Finally

On February 7, 2011, I took the test that would start me on my road to nursing, my nursing school entrance exam. My brain was so fried from the information thrown at me in that three hour time frame that I couldn't even think. The results have been in for almost a week but I am too scared to check them.
The following day I took my CNA exam after 3 weeks of class. I got a 93% on it. I have finally done it. I am CERTIFIED!!! That may not mean a lot to some of you but to me it is the greatest feeling. You see, I finished High School in 1995. In the 15 1/2 years since my graduation I have been in construction, tele-marketing, tech support, fast food, and sales. Never have I been very marketable at any of them. Now I finally have something that makes me stand out a little. It is the bottom of the totem pole in the way of nursing but it is a start. My search for a career is over. I am in Nursing.
