Introductions:"New" and "Old" Students.

Published

How about a thread that will allow us to introduce ourselves to those who are new and the new students can do the same.

I am Stephany, 42, mother of 3 children, a son 22, a daughter 15, and a son 13. I am an LPN of nearly 11 years, and I am in my first semester of a five-semester rn program.

Care to share?

Hi to everyone-

I am currently enrolled in an ADN program.

I just finished Nursing I and am starting Clinical I this January 06. All my prereq's are finished :rotfl: .YIPPY! I am looking forward to starting the clinical phase and facing the challenge that awaits ahead.

This will be my adventure into changing careers, as my first degree is a BA in Major-Sociology/Minor-Psychology and I ended up in the corporate world becoming a manager in Telecom for the last 12 years. I am looking forward to having a career that impacts and helps others.

Good luck to all the other Nursing students.

Hi my name is Brian, I've been admitted to the University of Louisville (Go Cards! :D) in January for pre-reqs and will start the accelerated Second Degree nursing program in May 07, done August 08. Shew! I was thinking it was nuts to be starting a new career at 40, but after poking around here a bit I see that ain't nuthin! You guys who are like... uh... fifty? You're NUTS!

This is my second degree, my first being a BA in Fine Art/Graphic Design. I've been working in design for about sixteen years and needed a change and decided to go ahead and take the leap into what people have been telling me for years I should be doing.

Special thanks to D for the very supportive and loving encouragement to go for it! :D You da most!

Hey, thought I was the oldest!! You got me beat by one year. Starting pre-reqs in january, clinicals (hopefully) 2007.

Hey Guys,

My name is Leah, I live in Chicago, I'm married and have two kids, ages 11 and 5. I am in the last semester of a 2 year associates program, due to graduate 6/06. I went back to school when I was 25, to start my pre req's. Nursing school is the best thing I've ever done for myself, any anxious 1st year's feel free to write, I'm an ex-nervous Nelly myself!
