Keep Calm and Carry On. Or have an anxiety attack :)

Standard

First and foremost, I want all NP students to know about this website: http://www.enpnetwork.com. It’s about $29 for a 90 day access. It allows you to see preceptors in your area that are willing to take students. I recently signed up this week and emailed a prospective preceptor in a clinic for low-income individuals. Besides preceptors, it’s a pretty cool way to interact with nursing organizations.

And that’s why I’m writing this short & sweet blog post…

I got a response within 2 days. And I’m supposed to call her today after six….

And I suddenly can’t remember what my name is. Much less what I’m supposed to say to entice her to take me on as a student this September/October.

It’s a 1,000 times worse than a job interview.

Anyways, I guess the worse that could happen is that she might say “Shannon, you’re crazy. I don’t think this is going to work out.” And then I could go on my merry way and sleep at night without the feeling of impending doom while waiting to make a phone call :)

A later post will follow after the phone call… I’m curious to see what I’m going to write in that post…
