I wanted to become a nurse to help people. To listen to people and make them feel cared about. While I was taking care of my mother for the last 10 years of her life. Many nurses noticed the care I gave to my mother and told me, "You should be a nurse, you would be a great nurse!" I like seeing the looks on patients faces, when they notice I am really listening to them and I remember how they like their coffee. I excelled in my classes. I was happy whenever I earned 100% on a test. I was also happy when I could help my classmates understand something. I am currently a CNA. In 5 years I hope to be able to go back to school and become and RN.
