I have always had a plan. From the very beginning. When i was really little it was, "I'm going to be a big girl and go to kindergarten!" Then as i got older and went to kindergarten, that's right, time for a new goal. "I'm going to be a big girl and go to elementry school!" Elementry came, and i made the decision that I would graduate from elementry school one day...It might be tough, but I was determined! I eventually made it to 6th grade, you know, the big dogs at my school. I realized, i'm on top of the world! I needed to make a new goal, If I had made it through elementry school, I could do anything!
So I decided that i would make a big goal this time. A goal I had always had in my mind. From the very beginning I knew I was supposed to plan to graduate high school. I set my sights on that. Through junior high I made it through by motivating myself by saying, you have to get to high school so you can achieve your goal. I got to high school, and suffered through it, finding any reason possible to sluff any class. I was good at that ;) Eventually, graduation rolled around. Yes, that's right, I got to walk....I know, right?!
The next goal was college. I applied to BYU-Idaho and here I am. I know i want to be a nurse. That is one thing I know for sure. I am stuck though. I applied to BYU-Idaho's nursing program, knowing before hand that I most likely(99% sure) I wouldn't be accepted tot he program. I wont know for sure until June what the final decision was.
I now need to form an alternate plan. I'm looking at colleges all over the place. nursing is so hard to get into. Waiting lists for nursing programs are ridiculously long. Basically if you don't have a 4.0 and your CNA, you wont even be considered. My new goal is to finish up my anat and phys classes and get my CNA this summer. It is going to be one heck of a load. I need to take Anat and phys, college algebra, possibly Chemistry, Book of mormon, and maybe a humanities course. Plus the CNA program, which is 2 days a week, plus clinicals. I'm going to have no life outside of school.
I'm considereing applying to Provo college for their 2 year RN program. Also i'm thinking about gonig to EITC and getting my LPN and then doing my associate RN there too. I hate not knowing what i will be doing in the near future. I hate waiting on colleges to tell you whether or not they "Want you" or not. I wanna marry a doctor and quit school :D

Oh, honey, marry the doctor! HA HA!! You sound so overwhelmed. I met with the nursing chair and got some great info. we should talk. Or, maybe, you should skip nursing school and go on to medical school yourself.
You can do it!!!!!! I love your bright cheery polka dots!
you will be just fine! i'm gonna laugh when you get accepted to BYU-I nursing program. haha. you'll make it no matter what route you take. even the doctor idea isn't a bad one...haha. its what i'm feeling like about now. at least you know what you want to do...i don't even know that!!!

Okay, I just have to say that you would be the cutest nurse EVER.
I would totally fake sick just to come to the hospital and be your patient.
