Thanks everyone, I am taking all of your good advice to heart. JJRN as soon as i am able to PM I will because I definitely have questions for you. I can't PM because I'm a new member to allnurses (I guess).

UPENN. I HAVE SORTA FELT IT WASN'T REAL EITHER UNTIL APRIL CAME AND I KNOW MAY IS A FEW WEEKS AWAY. IT'S REAL AND I'M AFRAID VERY AFRAID. I GUESS IT JUST THE FEAR OF THE UNKNOWN. THANK YOU ALL WHO REPLIED TO MY THREAD. I GUESS MISERY REALLY DOES LOVE COMPANY. NO BUT REALLY ITS GOOD TO KNOW I AM NOT ALONE!

First I Would Like To Hello To All The Nurses Out There! This Is My 1st Post. I Am Starting Nurse Anesthesia School May 2006. I Want To Ask Any Crna's Or Srna's How They Knew Nurse Anesthesia Was Right For Them. When You Started School Were You 100% Sure It Was Right For You. I Knew After 2 Years Of Being A Rn That I Would Have To Go Back For A Masters Degree In Something Administration Or Nurse Leadership. Then I Thought I Don't Want To Be A Nurse Manager. I Worked In The Nicu And Attended Many Deliveries On Any Given Night And Had The Opportunity To See Nurse Anesthetist In Action During C Sec. I Was Inspired And Immediately Did My Research About The Profession And Decided To Pursue This Career. But Now A Month B4 School I Am Feeling Anxiety And Anxiousness Out Of This World. Was This The Case For Anyone Else. I Keep Trying To Tell Myself I Am An Rn Whose Going To Learn How To Admister Anesthesia But The Reality Of School And Having No More Free Time Is Scary. HAS ANYONE ELSE FELT THIS WAY HOW DID U DEAL!! THANKS
