Hello, This is my very first posting. I've been around for a few years. I am a three year hospital diploma RN who soon will have obtained my BSN (August). I will then take my Psych Certification test. I'm still dreaming 'big' and plan on entering the masters program for Advanced Practice Psychiatric Nursing. I still believe in the philosophy that you are as old as your age or as young as you feel (whatever turns your crank). I don't eat my 'young' but rather enjoy working with new or recently graduated nurses. They can teach me and I can teach them is my personal attitude. I made a promise to myself years ago that if I ever got like what we student nurses called the "old ones" in nursing, I'd hang up my cap. Well we don't wear caps anymore so I can't do that but I
love nursing more today than when I was a spanking new RN--2oots
