I am currently in college working through my prerequisites, almost done! I worked in medsurg/ortho for 1 1/2 years as a CNA for my first nursing assistant job. I just landed a job in the NICU. I am now working towards aesthetics, I learned the hospital is not for me AND THATS OKAY! My goal is to become an aesthetics nurse, and I am SO excited for what comes next.
Have a beautiful day!

Well it all depends on what you can handle, my first and second semester I was working full time as a CNA and taking 4 classes. My third and fourth semester up to now I am taking 2-4 classes and working part time (just my pre-reqs). I had to re-take ...
Breathe, give yourself time to be upset, but with that being said EVERYTHING good or bad happens for a reason. Pick yourself up, dust yourself off, go back and kick some booty if that's really your dream career. You can do it.

Thank you for more responses! It is refreshing to hear all sides, good and bad. I am still looking forward to going to nursing school and becoming the best nurse I can be. You guys are awesome, seriously.
Read out of the book, did power points, quizzes, workbook questions, video clips and worked in the skills lab each day we had class. My course was 3 months; 2 days a week 4 hours classes.

I don't think nurses MUST love their job to be a good nurse, it was just general curiosity on why or what they didn't like about it. Thank you for wishing me luck and your honest response (:

Well the community college I'm going into is only a AS program after my pre-req's. As much I would like to go to a university I cant afford it, and plus community colleges are just as good. After I graduate I will get my BSN online in a 15 month prog...
