I am hoping to get work as an EN in a sexual health/family planning kind of location as soon as I finish this year but will honestly be ecstatic to have partially reached my lifetime goal of being a nurse no matter where I am!! Look fwd to chatting to you all and sharing experiences.

Take care

Hi Mez,

Great to see another Aussie on here :hatparty:

Just one warning from one student to another........this website is highly addictive, when you are at your computer and are meant to be studing.....somehow this website has 'popped up' on your screen and next thing that you know, it is hours later, no studying has gotten done, but you have caught up on the threads that interest you and have learnt lots

Or maybe thats just me

2nd year RN student (I passed my 1st year :hatparty: )

Thanks Grace for that, I was just trying to work out when I could work around Uni. Can't believe I'm finally flying out tomorrow afternoon. Tonight I'm going on a farewell cruise on the harbour. This week has been a lot of goodbyes and everytime I went anywhere I thought this is the last time I'll.... for a while at least.
Welcome Mez and congratulations Tina on passing your first year

Has anyone been watching the Commonweath Games? There has been some great moments of sport and mateship by all the countries.

Certainly have Ausnurse! Agree, some great sporting moments. The most 'tragic' moment was when our male runner, in the 1500 I think it was, fell as a result of being knocked from behind by the person behind him who fell! I can't recall our boys name just now, but he was the favourite to win that race! Yet, his attitude afterwards was inspiring! He turned something negative into a positive!
Can't say I was overly impressed with the closing ceremony last night though. I reckon India in 2010 will be COLOURFUL!
