Self Proclaimed Child Prodigy Starting Over

Nurses Men

Published

ok, I'm 22. Coasted through high school. Got offers from various schools. :banghead:Failed to make up a blemish on my high school transcripts. Ended up going to Sacramento State, Undeclared. Did well my first year. Joined the best African-American Fraternity between my freshman and sophomore years, :banghead:Failed horribly. Had no idea what I wanted to do with life. Became estranged from family so I submerged myself into the fraternity. Went to a local community college. :banghead:Failed again. Worked for Hollywood Video, did well. Was moving up. got tired of it. Decided to continue going back to school. Continued to fail. Fell into depression. Went 5150 like Brittany Spears and Katt Williams.:bugeyes: (It was so far from "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest", although there was an older gent who dialed the Operator constantly to contact Ronald Reagan) I really did this!!! Went to St. Joseph's medical center for a few days. 4.5 to be exact. Met and banded with a few young men. Grew restless without having a career or finding my calling. I've contemplated and contemplated about what it is I want to do. So after 4 years of struggling to make it in this world I sucked it up and moved back home. Enrolled into Mission Community College, Hoping to get into the LVN program. Trying to go on from there. I honestly believe that I am here to help people. So, 22 years old and starting all over again and very excited. :yeah:. Hopefully I can use this brain that God gave me and hopefully some of the wisdom and life's experiences that I have obtained and become a Registered nurse. I love God and know that he puts us through things for reasons. I've struggled. I've cried. I've felt like dying. I know there are people who have done worse and are going through worse. Starting on this new path. May God be with me every step of the way. DOn't know how far I may go. Whatever I may end up within the Nursing Field I hope to make an Impact. I love and admire the profession so much after my stay in the hospital. Wish me luck. I consider myself young. I just want to get as far as I can before God calls me home.

Wish me luck everyone!!!
