DSN Oct 2009 Class

Awesome! Can you tell us a little bit about yourself? I am freaked out about the first quarter classes. have you been out of school for a while or are you just plowing right through???

well, i'm really nervous and eager at the same time on starting the program in what... 3 weeks from today or so?! i'm 28 yrs. old and a stay-at-home wife. i've also been a professional student for a while now, lol. i've wanted to becomea nurse for a while now, so this is a huge deal for me. no kids, so that should help with nursing school and all (i hope, at least). just bought a house in lakewood and closing is in a couple of days, so everything [nursing school & buying our first house] are happening all at ones (yikes!). i've yet to pack everything in our apt, since my hubby is working f/t + over-time + currently in the rn-bsn (soon-to-be bsn-msn). but sometime during nursing school, i'm also determined to get back to fitness for good:no: so we'll see...

[color=#483d8b]and yourself??

Well I am a recently engaged 24 yr old. No kids, thank the lord! I am ready for the program to start. I was freaked out about pathophys so i bought an older edition of the text and the study guide and have been going through it to hopefully gain an edge. We are also trying to buy a house. So with planning a wedding, buying a house, and working-I hope I can do it all. My name is Melissa by the way. Where does your hubby work? Where is he getting his rn-bsn?

hi, melissa. nice to meet you. my name's gwen. my hubby works in lutheran and is taking his adn-bsn through regis university online, which allows us to travel and visit are friends and family back east:d i also thought about borrowing the book for pathophys about a month ago, but i sooner realized that our home search amongst others in the market looking for a house was extremely competitive (i.e., bidding wars), due to that home tax credit of $8000. not to mention, i'd chosen to mentally relax for whatever time we have left until we start dsn. but that was a smart move to get a head start on pathophys.

i cannot wait for the program to start, honestly.

Hi there! I hope you guys are off to a great start your first week! I start in January and just thought I'd see if you guys could tell us how your doing so far? Also, how are you financing your tuition? I just met with Robin and I'm so nervous about money now! ;-)
