HI EVERYONE,

I AM A LPN CURRENTLY IN A LPN TO RN BRIDGE PROGRAM IN GEORGIA. THIS IS MY LAST SEMESTER AND I CAN NOT WAIT TO GRADUATE ON MAY 5TH . I AM SERIOUSLY THINKING ABOUT RELOCATING TO FLORIDA AFTER GRADUATION. MY FAMILY AND I VACATION THERE ABOUT 3 TIMES A YEAR ANYWAY SO I SAY, WHY NOT JUST MOVE THERE. FOR ALL THOSE WHO ARE JUST GETTING STARTED, I WON'T TELL YOU THAT IT IS A PIECE OF CAKE, BUT IT DOES GET EASIER AFTER A WHILE. I DON'T KNOW ABOUT ANYONE ELSE, BUT AT THIS POINT, MY LIFE IS ALL NURSING. I EAT, SLEEP, AND BREATHE NURSING. I DON'T HAVE A SOCIAL LIFE ANYMORE, BUT I KNOW IT WILL BE WORTH IT IN THE END. NOT ONLY AM I DOING THE BRIDGE PROGRAM, BUT I AM ALSO GETTING MY PRE-NURSING DEGREE AT THE SAME TIME, SO I REALLY AND TRUELY DON'T HAVE A LIFE. THE REASON I AM GOING FOR A PRE-NURSING DEGREE IS BECAUSE I AM A SINGLE MOTHER OF TWO TEENAGED BOYS, AND I WANT TO GO FARTHER IN NURSING. I AM GOING TO GET IT IN STEPS. I WILL TAKE THIS SUMMER OFF JUST TO HANG OUT WITH MY BOYS , OTHER FAMILY MEMBRES, AND FRIENDS THAT I HAVE OVERLOOKED THIS PAST YEAR. THEN I WILL GO FOR RN TO BSN STARTING THIS FALL. THEN I WANT TO GET A MASTER'S DEGREE. MY ULTIMATE GOAL IS TO BE A PEDIATRIC NURSE PRACTITIONER. SO WHAT ARE SOME OF YOUR PLANS AND FUTURE GOALS? I LOOK FORWARD TO READING YOUR POSTS, MEETING NEW PEOPLE, AND HEARING FROM YOU ALL.

Welcome to allnurses.com! I went through the same thing...LPN to RN, and yes, it seems like one does nothing but eat, sleep, and breath NURSING. Be sure to take some time for yourself, ok? You DO have allnurses to fall back on.....
