Hey everyone,a little about me:
I have been rummaging this site for a few months now and am finally in nursing school. We just hit the 2nd week mark and needless to say, I am feeling disillusioned. I am 25 and consider myself a quiet, intellectual and interesting person. I come from a background in EMS and was taught from the medical model.
The girls in my class are VERY loud, talk over the instructors (who have infinitely more experience), and have righteously joined little "cliques". I am starting to feel isolated because i dont have one. I just feel that I am different from everyone else. Everybody complains about how "hard" the readings are and how so and so teacher got an attitude with them. I, on the other hand find the workload rudimentary in nature and not difficult at all. I don't throw this in people's faces and stay quiet most of the time. I also try to help some people who are struggling.
So my question is:
Should I try to fit in or not?
Thanks for all your replies :)
