It's almost the end of the semester and things are finally falling into place for me. The transition into nursing school is definately a cultural shock but I am slowly adapting. The girls and I are becoming more like sisters because of the classes we have with each other. I am grateful for them because I was able to have a supportive group of people that keeps encouraging me in stressful times. Besides these people, I feel that no one particulary has any interest in what I do in nursing so I am very greatful for them. Although we constantly help each other out in our studies, the competition is still there. Each person strives very hard to achieve the 4.0 gpa. I didn't realized how many high achievers we have in our class. I was so impressed with some's ability to stay on task. I feel so proud to be in nursing school yet, at the same time, I feel like I am the most unorganized among my classmates. At the beginning, I lacked the motivation to go on....but now, i am getting more excited with my carreer. I am grateful for such an amazing, kind, Christian instructor.
