So I suppose I can give you guys some more information regarding my major change since a lot of people who read this will be family and whatnot. Anyway... you might be thinking why in the world I chose nursing over communications, being that the two are very different. A lot of people didn't know that I wanted to be a nurse in high school. I actually took the necessary classes and became CNA certified, but when I was going through my rebellious phase I sort of pushed the thought aside, casting my inability to do math and science as sort of the catalyst to not do the work. I never really applied myself in high school; I never tapped that hidden potential that parents and teachers are always going on and on about. When I finally broke that barrier, turns out, I'm pretty damn fascinated with Science and will work my butt off to do something with Math. The shaky feeling I get when I think about what I have to do though is really scary. The requirements to get into Boise State's nursing program are really daunting. Of course there is a GPA requirement, and of course you have to have a 3.5 or better in Math, Chemistry, and Anatomy and Physiology. The three hardest classes in that specific program, and all things I don't know that I will be good at. I do recognize that A&P is mostly just memorization, which I shouldn't have an issue with because I did so well with memorization in high school for speech and debate. But the math and chemistry is really scary. I am going to utilize everything that the campus offers in order to get through it. I am aiming for a 4.0 in all of the classes so that I don’t have to even worry about my stance in the program. This is truly what I want, I always have, and it just took some time to open my eyes.
