Is this a precursor?

So Yesterday I called the nursing school that I am going to be attending to find out when the nursing program orientation is going to be. Now, I really wanted to know, 1. Because it feels wierd to be doing nothing during the summer and actually having time off, and 2. because I wanted to make sure I didn't miss it or won't be on vacation during the alloted orientation time. So, I call and ask the receptionist or whoever answers a nursing office phone. And this is what she said,
Me: " HI, I'm just calling to find out when the nursing orientation will be held."
Lady: "Do we have your email address?"
Me:"I believe so."
Lady: " Okay, well we'll send you an email letting you know."

WHAT?!?! Why all the secrecy? Really? I can't just can't get a roundabout date? Wierd. SO now I'm worried that this is how nursing school is going to be. I know that I basically sign my life over to them for the next two years but can I at least get a heads up about when I am going to be doing that?



Ok, so on another note, I watched the show,"HawthoRNe" last night on TNT. And I thought it was good, but will hopefully be great as the season goes along. My friend referred to me as "Jada" and I was flattered and would love to be that character, but I have to say that I will probably be more like the new nurse that cried everyday. At least till I really get comfortable in my job. But right now, I'm just concerned with passing my 8 hour CPR class and not re-killing my dummy a la Dwight Shrute.
