School's out for SUMMA!!

Yippee!  I am done with my first semester of nursing school at CSI!  I thought it would never come.  I can honestly say I learned the most about how to study than any other semester.  I really struggled with tests at the beginning but my last two tests I got a 94 (the highest grade on that test) and an 84 on my final.  I was so excited.  I know I couldn't have done it without the Lord and the great people in my life.  I learned so much about people.  I love how diverse my nursing class is.   They come from all over the world.  I love how hard working they all are.  I am now the youngest person in the program so I have so much to learn from all of them.  I learned a lot about myself.  I learned why I believe what I believe a lot more because I wasn't constantly surrounded by everyone who believes the exact same things I do.  It was challenging but so good for me.  I'm excited to see what this summer brings me.  I'm excited to work for Miller's research and my friend Macy and I are teaching dance lessons!  Life is so great.  Here's a picture of my clinical group.  People say 1st and 3rd semesters are the hardest.  I've learned that caring in nursing is having the knowledge to keep people safe.  It's a work in progress every day.  Bring it on!
