BIG news




I don't know how I failed to post anything on this when I found out my BIG news. But here you are...
I got Accepted to Duke University's School of Nursing!!!!!!! AHHHHHhhhhhh!!!!
I have been waiting for years for a school to finally say yes to me and it happened.

It's an accelerated program, which means that all applicants must have a previous bachelor's degree in something. Mine will be in Family Life from BYU and it will be recieved about 15 days before I start this program. Crazy!

The program goes from August 2010- Decemeber 2011. It's only 16 months and there are no breaks in between semesters except for little ones like Fall break, Thanksgiving, Christmas (which I would like to add is like 3.5 weeks long) and I even get a Spring break. It's the little things really that make me happy. See, I've never had a Spring Break because BYU doesn't have them because we get out early to mid April as it is. No need in pushing that back any further.

So my new home will be located somewhere between Durham and Chapel Hill, North Carolina. (We're still apartment hunting.) Plus, we are having to do it from 2,000 miles away which doesn't make it easy. I love the east coast and I'm glad that I get to move back. Plus, NC is only about a 10 hour drive from my house in Florida so I should expect my parents more often than they visit out here... which might be a good or bad thing, haven't decided.

Plus, being in North Carolina means closer to a Publix- I will be making that 4 hour drive to the nearest Publix, don't think I won't! Also, there are Panera Bread's!!! The only place that I love to eat that I will be leaving in Utah is sadly In-N-Out but who knows they are in Utah now so it will only be a matter of time.

I'M GOING TO NURSING SCHOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks to all my roommates who have had to put up with my emotions every time a rejection came my way, or those that had to put up with my intense studying and constant nose in text books. Your patience has meant everything to me. Thank you from the depths of my heart!!

I'M GOING TO NURSING SCHOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
