[NPInfo] DNP Program - University of Tennessee

Tue Apr 8 19:37:11 PDT 2008

Well, after 20 months of working full-time (over 40 hours/wk), changing jobs
mid-stream, moving to a new home, undergoing two training trips to Seattle
for job training, and training for five 1/2 marathons and a full marathon
last year, all while doing this DNP program and maintaining something like a
3.98 GPA, I can attest to the fact that it IS do-able... certainly NOT fun
and definitely NOT easy, but do-able. Of course, I did end up having a
melt-down last year and broke up with my wonderful boyfriend for 3 months
while I screamed that I didn't have time to breath and needed time alone to
catch up on papers that needed to get done...<sigh>. During that 3 months
break is when I decided to change jobs and move so I really didn't get much
of a break at all. But all that is almost behind me. Now, I'm off to law
school next... or beauty school... just can't decide......... LOL
