Ii want to go to a community college and get my associates degree in nursing. Will I be able to become an RN with that? I went to an alternative high school..and didn't learn anything.:uhoh21: I'm practicing for my ACT test but it's so hard!! I'm struggling to learn and remember the things I'm being taught. My friends mom is a CPN and makes 23$.. is that possible? Should I just do that? I'm scared that I will waste my parents money and make a fool out of myself because I'm not very smart.. I'm not going to lie..I've done a lot of drugs (IN MY PAST) I quit EVERYTHING. My memory is horrible. I get depressed thinking about how stupid I was to do all of those drugs. I was addicted to cocaine for years..done acid..smoked a lot of weed..I tried meth once and I hated it I freaked out.. I'm not completely stupid. But my memory is bad. I quit everything, even ciggerates. And I want to turn my life AROUND!! But is it possible.. What should I do? Please no negative comments. I had a really hard life and I know my actions were stupid that is why I quit everything cold turkey. I don't need you to remind me. I already am haunted by it everyday.
