True Life: I'm a NURSE.

So I promised an "I PASSED THE NCLEX" post and here it is! On October 13th, I passed my NCLEX, which is the exam that makes me an official Registered Nurse. Since then I've started my new job at Butterworth Hospital on an oncology unit and I'm working full time as a registered nurse. It seems unreal that these past five years of school are over and that nursing school is behind me now. All of the doubts and fears and tears and work to get here all suddenly seem worth it. It was definitely a long road, but now that I'm here it doesn't seem to matter how hard it was to get here. I'm so happy with my job and with how much I am learning everyday. I feel more like a nurse all the time and I love it :)

It's kind of sad for me to say that this post officially concludes Lindsay's Nursing School Adventure. Thanks for coming along for the ride! I know it wasn't always as exciting as I promised it would be, but I enjoyed writing it. I hope my real life nursing adventure will be even more exciting :)
