I would tell myself to do more research on scholarships and grants because money is very tight and school is very expensive. I would remind myself how important going to college is for me and how if I had more help with money I would be able to enjoy school a little more so I wouldn't have to worry about getting loans. I would stress the fact that I am not receiving much help right now since my parents can not help me pay for my education, and the school is offering me loans that barely pay my tuition. I would make sure that I understand the different kinds of loans and how difficult it is going to be paying those off in the future. Overall, I would help myself realize that I need scholarships and grants more than anything because I love school and I want to be able to do my best without worrying about my financial burdens, and without having my parents wonder how they will get me through college.

In this case, I would tell myself to invest my time in registering earlier for UNT, for I had been registering for TCU and hadn't had enough money.

Patients and family depend greatly on the hands of nurses, for this reason being a nurse will be a marvelous way to contribute as an active citizen. I am sure I can contribute deeply to exercise in a positive way the strong influence that nurses’ care has in the faster recuperation of patients. After receive my degree as Registered Nurse, I will be dedicated to get my bachelor and master degree. I want to become a well prepared health professional. I am aware of the high demanding of this career, but I decided to dedicate my professional life to become the best nurse that I can possibly be. For this reason, I will deeply appreciate all the help I can receive in this regard. One of my biggest dreams is to become a volunteer as a health professional in different areas needed for society. I have been able to take care of sick ones, depressed, and broken souls. For me be a nurse, it is like be a mother, but of the children of someone else. I will demonstrate my commitment in my career as a nurse for the rest of my life. Help me to fulfill this dream!

To chill out and just relax. Most people are more ready for college than they realize.

If I had the chance to go back in time, and if I could advise myself, I definitely would say the following: take advantage of the open house that colleges offer and visit as many different colleges as you can; also engage in approaching students that already are enrolled there and talk to them. This will give you a better understanding what the differences are between colleges. Come up with a list of perhaps 5 key questions to ask, and then compare them later. Make four of those questions yes/no, and one open ended question. Read the internet page of the college and be bold: make a phone call to the advisor there and test the climate – are they friendly and helpful? Request college information. This can help to educate and make a better decision in which college to choose as well as help with transitioning to the college.

The most important thing I can tell you is to stay focused. I know that you want to slack off and enjoy this year, senioritis kills. No, but seriouly this year for you is a beginning not an ending. You are about to embark on the journey of a lifetime. The things you do or don't do right now will determine the foundation you have for your future. So remember to study hard, keep your grades up, and apply for lots of scholarships.

The advise I would give my self is to never give up no matter how hard it may seem. When you think that you can not handle the pressure anymore please remember that the first semester is the hardest. Once you are past that semester you will have study habbits down and you will know how to balance your school work and a social life.

I had always thought that becoming a nurse was what I wanted to do in my life. After all, I have always loved helping out others and my family has always pushed me into becoming one. But were those reasons enough? This was a decision that would decide what I would be for the rest of my life. But going into college, I learned differently. I learned that doing something you enjoy is important in your life, because without that passion the motivation will not come. You cannot do something whole-heartedly without that drive within you. You are not able to do your best, give your all and put 100{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} into something unless you enjoy what you are doing. Your parents cannot tell you what to do with your life, your teacher cannot tell you what major you should take, your friends cannot tell you what career to pursue, but only you can answer all of that. Because only you are able to know and find out what you truly want to do with your life. I advice all high school students to find that passion, don't ever settled for anything less.

Being young, naïve, and confused is a period of life that everyone experiences at the end of their teenage years breaking into young adulthood. After counting down the days in agony until I could throw my graduation cap into the air, it never occurred to me what I would do the day after. If I would have had the insight that only years of life experience can afford someone back then, I most likely would have been past a master’s program in a stable job by now. Though, I did not know the impact I wanted to have on the world until very recently, I could have shared with a younger me the values of time management, determination, and the ability to put in hard work regardless of a visible payout, as hard work is its own reward. Impressing upon that hopeful teenager, I would instill in her the idea that the importance of putting one’s nose to the grindstone is invaluable. I spent too many years flitting about, unsure of my future and convincing myself that there was always next year. Now, at the age of 25, I realize those years have come to fruition.
