Welcome to my blog!
My name is Corinne and I am a 28 year old nursing student at Peninsula College, in Washington. I applied to The Peninsula College School of Nursing in Spring of 2009 and was accepted into the Fall 2009 nursing program and like most students working through Nursing School it is a time really focus on being the best student and potential nurse you can be.
As with many adult students returning to college this is not my first career choice. I have worked as a book keeper and office assistant. However, I wanted to make a change after having my daughter (now two) and find something that I loved and could support myself doing. Nursing was a perfect fit.
In returning to school to complete my nursing prerequisites, I noticed several things. First there are an increasing number of adults returning to school and a lack of information available that addresses many of our needs. Second, Nursing school is extremely competitive and hard to get into even though the need for good nurses is through the roof. So this blog is primarily devoted to nursing students but may be helpful to any student really. Occasionally I throw in tidbits about politics and nutrition.
I love feedback so please comment often, and if you ever have questions, let me know I am always looking for new topics to post about.
Thank you for reading,
Corinne
