Hey Pumpkin, I definitely agree with your dad! I have to say that each route I have gone and every class I have taken has benefited me in my journey to this point...but sometimes I just wish I had the silly degree and the silly piece of paper!! (not that it is really silly for all those holding them, or me if I had one, but you know what I mean!) But really I know this has been an important process for me.
Renee, I know, it is tough to decide when I want to plague ourselves with stress...I think Mex makes a good point and I think I am going to take that advice!
NOTHING!!!! I am finishing up the last of my pre-req's/co-req's for a BSN program!! This is my first summer off in a few years and I am looking forward to spending it with my kids. I feel a little wierd taking it off but I'm sure I'll get over it! I call it the calm before the storm!!
I am taking AP 1&2 this summer too.. everyone I have told looks at me like I have two heads. They just keep telling me I wont be able to do it and with someone who doesn't have very much self esteem and motivation. Oh well, I am taking psychology online too.
VieraGrl1030, you can do anything you set your mind to! Don't let anybody get you down. Sure it will be a lot of work, but if you don't give up and you put a lot of time and effort into the work then you will be just fine. You will have to get motivated though! :)
Spring 08 will also be the semester I will be applying for admission into a BSN program. I've already been accepted into a ADN program but I'm on a wait list that is 2 1/2 years long so I decided to move on.
Sociology and Physc Human Lifespan this Summer 2007.
Since my ABSN school doesn't start until Summer 2008, I can "take it easy" and do my prerequisites part-time/2 per semester for three semesters. Well, I am working full time too, but it is just a desk job.
I'm finishing my pre-reqs, and will start the nursing classes in the Fall. We're on quarters, not semesters, so I just started Spring quarter last week.
