The Time Has Come

After my Lab Practical on Wednesday I was a free woman!

well...until today

I spent my 4 day weekend relaxing the best I could knowing I had a lot coming my way Monday

I could not even focus on studying for my final on Sunday

I kept checking and rechecking nursing forums and worrying like crazy

I did finally get to sleep around 3:00 AM

I woke up bright and early at 6:30 AM

I couldn't even imagine eating breakfast...but I did

I drove up to class and waited in the hall for 10 minutes for my final to begin

I checked one last time to see if the results were posted yet

nope

I make my way into the classroom and he begins to pass the exams out

I couldn't even imagine sitting down and taking a 100 question final at this point

there was too much going on in my head

I made it to question number 3 on the exam and the professor makes his way over to my desk and whispers

"You can leave if you want to"

oh my goodness...

I was shocked and walked quietly out of the classroom

I called my Mom to tell her how excited I was about getting out of my exam and she didn't pick up the phone!!!

I decided to check my application online again and low and behold...

I GOT IN!

I was about 3 steps out of the Biology building (walking off UTAs campus for the last time)

I was shaking, tearing up, and frantically dialing my Mom's number

I'm sure people around me thought I was crazy, BUT WHO CARES!!!?

I called my Mom two more times and no answer

I started running to my car and she called me back

I screamed I got in and the rest is history

I

AM

GOING

TO

BE

A

NURSE

!

The morning could not have gone better

We went to Joe T. Garcia's in Fort Worth for my celebratory lunch

I wasn't even hungry, but I got a little down.

We got home and I put the check in the mail and ordered my background check

It's official

I'm a Blue Devil

Can't stop me now
