As a full-time nursing student, full-time mother of two young boys, and 30-hr a week worker... It's pretty obvious that I don't get out much. When I heard about the travel trip to New Orleans, I thought, "Oh! How fun would it be to go back down south and with Jessica and Nicole!" (I had already assumed that my friends were also going.) Though the extra expenses caused minor stress, I think that the experience will be more than worth it. I cannot wait to see New Orleans through a totally different eye from prior visits. I am excited to learn about the city's history and culture. I look forward to hearing the music in the streets and seeing the performers. I can't wait to soak in the warmer temperatures, see all of the crazy people, the beautiful sights, and spend an entire 7 days without trying to reason with a toddler. (Okay, okay - I know I'm going to miss that.)
After seeing the trip's itinerary, I'll admit I was a little bit overwhelmed. When I originally signed up for the course, I was thinking it was a week long vacation without kids. Now that I've snapped back into reality, I am very excited for everything that Colleen has planned. I think that the trip will be packed-full of unique learning experiences and I look forward to taking it all in. I am impressed with the thought and organization of this whole thing - As someone who likes to have a plan, this eases the mind.
