Bye Bye Summer

Today is officially the last day of my summer vacation. Ugh! I know(click here to view a farewell clip to summer) Monday I start Nursing School. I'm very anxious, nervous & excited! Anxious because I'm ready to start and get in the routine of things. Nervous because well its nursing school and I always fear I'm not going to pass. But I know the Lord has & will be with me every step of the way. If it wasn't for His grace I wouldn't have made it this far. I'm excited because it'll be one day closer to graduating & getting married :) I was suppose to go on a Mission's trip with my church this weekend but decided not to because I have a Pharmacology test the SECOND DAY OF CLASS. Can ya believe that!? .. and that's not all .. you have to make a 90 or better. If not you get kicked out of the whole program, YIKES! So I wanted to stay home & prepare myself for that.

I've always wanted to be a Nurse. When I graduated from High School and went to college there was a 2yr waiting list. So in the meantime I got my pre-requisite classes out of the way and did Surg. Tech since I knew this would help me in my nursing career. I loved it! I graduated from that and now I'm finally starting nursing. In case Surg. Tech is a foreign language to you, I was the Surgeons assistant in the operating room, hee hee. I gotta admit I saw some very interesting things. I get queasy when I see snotty noses & vomit but you could show me the inside of someone all day long. Its so cool. I think everyone should know what their insides look like at least once, hee hee. There are so many fields of nursing you can do but I believe I have a passion for labor & delivery. But that could change next week, Ha! When I did my clinicals in the ER I told my mom & dad I wanted to be an ER nurse then when I did my clinicals in the operating room I said I wanted to be an OR nurse and of course when I did clinicals in labor & delivery I wanted to work in labor & delivery. So that's where Im at as for now, hee hee. I'm just so ready to have my nursing degree so I can get a job & get married & start a family. I would love to get married now but I've always told myself I was going to finish my schooling first. I would much rather have it all out of the way. I know I shouldn't rush things but I guess I'm just at that point in my life where I'm ready to "start the responsibilities of life", I guess you would say. That probably sounds crazy, or am I crazy? Did any of you ever feel like that? Well, I hope everyone has an absolutely wonderful weekend. As for me I'll be studying :p So I'll be taking a break from the blog world for a couple of days. So don't post anything too good. I don't wanna miss anything, hee hee :)

Sounds like to me you have a great thing going. Don't rush things to much, you have a lifetime to be "grown". Enjoy each day for what it is... Good luck in nursing school, you will do great!!!! We will be right beside you for support and prayers...!!!!

OK now I'm sad. I hate to think summer is gone already but your right. Collage starting back Monday and regular school the next week so summer is about over.
I know you will do really well in nursing school. Some people are just meant to do stuff like that and I sure am not one of them. Now I can handle the noses and other stuff (I guess it's a mama thing) but I can't handle the looking at the insides....GROSS!!!
I will be saying an extra prayer for you as well as Jessica and all the others starting back on Monday.

You will do just fine. You have the Lord on your side!!!

Love ya

You are doing the right thing by waiting till you finish school to get married and start a family. I can tell you this Ryan isn't going anywhere. You have all of us ladies to lean on if you need us but most of all you have the Lord who you know will always be with you. You are going to be a great nurse. Good luck next week on your test.

Oh, I can so identify with what you're feeling right now. I was the same way. I wanted to quit college and get married already! But my mom wanted me to finish school so I stuck with it although it was perfectly agonizing. Now, I cannot tell you how delighted I am that I got it done with before getting married! Oh, it is SO worth it. I have a few friends who decided to go ahead and get married and have kids before finishing and they really regret it b/c they have to deal with a family life as well as school and they are just stressed out.

Anyway, just wanted to encourage you to keep going. It seems like it's taking forever but it definitely is so worth it! :)

I hope your studying goes well!

O where o where has my little piggy gone - or where or where can she be? (I know it's suppose to be doggy but I miss piggy)

That little tune came into my head this morning when I checked all the blogs and you hadn't posted for a while. And I sure did miss you last night at the Bible study.

I do understand how you feel about wanting to get school over so you can get on with "real" life. I felt the same way when I was younger. But take this little advise - enjoy the journey - because now is the only "real" time we have. I'll be praying that the test goes well.

Hi Bryanna,
First of all, we missed you Monday night!
I didn't realize I had not commented on your past posts! I guess I just read them and kept going! Goodness! Well, I can't add anything to what has already been said but I do want to stress ~ enjoy this time! I am so bad at this. My grandmother was fussing at me the other day and it hit me I am always looking back or ahead, never enjoying THIS day.
Hugs
Michelle
