Want to hear a scary story? Two words. Nursing school. No matter how you get there, how long it takes, or the detours you make on the road to the scrubs and long nights, nursing school is hard. The coursework is intense and the expectations are high. I mean can you expect anything less of a career that’s goal is patient care and you are in charge of hundreds of people on a daily basis. You are the difference between life and death in some cases. You will be the one to hold people’s hands as they cry, the one to provide the support of someone struggling alone. The bright smile to make a child’s day. It takes a lot to want to be a nurse, but here are some of the things that I have learned while on my way:

I believe 100 percent, that in the future our education will be modular. One that will give way into a lego-like combination of stackable credentials. That idea was sparked from Anant Agarwal the CEO of edX, so I want to give him props to the initial idea.

College Majors That Didn’t Exist 5 Years Ago

Building Your First Semester. Top Story - November 2018.

My School Journal
I'm not sure where to start with this journal. I suppose it would help to introduce myself, my name is Jay. Other names mentioned in this journal have been changed for privacy reasons. I was born the 12th of November in Honolulu, HI. I graduated as part of the Class of 2017 in Las Vegas, NV. I'm the first to graduate high school and the first to go to college right after, but I am the second oldest grandchild, and the oldest child of both my mom and dad. That's enough about me since you didn't come here for my life story, that will come at a later date though.
