In April 2011, I made the hardest and best decision of my life. I had a preventative bilateral mastectomy in order to manage my extremely high breast cancer risk. Now, follow me as I try to navigate nursing school..and well not much else because I'm so busy with that. But no matter how much else I can fit in, one thing is certain- life goes on!

Holding pattern

Well this is supposed to be my glorious break from school. It has been pretty glorious I can tell you that :) However, since I have to (sadly) repeat the class I took last semester. I have to wait to see if the Dean will let me in for the Fall or if I have to wait until Spring. AND the financial aid office is still working up my file. Which should've been done WEEKS ago... AND since I do have to repeat a class, it looks like I'm not enrolled in school at all since they deleted the classes I'd previously registered for. I do not like to be waiting on like 3 people to decide my fate for the Fall. I had decided with my advisor that I'd declare a minor and take THOSE classes in the Fall, should the Dean say she can't immediately place me back in the class. But all of this frustration makes me want to run the other way. Why do I pay boatloads of money to these people to make my life miserable???

On a more positive note, I've gotten to go to Woodruff Fontaine more since I've been out of school and I always LOVE that. I went to a costume department for the local theater to look at Victorian dresses as possibles to use for our Haunted Happenings and other events going on that weekend in October. That's always fun. I swear I should quit nursing school and become a history major!

 I've been working more at work too. In the ER! It's insane and fantastic all at the same time. (Ok I must admit I had fantasies of working in the ER since ER was on TV) FOr now, I'm going to try to push school to the farthest back of my mind and concentrate on what I can do to relax during break. And worse comes to worse, I'll run away from home before I have to tell Mike or my parents I have to take a semester off.
