Change of plans...

Hello my loyal blog readers...I hope you are all doing well and enjoying the summer!! I just wanted to let you all know about a change of plans with my upcoming job. I was recently offered a position to attend training to become an OR (operating room) nurse, with guaranteed full time work after that. It is fully paid for and I'm paid to take the course, with the understanding that I will commit 2 years to work after the course is over. So....I took it! Which means, I'm heading back to school for 2 months starting July 3rd and then I'll start at a different hospital, but still part of the Niagara Health System. I'm super excited about this, as it is an amazing opportunity that doesn't happen everyday! I would be working Mon-Fri, days, which is what I've always wanted, but thought it would take me a few years to get there.

So...those are my new plans...I was only given 1 day to make this quick decision, but I know it's the right one and feel 100% at peace about it.

Finally!!!

So, after a long and tiring 8 hour day of writing my exam...it is finally over!! I feel great! The exam was ok. I think...it was multiple choice and short answer, so you never really know with those types of exams, but I've done what I can do, so now I just have to wait until I get my exam results. I'm just so happy to be done!
And so, tomorrow is my graduation, which is very exciting. I can't believe after four long years, my university career has come to an end. And, I will receive a Bachelor of Science in Nursing...crazy!! And then as soon as my graduation is over, I'm whisking off to Alberta to go to my cousin erica's wedding...which is also crazy but I'm super-excited to see all the fam again. Then after a few days in Alberta, I'm off to Winnipeg to see my friend Kristy. So, I have a nice little vacation before I start working.
