It will all be worth it

     This semester is over.  I can't believe I am so close to being an RN.  My hope at the beginning of the semester was just to pass.  We have to get an average test score of 78% or higher, and I have heard so many horror stories about our Professor, Dr Chew.  I took the first test just praying for a passing score.  And, with a lot of studying and hard work, I passed.  Now I know that Dr Chew isn't so scary (in fact she is an amazing teacher that expects a lot out of us and cares so much about our success).  She has taught me so much about nursing, given me confidence and helped me trust my skills and knowledge. 

     Now, here I am.  I managed to get an A in Nursing III and Pharmacology.  There may have been a few set backs learning experiences along the way, but I earned those grades with sweat, tears and a few popcorn dinners.  I have earned an A in all of my Nursing classes.  I don't say this to boast, but to let you know how much you guys help me with my success.  A word of encouragement ( a funny picture on facebook or a word of support on my blog) always seems to come when I need it most.  Some nights it takes all I have to study after a long day at work.  Sometimes, I get so stressed out that I cry over the most trivial things (poor Dave doesn't know what to say half the time).  You, my friends and family deserve to share in my success--WE made it! 

Just one more semester to go! 

 
Sometimes I wish I could send a copy of my transcripts to SUU, but for the most part I know I am where I need to be.  And, I would like to think that I have moved so far beyond that.  I am still amazed that I will be Angie Mack, RN!  And, you all can celebrate that.  Thank you all for believing in me, supporting me.......for just being there rooting in my corner.
