After all the hard work you've put in to get that acceptance letter, you finally have gotten it. And here is how you'll react.
1. Extreme excitement.
You've been painfully waiting for this day for years, you know that letters are going out soon, and finally you get yours. You rip into in to find the golden word "Congratulations," you scream, and you do your happiest of happy dances.
2. Extreme confusion.
Next you read the rest of the letter and you now have to figure out how to register for all of your classes, get your scrubs, stethoscope, blood pressure cuff, penlight, the list goes on and on.
3. Shock
You cant believe your dream is finally becoming a reality and its happy and scary all at the same time.
4. Realization that Nursing School is EXPENSIVE.
From physicals to text books, student nurses have a lot of responsibilities. And every responsibility has a price tag, nursing school can get expensive but don't let it discourage you! If God wants it to happen, it'll happen!
5. Understanding
You finally realize that all of your hard work has paid off and you ARE a student nurse and you WILL be responsible for saving peoples life in just a short amount of time.But you're still a little nervous.
6. Did I mention extreme excitement?
As you've finished ordering all of your new nursing things and signing up for classes, you celebrate again because YOU'RE GONNA BE A NURSE!!!
7. Stress about future stress.
Unfortunately now you've started thinking about how busy you'll be and how you'll need to spend all of your waking hours studying. So you start to stress about how you will be stressed those days.
8. Denial
Then you think the stress might overcome so you start to think you cant do it.
9. Acceptance
But don't you worry cause you accept what is to come and you prepare yourself for the awesome years ahead to get your degree and start working officially!
10. Extreme excitement again.
And of course you finally have just let yourself enjoy the high of finally getting in. Its gonna be a blast!
