary for that matter, and when I went into class the other day I felt like I just may be able to get it this time! Plus my teacher seems like a really nice older man who will help.

Another thing I am looking forward is achieving a degree. When I was younger I never thought I would have the confidence to attend college and was afraid of failing. Partly because of the hard times I have always had with my math classes and then the poor teaching experiences as well. Now that I am older I realize as long as I go to class, study a lot, ask for help, there really is'nt any way I could fail! It all depends on how much I want to succeed, and as far as I'm concerned in my mind there is no other option! I will get through all these classes become a R.N. because it s my dream and long time goal. I cant wait to be able to look back at what I have achieved and know that nothing can or will stop me from achieving what I want! I will never have to worry about a dumb Dr. laying me off, or worry about jobs that have a good income, or worry if I will be able to support myself and have the things and adventures I would like. But the biggest thing I am excited about is being able to have the job I dream of that I LOVE! I am thinking about studying labor and delivery. (Thanks to all my beautiful girlfriends that have allowed me to come in just 30 minutes after they delivered and experience that AWESOME time with them.) or neo-natal, or a child speciality. But who knows, I am also interested in Nuro. But for sure when I decide, I want to be a traveling nurse. Go to other countries and work with kids and work with kids even in the U.S. I mean i'm not gonna limit myself her folks! Once that road is open, the pedal is too the medal! Watch out cause you will have to come and visit me wherever I am! But hey, you will have free room and board in some beautiful place. Oh and of course I am not putting out the possibility of marriage or kids (I have people ask me that all the time when I say what I want to do)I am just setting my goals for me as for today! And what ever cool kid (hottie) comes along that digs me and vice-versa can hop on and join this ride!!! Cause gals......its gonna be a fun one!!!!!
