Hey, thanks for posting this, I love these things.
I filled one out too and posted it on my blog, and linked to yours. I googled for nursing blogs and yours was one of the first ones I found… i’ve been inspired to start my own! I still have to read through all of your archives, but I like knowing there are other nurse / nursing-student bloggers out there.
Good luck starting the new school year - I’m in the same boat!
