OMG, this made me cry!

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

I was in tears when I finished watching this video clip.

I realize that nursing isn't as "pretty" as job recruiters want you to believe, and there will be days that make you want to pull your hair out, but I have been persuing this dream for so long.

Now, I'm torn between needing to work, especially for extra Christmas money and health insurance so that my husband can continue to build his business.

He doesn't understand "why" I want to do this, when I could help him, and make more money. He understands my dream, and says when I get accepted to nursing school I can quit working. I told him I don't think I can work and make an A on a 4 week Algebra class.

However, to get back to the point, I'm trying to deal with all of the "real-world" stuff going on in my household, and I came across this video.

It totally sums up what I am feeling, and I was in tears just by watching it and listening to it. I can totally relate.:bluecry1: (The end is the tear jerker, so if you watch it, watch all of it.)

The above are recruitment videos, but nursing videos, nonetheless. At this point, just seeing nurses in action gets me all giddy! LOL
