But, I do feel happy for this good start; it makes me feel like I’m gonna be fine, and that my usual study habits will serve me as well in nursing school as they did in my prereqs. Partly this is because I spent quite a bit of time Friday mapping out school life, meal plans, blogging plans, exercise, and so on.
