Nursing School

I pretty much already made up my mind about going to nursing school. But there's a few obstacles I have. First of all, I found out we have to dissect a pig or a cat. I've been watching movies on YouTube, and it's not as gross as I thought it was. But still, it's an animal and I can't stop to think about the animal when it was still alive. Was it killed for this purpose? Or already dead? Or is it a cat that has been euthanized because there was no more room at the shelter? IMO that is so wrong. But anyways, does it feel me poking and cutting in its body? Also, I have this thing, called "respect for the death" and I don't think it's really appropriate to play with dead people or animals.
If this is just a one time thing, I think I can put myself thru it. After all, when you have a dream or a goal, you make some sacrifices and you work thru the hard parts right?

I keep having the thought if nursing is really something for me. But when I look at all the other academics, nothing really interests me as much. Yea, I could go for photography. But with the economy being this bad, who can still afford a photographer? I need some guarantee.

Another obstacle I have is my husband who wants to start nursing school as well. He wants me to go to school, but for some reason he thinks that his education is more important than mine? I guess because I'm the main caretaker of our children and he already works full time. But still, I really feel I should take this oppurtinity, now that I still qualify for gov grants. It's going to be a hectic 2-3 years, but once we both graduate, we will have so many more opportunities in life: pay off debt, travel, get a house, afford private school and after school sport and art activities for our kids. Ideally my husband and I should work the same shift, when they are both at school so we can still have plenty of quality time. And I would prefer to work PT, or even stay at home, but have the option to get a good paying job whenever I need to.
I don't want to be doing too much and don't have any time to study, but if I don't go to college now, I may never be able to go.

I have to go sign up for classes today. We'll see what happens...
