Cleared the first hurdle......

Most of my day is spent in the Library either doing my homework, or upstairs in the tutoring center.... doing my homework. After a long day of homework and class. I got home to check my email and read that my Chemistry Exam results were in. I went online to the portal (This is so different than it was back in the day.). Looked for my code number and looked for my score. I found it...... 77.5. ARGH!! I groaned to myself. I thought for sure that I did well on the test. I looked closer at all the results and realized that a lot of people did worse than I did. There were a lot of 60's and even 50's type scores. Well... if they graded on a curve maybe I didn't do so bad. Then I looked at the bottom of the list and saw what the total possible score was: 75. What!! I actually Aced the test AND got the extra credit on top of it all!!! YES!! The closest score behind me was a 77. How awesome is that!!!

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.
