Lately I've been reading blogs, specifically nurses blogs, and they have given me the motivation to start my own. So for anyone reading this ...welcome to my blog. I hope you will enjoy reading it as much as I'll enjoy writing it. Mostly this will be a form of therapy for me (as most blogs are) but I hope I can provide some insight to others just starting to pursue a career in nursing.
The trials and tribulations of Nursing Novice starts here...
My pre-reqs are done and I aced my last few classes - woohoo! I have a really good GPA and I did good on my NET. Last week I turned in my application and now the 4-6 wk waiting game begins. I just have to be 1 out of 100 to get accepted. That's all? Piece of cake! I'll be anxiously coming home everyday to walk through the door, quickly kiss and hug my 2 sweet smiling little ones and then run to the spot on the kitchen counter where my hubby puts the mail.
So why nursing? Well, lets see... I think it all started when I asked my parents for a microsope for my birthday when I was about 12 years old. Science was my favorite subject in school. I am a research junkie for anything medically related. I am a hard sci-fi fan. My favorite shows are Trauma-Life in the ER, House, Dexter, and just recently - Autopsy. When I used to work in the hotel industry, the thing I liked most was helping people and talking to people from different places. I like to work independantly while still being part of a team. Oh and I get bored easily. I think that pretty much sums it up. I'll guess I will find out soon enough if I have what it takes to be a good nurse.
