A new beginning....

Welcome. This is the start of my new journey. I am not a nurse, but I do live in the Northwest. I've recently moved back to the great city of Portland OR. from the crowded city of Los Angeles CA. I was one of those dreamers that ran out of dream steam. I also started to run out of cash. In LA I worked as a Nursing Assistant (CNA) to help pay the bills while also doing the occasional Background job. However, doing background was never really the dream. An opportunity came up for me to move back home and actually try to be an actual Registered Nurse. So.... here I go. I'm currently enrolled in a local community college taking pre-requisite classes that are needed to be accepted in the Nursing program. I'm taking Chemistry, Biology, and Intermediate Algebra. I know... it sounds crazy. It is considering that I haven't been in school taking "REAL" classes for (it seems like) forever!!! The acting classes don't count.
I just took my first Chemistry Exam this morning.... we shall see how I do.

  1. At least you can say that you tried to pursue your dreams. Some people are scared at the fear of failure. Kudos for giving an effort.

  2. How few of us, sadly, can say we live without regrets? Not Will! He follows his bliss.
