This Thing Called Life

     I can hardly contain my excitement since my LPN pinning ceremony is only 3 days away! We had mock interviews this past Thursday with potential employers and I ended up getting an offer for a second interview which will be on September 1st. They own multiple clinics and work with different positions but the best part is the offer is for a position Monday through Friday, no weekends! After my pinning ceremony I plan on taking a week off to relax and really take in the beginning of my healthcare career journey. I still cannot believe this moment is almost here. I've worked really hard to make it through this program and it was all worth it.

     It seems like yesterday the countdown on my phone for my LPN pinning ceremony said 247 days. We are down to just 14! Today in class we filled out the application for the NCLEX-PN exam and payed for that portion. Basically all we do in this class is take a lot of Kaplan tests and prepare for our role as a nurse and prepare to take the NCLEX. I plan on using Kaplan and the pn mastery app as well. The goal is to obviously pass the NCLEX on the first try. No one plans on or wants to retake it multiple times. I'm mailing my invitations for the ceremony tomorrow. I don't have many people coming for me, but the ones that are coming are the ones that matter most to me and that is what counts.
