Tomorrow is the big day!!!


Nursing classes start tomorrow!!!! I'm super excited!

I went for orientation yesterday and learned a whole lot about what to expect. They gave us our first reading assignment and we will begin in full swing on Friday! I was a bit concerned that Friday would be a syllabus day and more orientation, but they did as I hoped and gave us ample information on Wednesday, so that class would begin on Friday.

I had to buy books on Wednesday as well. I had to buy 5 books and 2 additional resources. One of those 2 is a Nurse's Med Deck full of drug cards, the other is an RN Notes pocket guide.

I bought the biggest book that I've ever had to buy though. It is huge!!! Not a little overwhelming!

Tonight, I'm going to Hattiesburg to stay with some of our college church members who have an apt up there. That way I won't have to drive quite so far on my first day of school. They say traffic is horrible on campus on the first day. I'm still not completely sure where to park anyway, so I guess getting there early will be in my best interest!

I've met several other girls in the class--one older than me and 2 younger than me. I hope that they'll be some who persevere and make it. I'm always very wary of studying with people who aren't committed. We'll just have to see. At least I know several people now. That does make it a little bit easier.

Pray for me! I'm really excited, but kinda scared too!

I'm so glad you're blogging again! I'm excited for you and can't wait to hear all about it. You're ahead of David; he starts after Labor Day (clinicals at Tech). His Microbiology class (at ULM) starts Tuesday night, though. Write (or post again) soon with an update!
