yeah...LOL...You will find out how strong you ARE, how challenging school after 40 can be, (you know about that by now I am sure!!!) and just how awesome you feel as you gain that sense of accomplishment!!! I cried, threatened to quit...(No, seriously, I threatened to QUIT!!!) Could not for the LIFE of me figure out how the 20 somethings were handling school, while they juggled their partying schedules...Threatened to KILL all the 20 somethings....Wondered why I ever did this to begin with....Threatened to KILL my husband....wanted to eat myself into oblivion, all while I was studying and praying the info would stick... Did I mention I wanted to KILL my instructors, their offspring and the adjunct staff as well??? Then, I threatened to quit once, and one of those stinkin' 20 somethings informed me that it was only 2 days to graduation...I finally relaxed!!! LOL If you have ANY of those feelings, RELAX you are normal and will be just fine!! My advice? Read this post MONTHLY to inspire confidence in your "I candoitness"!!! Happy studies...and remember, Nursing is a PROCESS!!! LOL
