LPN what!?!?

so i have now practically finished the LPN (licensed practical nurse) portion of my nursing program.  i just have to have my grades post and then take the 300 buck extremely intense state test!  little extremely nervous but i think everything will be fine!  the best part about finishing this portion of the program is the fact that i can start working as an LPN once i pass my boards/extreme state test!  this includes a new job title of a nurse with a couple dollar increase of raise.  i can work as a nurse with certain boundaries like i can't do IV stuff and i can't admit patients, etc.  i'll be working on the medical/surgical floor once this test is finished.  everything is based on this test and if i pass it!  i'm sure i will and everything will be just fine!  for my school in the LPN portion the pass rate is 90% or higher so that's good. 

anyway i just wanted everyone to know bc i am super excited and glad that i am now practically an LPN.      

the other exciting news is that my cousin Amy is leaving for a mission to NORWAY!  the exciting part of this news is that my ancestors are from norway!  my great-grandfather went on 3 missions to norway and is from norway.  Amy leaves on wednesday and i'm super excited for her.  good luck amy
