getting back out there and back to school

14 Comments

Well after years of working menial jobs for not so great cash, I decided its time to do a course and get a job ill love. Well isnt that easier said then done. First deciding what course I decided on a diploma of nursing. Second the entrance exam which is a literacy and numeracy test. After failing miserably at the nu eracy my first attempt I decided on a tutor. Second attempt and I passed the numeracy not only did I pass but I got 35 out of 40. Well im in but who knew a course had dso many expenses other than the actual course fee. First there is a uniform yes a uniform then a nursing kit and books. As a single mum this will financially destroy me, but im still trying. Finally the first day of the course rolls around and this isnt going to be easy not only am I paying the books off so I wont have all at once which im now realising ix going to make things harder but choosing a course that starts at 3pm and finishes at 9pm wasn’t a bright idea. Oh well somehow ill get through this. Wish me luck that I can fit in study around a screaming 15mth old and a 4year old who has just discovered the art of making sandwiches lol

Division 2 nursing is extremely difficult to get into because of the demand. You did very well to get in and I admire your perseverance in going back for another try when others would have thrown in the towel. Keep us updated on your progress and best of luck!

Fantastic of you not to give up! Hang in there, it is not easy going back to study and with young children! Give yourself a huge pat in the back! There will be lots of tears too but just keep your eye on the prize! All the best!
