I Am a Nurse Last August 23, 2012, I went to another town where my school in college was located. I was walking to the Business and Finance office when suddenly, I received a text message. I almost fainted upon reading it. I sat on a chair and read the message again. It was the message that I have been waiting for months already. It says that the result of the Nursing Licensure Examination, which I took last June 30 and July 1, is already released. It was said that out of 60,895, only 27,823 made it. I was so worried and nervous. I was thinking whether I belong to those who passed or to those who failed. My heart was beating like a drum and my hands were as cold as ice. I called my friend who sent the message and asked her if she passed, she said yes. My nervousness doubled. I asked her if she could look for my name on the list of successful takers. I was patiently waiting when suddenly she shouted and said that my name was on the list. After hearing it, I jumped, laughed, and thanked God for such a wonderful and life-changing blessing. My heart was filled with overflowing joy and relief at that time. Until now, I still can't fathom the thought that I am now a certified registered nurse here in the Philippines. Indeed, God will grant what your heart desires if you just believe. For everyone, keep the faith! :)))
