Roll Call - Introduce Yourselves, Texans!

[TheCommuter]

Go ahead, break the ice, and introduce oneself!

I guess I'll start. I'm originally from California, and have resided in Texas since late 2005. I've been an LVN since January 2006, and I currently work in the rehab section of a skilled nursing facility in Fort Worth. Since August 2006, I have earned 38 college credit hours worth of prerequisite classes to be applied toward one of several local LVN-to-RN bridge programs.

I'm not a Texas native. We moved to West Texas 10 years ago when I finished graduate school. We moved to SC for one year (natives of GA) and hated it with a passion; couldn't wait to move back to Texas! I love the people and the low humidity and have found that the landscape grows on you. I'm a FNP.

Hi,

I grew up all over the U.S. born in England (airforce brat).I have a daughter that lives in San Diego and a wonderful husband. I am a licenced esthetician and permanent makeup artist and work at a medispa on the mainland. We moved to Texas a year ago,due to my husband being a commercial diver. We live in Galveston and it took little getting use to, but, liking it very much now. I am currently going to school for my preqs. for the ADN program. I am always open for any advice. Looking forward to the journey.:hpygrp:

Hi everyone! I was born and raised in San Antonio and transplanted to central Texas for college. I'm not practicing nursing right now because I am waiting for my second child to be born ANY TIME NOW :)

Then in May we will be relocating so I'm applying for work in all the big cities (because I'm not sure where we are going yet). Anyway, it is lovely to meet you all!!!

Born in California, got to Texas as quick as I could (about 7). Went to h.s. in El Paso, went to Texas A&M.

Whooooooooooooooooooppppppppp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Joined the Army. After time in Cali, was sent back to good old Texas. Sadly, I am now an expatriate living in the DC Area. Going for my BSN in Maryland. I may move back but my heart is torn between Texas and Cali.

Where in EP did you go to H.S.???? I was born and raised there. Graduated from Loretto Academy.

I'm a Native Texan born and raised in Arlington and still live here...I probably won't ever leave Texas, all my family is here!

I am in the process of applying to the ADN program at Weatherford College and Tarrant County College...Keeping my fingers crossed!!!!!

Imagine that! I graduated from Loretto in 91, so we probably don't really know any of the same people. I was long gone before you made it to H.S!

I'm an RN currently living in SW Mo. I'm not a Texan yet, but hope to be by May!
