CNA Class!

....Why am I in school again? This was the first thought that came to my mind when I woke up this morning. Today was the beginning of my summer CNA classes.

Four hours long, one teacher, and a lot of information. It's going to be a challenge, but challenge is fun! Can't imagine a life without challenges? My teacher has been working in health care for 36 years and has had a lot of training. It's pretty cool! She's honest and very up front with how dangerous of a field this is.

She's already giving us advice of how to defend ourselves, "learn how to duck" she says.

Yep, this is going to be an adventure! We are required to do 40+ hours of clinical work outside of the classroom. We have to recieve above 80% on our exams and each student gives a 15 min. presentation for the class. (ahh!) The coolest part is, for our dress code in class she wants us to look professional. Now, when I heard that I thought, "no, please don't make us wear dresses or skirts!" Instead she says, come to class in scrubs!

Pretty awesome, because scrubs are practically the most comfortable clothing around, besides pajamas! Lol
All in all, there are around 20 students in my class. Half of them are married or have children. But they are a fun group of people! I think it's going to be a good experience. Thank you to all who are praying! It is greatly appreciated!
