Looking Back

When I woke up this morning, I went straight for a walk to the post boxes and met the postwoman that delivered the mail. I opened the letter from the CLPNBC and found a beautiful 4 letter word = PASS. I’m so happy I could cry with joy! Oh what a great feeling! 13 months ago, I was sitting at the College of the Rockies gymn in Cranbrook, British Columbia, Canada along with hundreds of students for the 1st day school orientation. I wanted to become a Licensed Practical Nurse. 47 practical nursing students were aiming for the same. Exactly 405 days later, here I am in front of my computer blogging with a big smile. I have done it! I am officially licensed as a Practical Nurse! What a great day!!! Thank you God!

September 8, 2009 - Tuesday - This photo was taken 405 days ago. It was day 1 of the nursing course.
