Oh My Gosh!

Today is a big day!!!!

The first day of school was Tuesday but I feel like the first day was two weeks ago at nursing orientation. It was two full days of information, expectation, reassurance and love. I went in looking for some clarification regarding the next few months of my life and left feeling like a privileged challenge laid before me. One that will require hard work but also one that I am capable of especially because I am part of a exceptional nursing family that will shape and support me with loving hands.

And today is the first day I really get to know my nursing family. I will spend seven hours with my clinical instructor, nursing class and clinical group. We will dive into the everyday basics of nursing. I have a feeling they are the most basic of the basics and barely cover the nursing iceberg. I am nervous! I know I can do it! I am gonna feel scrutinized because I will be scrutinized. Sigh. Big Sigh!!

But it will be done by tonight. I am nervous but ready for this step. I am ready to be challenged and motivated. I am ready to experience the science coma with a nursing twist. I think it will be partially familiar yet shockingly new.

I have already immersed myself in material for the past week. This morning I am reviewing and condensing my notes trying t get that last minute preparations done.

Well, I must study now!!

Bye!!
