Just wrote my pre-admission test for my Practical Nursing program for Centennial College. The woman that spoke on the phone with me had said that if I passed this test with a certain percentage, I would automatically receive an offer of admission for my programs. Of course Practical Nursing was not the only program I applied to for Centennial; I also had applied for Secretarial Administrations and Developmental Services Worker. Anyways, back to what I was saying. I exceeded the percentage that they were hoping I was going to get. Finished with the highest mark out of all the people that wrote the test that day. I always seem to amaze myself. So for now, I can say I am going to accept Centennial's offer of admission for Practical Nursing when it arrives in the mail! Oh god, February 1st could not come any sooner. I've always dreamed of being a nurse, and now it's finally going to become a reality. It's also going to be a reality that I will be attending the school my boyfriend is graduating from this Spring!! It's going to feel great when I hear my kids say "my mom is a nurse, my dad is a mechanic; they both graduated from Centennial College. My dream is to study at Centennial College just like my parents". As for getting to the day I walk up on the stage at my convocation, I will be focused 100% no matter what. My eyes are on the prize and I'm going to work my ass off every single day with balancing school life, work life and my social life.
Not only did this just make my night (or the rest of this damn month in particular), I logged on to my stuview for George Brown College and have found out that my eligibility for their Practical Nursing program has been met! Meaning, my marks are to par and that I'm just waiting for my letter of acceptance to be mailed out. Oh Lord, it doesn't get any better than this. Not only am I one step closer to living my dream; even though if for some reason I don't make it to Centennial College, my back-up plan/last resort already has an offer sitting for me. All I need to get through is writing a pre-admission test for Practical Nursing at Humber College on the 23rd of February. After that's done, everything should be smooth sailing from there! Ahhh, I'm so happy, excited, ecstatic... everything related to the euphoria of happiness that you can name, I'm feeling that! All because of... school. Who would have thought that I'd ever say that? I'm just so glad I'm finally putting my life back in motion for the future. All I need now is a full time job until my school begins in September.
Boy is this a long post; kinda makes up for the half of the month that I haven't been blogging. Anyways, on a brighter note.. I've been working out constantly, drinking loads of water and watching what eat. Yep, one of my new year's resolution is to get my beautiful body that I once had back! It's been a whole month and I've been seeing some progress.
I guess 2013 is gonna be the year for me! It just started, but I honestly can't wait for everything to unfold so that I can make the next few years of my life the brightest ones ever.
Until next time blogspot, xo.
