First Semester Nursing School...FINISHED!

I am happy to report that I survived the first semester of nursing school. Tests were hard, classes were long, and clinicals were early. This semester took a lot of adjusting. I was not used to sitting in class for 8 hours, or taking a 100 question test with NCLEX style questions.  The beginning of the semester was rough. The tests felt like they were impossible.  The next few weeks were difficult because I had no clue how to take notes in class or study for the test. The second round of tests were better, and by the end of the semester things were much better. I ended the semester with one B and the rest were A's. I can't complain much about that.
I am so thankful that I am able to be in nursing school. I have been blessed with a group of friends I can trust to divide up a study guide and study together. We successfully made it though the first semester and I am excited about the last two! We are going to make it!!!
