Starting Nursing Program Early..Excited & Nervous

[FutureRNKKP]

I dont know what to do with myself I just got my acceptance letter for an earlier start date Spring 2013, I orignally got accepted for Fall 2013. I could't be more excited.But im sooo nervous...I have a 2year old and he starts headstart Fall 13 so it was perfect cause I didnt have to pay for childcare; but I cant pass up this opportunity to start early, besides he's half the reason I'm pursing this and so motivated about it. I have a good support system, but I'm just nervous cause I dont know what to expect and I heard the first semester is overwhelming. I had to share, not to many people understand my excitement:)

Relax, it will all work out if you want it to and if it is suppose to. Call on all of your resources, pray(if that helps you), eat healthy and exercise. Creativity also helps nursing students who need to juggle many things. Congrats and best of luck.

P.S.

I also realized not to use other's experiences as the "truth". You may find 1st semester to be not as bad is you think.

This. I'm on week three, and mad that I concerned myself with others negative experiences. It is a LOT to take in...no lie, but I have a class full of classmates all helping each other out, and instructors that want us to pass. Perhaps this will change in the future, but the experience will be what you make of it.
