   hson15 replied to swirlies's topic in General Students

   Hey, don't be too hard to Swirlies. Not every day as a nursing student was a perfect day. It can be horrible, and everyone can look like a jerk sometimes. I met bad nurses/bad classmates/bad instructors too. You cannot even imagine how badly they ...
