15 Years after H.S. Graduation

I'm posting this on its own thread because I really want everyone keep your hope and dreams alive! I really hope that none of you give up. Even if you get denied several times or have to wait several years, keep trying and your time will come.

(As most of you know, I was denied for Spring '06, but retook my Algebra class and reapplied.)

The letters came today!!!!!!

Come June 1st, it will have been fifteen years since I graduated from high school. I went straight into college in pursuit of my nursing degree, but never got to the point of applying.

15 years after I graduated from high school, I finally have an acceptance letter into the nursing program!

I will start at North Lake College in the Fall '06 program! :balloons: :balloons:

Please, no one give up!!!!!!

Thanks to all of you for your support!!!!!!!!![/bANANA]

Thank you everyone!

To those waiting for letters, or waiting for your turn, this is a unbelievable feeling that I hope I never loose. I hope you all get a chance to feel this way! DON'T GIVE UP! :balloons:
