Pinning is 3 weeks away and based on the grade of my last exam(84) I decided to go shopping for my pinning outfit. The dress I was looking at was 57 bucks and the shoes were 33 dollars. Poor ole me just wanted to spend 60 bucks and thats it. After trying on the skirts and tops the employees decided that I'll look much better in a dress. When I declined due to financial reasons they told me not to worry about. The manager gave me everything for 60 bucks !! She said since I'm a student and she's proud of me she'll give me a break. I feel so blessed and happy. Now all I have to do is get my pin and hat and I'm all set. Just thought I'd share my experience. (I'm wearing my brand new pearly white cute shoes as I'm typing this. )

that is so wonderful!! i wish that i could just thank everyone that gave me little blessings like that in the last few years. just remember to pay it forward, and in some way, give back. maybe someone in the next class could use a textbook or two? and congratulations on your pinning...your life is just beginning!

Congratulations to you, and bless that store owner for her kindness.
But I must set you straight on one thing....there is no such thing as "cute" pearly white nursing shoes :)
Enjoy your day!
