    Default nursing school

    I just got accepted into a nursing program and I'm so freaked out! It's been a little bit since I've been in school, and I have to take some pre-reqs this summer session, which starts in a month! I'm just freaking out, even though I know it's my ticket out of dancing. And I'm proud of myself for getting in, because I guess it's a pretty competitive program. Oh, and I just spent $300 on used books for 2 classes.

    Congratulations! Don't stress, you'll be fine. If you were smart enough to get accepted, I'm sure you'll kick ass once you start.

    It's the LPN program for a year, then one more year for RN. I'm nervous and excited at the same time. I finally found something I wanted to do since getting my useless BS (in Computer Science) in '01!
