The leaves are turning!

Thank you everyone for the birthday wishes! They are most appreciated. So I am loving the Fall so far. More preciously, I am so enjoying the sunny, cool weather. I wish it could stay like this year round. Though it has been kind of cold this week,...

Another year older

I used to like birthdays, what kid doesn't eh. But as I grow older I don't think I like them so much anymore lol. Every one just brings me closer to 30 and that seems like such a scary thing for me.

Since the hubby's birthday is also in 3 days and mine is today, his parents are coming into town today to take us out to a combined birthday lunch. Should be pleasant.

Well that sadly is all that is interesting in my life right now, have a good weekend my poppets!

I love my iPhone

*dusts off page* Hey this thing still works! How about that. It has been a long time hasn’t it? I’ve missed you guys! Group hug! Or not. I might as well jump right back into things.

I passed my state boards! Huzzah! I am officially a nurse now, and a student no longer!!

I was very nervous the weekend after I took my NCLEX until I found out I passed. You have a total of 5 hours to take the test, which includes the test itself and the tutorial that goes along with it... I was done in 1 hour. It felt a little strange, my first thought was, holy crap I failed it miserably fast! But the proctor said that’s usually a good sign to be done quickly; it means you got a lot right. That made me feel a little better, but it was still nerve wracking. Thank goodness the lady was right though!

So now it is job-hunting time for me. Which is actually some scary stuff too. Since I still don’t feel like I’m experienced enough to be doing this on my own without my instructors there. Yikes.

And lastly, my Itachi fanaticism has awaked again for some reason, bear with me. It’s late now but I’ll try to visit everyone and see how you are doing tomorrow.

I've done it!

I just had to post and make the announcement:

Today I took my final exam.

Took our 2009 nursing class picture.

And picked up my cap and gown.

The nursing program is over, I'm a new grad!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dream the dream

I know most of you have seen Susan Boyle on Britain’s Got Talent, but I just couldn’t resist for those of you who may not have seen it. Even if you have, take the few minutes to watch, its one of the best feel good videos I’ve seen in a long time. It just goes to show that there really is more to people than what you first see. And she’s signing one of my most favorite songs ever. So watch and enjoy.
