I remember my 3rd day in the RN program, I came home with full intentions of quitting. Overwhelmed was an understatment, I literally cried myself to sleep that night. I got up the next morning and the sun was up so, I knew it couldn't be all bad so, I went back to school for another chance. I found a study group of fellow insomniacs and we push each other to the end. We whined,moaned,and cried about care plans,but we finished them. We studied until all hours of the night for tests, forgoing food at times (never coffee). I'm glad I did, because first semester went by so fast it all became a blur. I'm happy to report I start my 4th and final semester in Feb. and can't wait for June 8, 2009. I just want to say keep putting one foot in front of the other because the prize is within reach!
