It's Five o'clock Somewhere

Say Hello to the class of 2008!!!! Going into our third semester of nursing school we were all very excited to finally catch a break and have a little bit of fun... boy did we ever have a rude awakening. This semester was anything but fun and easy. We lost several very close to us, studied harder than we ever have, spent many sleepless nights and cranky days together, but together we pulled one another through!!!! Nursing school has been an experience of a lifetime. And not one I ever want to repeatI have made some amazing friends! We have laughed together, cried together and learned the unimaginable about one another. We have been very lucky. Our class is incredibly close. I can't imagine going through the hell that we do without the support of one another. Many classes become competative towards one another at the end... Instead we help pull one another through

We are all more than willing to go out
of our way to help one another. At
our very first orientation they made
us turn and introduce ourselves to
everyone around us. Then they said
this will be your replacement family
until you are finished. I didn't believe
them, but the truth of the matter is
they have become my family away
from my family!!!!!!


Mikie came out to celebrate with us!!! I am so lucky to have such a supportive husband!!!!! He never
loses his cool when I have to study nor does he complain that the house is filthy and the laundry is never done. He comes home after a long day and is more than willing to cook dinner if I got something out....and if I didn't he never complains it is grilled cheese again!!!! I don't think I could handle this without him. He deserved to party every bit as much as I did. Thanks for Always being there babe I couldn't do this without you!!!!
