Introductions:"New" and "Old" Students.

Nice to meet you Stephanie and Chris. Hello everyone. I've been looking at this site for months and I finally decided to join in. My name's Sheree, 25, no kids, and I will be continuing pre-reqs for my BSN degree starting this summer. I am a second degree student with a BS in Computer Info Systems. I'm also a certified pharmacy technician. This site seems very informative and I have learned so many things from reading these posts. My future plans are to gain nursing experience and become a nurse anesthetist.

Hi all, I have been reading this board for a long time and never had the guts to sign up...

I am Jan, age 36, I have one little girl age 3 and 2 doggies...(I am married)...I currently live in Co., but will soon be moving to Austin, Tx, do to my husbands job transfer...

I am a part time student completing my pre-reqs...

I have had to take some time off with this move, I am very frustrated with this. It took me along time to get back to school and I completed 5 classes and found out about the move...since the date of the move is pending on the sale of our home, I can't go to school incase we move mid semester...

I feel I am going backwards, I want to restart class as soon as we get to Austin, but with residency and all I am struggling between the additional cost and just wanting to cont. school...

anyway, just wanted to say hi
