It's over, now what??

So for the last couple of years I've been taking prerequisite and supporting courses in hopes of getting into nursing school here in North Texas. Now if your from here and in my similar situation you know that getting into school here is TOUGH! I'm so sick of people saying "Well...there are so many different school to choose from." Yeah maybe back when you applied but now days these crazy institutions are so competitive you basically need a 4.0, insanity! So I've finished my courses and took the Hesi (entrance) exam on Saturday, and I passed WOOOOHOOOOO!!! Now wish I had passed in the 90th percentile which I did not but that's ok because I know what to expect and think I'll rock it next time. I'm also retaking  summer course in hopes to up my GPA a bit more but when all that's said and done, then what? I'm applying for school but even if I get accepted I have half a semester of nothing, NOTHING? What will I do? I'm so used to pulling my hair out and studying for something...anything! Really trying to just relish the thought of no deadlines, research papers or praying I don't run out of disposable gloves for lab class. Well guess I should just sit back and enjoy these kids of mine while I'm nice and sane because before long Dr. Stressed Jekyll will come out again. Yes, that's what I will do, that and make menu plans and figure out a way to live even more frugal because I'll have to pay for college soon, ugh tuition stinks!
