Wooh, if you ever need extra money, you should seriously be a stand up comic! Your monologue was hilarious and so true! :rotfl: You had me practically crying from laughter. I could hardly stop laughing to write this reply. But, thanks for the laughs Wooh, I really needed it tonight!

Christy you made me cry! I even had to use many tissues, it was that bad. :-) But, what a wonderful journal. I loved how you remained positive and persevered despite the pt. changes to pass your CPNE. You didn't let it, 'freak you out' too much. Congratulations Christy, GN and much success in your Nursing career!

Hi Everyone, Even though I never physically met Daytonite, her help and support on Allnurses made you feel like you knew her. I wanted to express my thanks to her and extend my deepest sympathy to her family and friends by making this graphic. Trust me, I'm no graphic expert, but I do enjoy trying in my spare time...smile! (I'll stick to Nursing though!) Anyway, rest in peace Daytonite, you will be greatly missed.

A FIVE unit micro course online is at EDUKAN.

I love to read all of your posts. You give me great hope and inspiration to get my RN. Congratulations and good luck in all your endeavors!

Hi, MP17, Yes, I heard that the GA Board of Nursing stopped Excelsior Colleges ADN Program in GA. But, I didnt know that GA doesn't except nurses that get there license's from Online Nursing Programs too. What a shame! Oh well, I guess I can't go either route; I'll keep looking...

Thanks Moga. I will check out Abraham Baldwin College in Tifton's Bridge Program. Do you go there and is there a waitlist?

Thanks Sandiesown! I will look into the program.

Thanks Studytime. I will check it out. Have a great weekend!

Hi FutureLPNGirl, I had to quit my job to attend nursing school full-time and that was one of the best things I ever did in my life. Family and friends tryed to sway my decision and made me feel bad too. But, now I have the last laugh and I'm going back to school again! :chuckle Follow your dreams, you only have one life to live. Just always keep your head up, stay away from negative influences, study hard and most of all DONT QUIT! (Plus if you quit, you wont ever hear the last of it from them!) Good luck in school!

Sorry, I cant answer your question. But, I'm interested in learning about which school offers an Online LPN-RN Nursing Program in GA? Thanks

Congratulations!!! Good luck in school!

Here's an inspirational poem that I have to share with you... Don't You Quit When things go wrong, as they sometimes will, When the road you're trudging seems all uphill, When the funds are low and the debts are high, And you want to smile, but you have to sigh, When care is pressing you down a bit Rest if you must, but don't you quit. Life is queer with its twists and turns, As every one of us sometimes learns, And many a fellow turns about When he might have won had he stuck it out. Don't give up though the pace seems slow You may succeed with another blow. Often the goal is nearer than It seems to a faint and faltering man; Often the struggler has given up When he might have captured the victor's cup; And he learned too late when the night came down, How close he was to the golden crown. Success is failure turned inside out The silver tint in the clouds of doubt, And you never can tell how close you are, It might be near when it seems afar; So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit It's when things seem worst that you must not quit. Good luck in school!

Jessy, but before you transfer, remember Bronx CC may have a waitlist as well. Find out if they do and how long you may have to wait. Good luck!

Heres a poem to sum up what I feel about your age and learning... You are never too old to learn by Francis Duggan You are never too old to learn so they say And from life we do learn something new every day You may be in your nineties showing your years in gray And you have not stopped learning if your memory's okay But I must be the silliest man on the street For I still make mistakes and my mistakes I repeat Older but not wiser and 'twould be fair to say That I do not learn from life every day And that wisdom belongs to the aged only lies I do know some old people and they are not wise Yet the more we learn from life the more our realization does grow That so very little about life we do know And those who say they know it all to themselves only lie As we learn from life till the moment we die. GO FOR IT...!!! Good Luck in School....!!!
