   dmr71 replied to wellhereiam's topic in General Students

   Chevyv, Wow! I'm so glad your test went well...and I totally agree w/you about our loved ones who have passed, they are still pulling for us. I haven't had a ton of dreams about my mom, but when I do, even if they are just random..it's a great feel...

   The other night I had a dream that I was at my graduation from Nursing School (I start my 1st semester on 9/2). The dream overall was stressful, going here and there and thinking I was going to be late etc...Then when I went to take my seat in the b...

   I was in Borders (in the isle with all of the health books of course) when a girl asked if I was a nurse. I told her that I was starting school in Sept and she told me she was starting her 2nd yr of a BSN program (at an Ivy League school). When I a...

    Thanks to all who responded..it was my 1st post . And it seems I am not the only one in the dark til school starts. And for those of you who had orientation ahead of time, it didn't seem overly helpful. Basically, we're in for it & really don...

12. Any one else not having orientation prior to starting classes?

    Unfortunately, my school does not hold its orientation until the 1st day of class. I was kinda looking forward to getting info prior to class to give me time to digest it and get all my ducks in a row. Having 3 kids, it would be nice to know the ac...
