   jennysjewels replied to jennysjewels's topic in General Students

   Wow! What did you pass out from??? Actually, I could see something like that happening... us "stressed out" students often skip lunch, stay up late studying (or partying, or chasing "monsters" out of a 3 year olds closet!!) and on top of that feel ne...

   jennysjewels replied to jennysjewels's topic in General Students

   Thanks for the great advice! I think a "walk through" is a wonderful idea! My original thought was that the first day I would just try to stick with a fellow student - but I don't know if that's possible. I appreciate your honesty, nurse2bSandy, I k...

8. Bathing - scared to death!
