i cannot believe in a matter of 5 minutes my life took an unexpected turn. i received a call at 6:45am asking whether or not i was going to accept or decline my admission into nursing school . . . hmmmmm let me think, are you kidding me? of course not! i'll be there JANUARY 11th!!!
praise the lord: the path to the career of my dreams is heading in the perfect direction. i am going to north carolina to get my nursing degree. i am still in disbelief.
in addition to all my excitement i have an overwhelming sense of how hard and strenuous this is going to be, in addition to the fact i have to go back to being a full time student . . . oh, and did i mention i've never been there? yep, i guess i am a little more than nervous.
i am going to chapel hill in a week and a half for orientation so hopefully i gain some perspective before i officially drive all that way: i hope i don't get lost, i hope that raleigh (the city i fly in to) is not that intimidating of a city, and i hope the freeways aren't like san franciscon or l.a. and i hope i don't fail miserably, i want to flourish . . .
thank you to all who supported me . . . i felt many people were pulling for me, i think that is why i got in :)

ReplyDeleteAndrea, it soooooo GREAT!!! You know how "bitter yet sweet" ;)))) it is for us to know you got in. We are PROUD of you, and yet SAD because you are leaving...
