Please forgive while I brag

[peaceful2100, BSN, RN]

OMG, I just had to share with someone. So excuse me if I brag a minute. IF you hate those who brag then warning don't read. I just have to let some of this energy out of me. I have been literally, REALLY doing cartwheels and have been in one of those really happy moods today. This is like one of the best things that has happened to me in a long time. I have worked my rear end off for 3 and a half years to even acheive this and never did but finally did. I am just so hyper right about now. Everyone, is probably thinking what am I rambling on and on about already. I got all my grades in the mail today and I have made DEANS HONOR ROLL!!! My GPA was 3.8 for this semester I have never made anything over a 3.0. Now graduate school is definitely looking more and more possible for me. For a while I was thinking I am not going to be good enough to get into graduate school. Wow, this totally change my outlook for the future and worries I had for the future. I also got a special award for the most academically approved GPA at my school. My overall GPA finally landed at a 3.0. My goal by graduation is a 3.2 that definitely looks possible. I can't believe my very first semester of college in pre-req's I barely had a 1.5 GPA because of not being ready at the time now I have achieved one of my dreams of making DEANS HONOR ROLL.

Ok, I am done!

Brag, why not! I am so proud of you! I have been in school none stop since Fall 2000 and have made either President's or Dean's list each semester but 2 and I know how it feels!

I have also been nominated for National Dean's and academic scholastic recognition. It is good that we are able to share our ups and our downs. I guess I should have said congratulations and posted the rest under "Dean's List".

Don't ever be ashamed of your accomplishments! If you can't be proud of yourself, nobody can!

I only hope I can be in your position a short time from now. You must have worked your tail off so a reward like this sure if worth the effort isn't it?

Congrats!
