Enter Nursing School

I applied for nursing school some time ago. It is amazing the amount of effort it takes to get the classes needed to get into an RN program. A full two years is needed to even apply...
My college had a two year Associate in Science-Nursing degree, so I still have to go get my BSN. That fateful summer I received a letter that broke my heart--you are on the wait list. Crushed, but not defeated, I went and applied to retake certain classes, and began to look into other careers, such as Medical Laboratory Tech, and Hydrogeologist. I had the next year and a half planned out to get into the hydrogeologist program which would involve calculus (ugh). 
Then, imagine my surprise three days into the quarter when the admissions office called me and said there was an opening into the RN program...and would I like the position. Right then and there, I became a nursing student. 
What I did not know would be coming. Stay tuned for further memories of the two years it took to crawl from the belly of a monster.
