Remember that time?

Remember that time my dream came true?

And I got into the nursing program at BYU.

Graduation is right around the corner. Today is my last day of classes. It's kind of absurd. I'm not sure how this happened. I remember starting the nursing program like it was yesterday and now I'm about to graduate with a Bachelor's of Science in Nursing!

Wow.

Remember that time my dream came true again?

And I got a job at Primary Children's Medical Center!

I've wanted to work at Primary's since before I started nursing school. I had the awesome opportunity to do my capstone on the pediatric intensive care unit at Primary's. And I was made aware very quickly how much I love pediatric nursing and how badly I really did want to work at Primary's. There is just something about that place. I absolutely love it up there!

I applied for a job in the Float Pool at Primary's a few weeks ago. I wanted this job so bad. It's perfect for me. Float Pool nurses work on every unit in the hospital; I love the change in that.

And last week I got a call telling me they wanted to offer me the job!! I freaked out.

I can hardly believe it's actually real. I have to remind myself all the time that I actually got a job. And a job that I LOVE. MY DREAM JOB!

I'm so incredibly blessed. Only three people in my class of sixty have jobs. The job market is just so difficult right now for nurses. And I got my dream job! It's just incredible to me and unbelievable.

Remember that time my dream came true?

Yeah. That was pretty cool.
