  1. Hello to all! I am new to the site. I've been reading posts on this site from people that happened to be in the same situation I'm in. I think what I'm looking for is some great advice from ppl that are nurses and to mainly get the confidence to feel like I'm not out of my mind. Here's my story... I am currently a Special Ed teacher in a high school in North Carolina. I have a BA in Communications and a Masters in Special Education. I have not finished my first full year of teaching and I am already wondering how in the world am I going to go through a WHOLE YEAR of teaching next year. I'm so ready to get out of teaching, it's not even funny. I keep telling myself and others reassure me that it's always like that the 1st year and maybe the 2nd, but it "gets better"...but no, I WANT OUT. It's not even the paperwork or the adminstration...those two aspects are fine...it's the everything else. While I hold up very well, inside I'm ready to just walk out. I handle my students and I get a long well with everyone, but I just feel teaching is not for me. I am now looking to get into nursing. I can do paperwork all day...so I guess I will try to do nursing administration or a director of nursing. I guess what I really want to know is if I'm crazy for going back to school after acquiring so many school loans and having specialized in education with a masters degree. Will my masters degree help me once in the nursing field even though it's not in nursing. Is there any specific area of nursing I should go into being that I already have a degree that specializes in children with disabilities? I really need some direction. I plan on attending Guilford Tech Community College in January. I'm on the CNA registry, I have A&P I (taking A&P II in the Fall), Human Growth and Dev, and College Biology. All I really need is microbiology which I can take in program. Also I need to take the TEAS exam which scares me to death. I must take it before September '12. Any suggestions or advice on anything??? Whatever you can tell me specific to my situation will be greatly appreciated. I feel like I'm truly searching for my purpose in life and I just want to be happy in a career that I can do until retirement. Please help.....
  2. I am looking to take the TEAS soon. Any suggestions on what to study? Thanks.
