it's been a long time and a lot of work finishing my pre and co-requisites. i am finally on the precipice of what i hope will be the beginning of a new journey. my application was accepted last week and now i am just waiting to hear something.
here's a bit about me... i am 44 and have 9-year-old twin girls. i work full time at a hospital in medical records and have been taking one class at a time for the last 3+ years. i am in my last co-requisite right now, which is cst 110. i have wanted to be a nurse since 1985, back when i would have graduated high school (i have a ged instead), but the timing wasn't right and i wasn't ready. i actually went to nvcc back then for a semester, when nursing was still at annandale. i went back to school in 1994, but put it away again until the fall of 2008. i am hoping the third time will be the charm for me!
who else is out there waiting with me? can we commiserate a bit? i would love to hear your stories.
