A Very Brief History of Student Nurses' Life



So, how did I end up in Nursing School?

  1. Originally the plan was for an M.D.
  2. Half-way finnished Chemistry degree at the State College.
  3. Had no friends, no time to relax, was developing an ulcer.
  4. Quit School
  5. Got my Emergency Medical Technician-I license
  6. Worked as an Emergency Medical Technician for 3 years, driving ambulances and taking care of patients who called 911. Learned lots about medicine and life.
  7. Liked the field, but EMT's make crappy money.
  8. Then I stumbled into Nursing.
