A different kind of adventure

As some of my loyal readers may know, I have been taking classes over the summer and fall semester to prepare for starting Nursing school. I got accepted to start classes in January, which will be the start of a new adventure in my life. Having all ready been to college once, I have an idea of what is ahead of me, but this time it's different. This time I think this is actually what I want to do for a career, and this time I have a lot more responsibility in my life.

I really surprised myself with my first 3 pre-requisites by scoring an A in two, and hopefully the third (I'll let you know next week). For some reason I feel like I need to pay a lot more attention than when I was 18 and just going to college because that's what everyone did when they got out of High School. This time I feel like I actually need to apply myself as much as I can, but the irony is the fact that I have a LOT less time than before.

I remember telling someone that if I ever went back to school, I would be a better student the second time around, so we'll see if that theory holds true. I'm excited about next semester, and I hope all goes well. For now, I'm going to enjoy a break for a few weeks.
