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 I am 29 years old mother of one...recently graduated from an LPN program...awaiting NCLEX. I am also jumping right back in to go for the RN. I'm applying to about four schools. Two of which I really want to get into. I live in Brooklyn, NY anyone from BK or any of the five boroughs can send me a PM. Looking foward meeting new people who want to care for the world like myself. I think AllNurses is fantastic...I love being here.

Hi All, I am a new subscriber to this site. I am so excited about the ADN program I am about to begin. I am almost 50 and just retired as a school teacher. I look forward to hearing how you other new students do as we all begin this new adventure!

Hi all. I've been lurking for a while and thought it was time to register and introduce myself. 33, mother one 8 yo girl, wife to a pilot (that's going to make scheduling fun!). Starting an ADN program in August, with graduation in 2009. I'm hoping to go into LDR, and eventually become a nurse midwife, but that's all subject to change based on clinical and other experiences, I suppose.

This has already been a great source, and I haven't even started classes yet. Looking forward to getting to know all of you.

Hi I'm Ana, single. I'm currently taking BSN and will graduate March 2010. Wants also to take another years of CRNA or maybe mastery in Psychology. But for now, it's still strides to take on this journey.Good luck to all of us! :pumpiron:

Hi everyone, my name is Ryan, I'm 28, married and from Minnesota. I start an RN program on the 28th of August at Minneapolis Community College, hopefully graduating in 2009. I have my BA from Gustavus Adolphus College in Political Science. I am currently working as a nursing assistant. This board seems very helpful and I look forward to joining forces with you all in the trenches in the next couple of years.
