Greetings future nurses,
I am trying so hard to wait patiently for my school to send a letter, flare, telegram, or even a smoke signal for the Fall 07 admissions. Meanwhile, I am slowly driving family and friends crazy with my constant requests for their opinions on my chances, checking my email/school website several times a day, and even greeting the mail carrier. I have even called the school on several occassions to ask for updates. Each time I cleverly disguise my voice, so they won't know it's me. I've used Southern, Boston, Canadian, British, and a sortta Australian/Irish accents.
Today, I actually made a hateful face at the Letter carrier when she told me I didn't have any mail. She looked totally shocked and offered to lend me a bill. I laughed and informed her all about nursing school as she filled the mailboxes of my subdivision. I am not sure if she even wanted to hear my lamentations, but she couldn't leave without delivering the mail.
I really need reassurance from my fellow pre-nursing students that I am not the only half crazy and slightly neurotic student out there.
I am currently waiting on a decision from Indiana University for either the Indianapolis or Bloomington campuses. (The accelerated program recieved their letters last week.)
