  1. How are you preparing?

    I also quit my job, used the summer to find quick, but nutritional meals, researched healthy snacks, tried to lose weight by implementing some type of daily physical activity, and worked on strengthening my faith. My husband and I also looked for way...

  3. The fear just hit me - help :(

    AWWW! I wish I knew you in person. Me myself, I honestly don't look at people like that, and I guess I think most other people don't either. What people think about you should not even be anything you worry about. I have seen many nurses who are prob...

  5. Are C's really the new A's in nursing school?

    Hmm. For me, a C is just not acceptable. I guess I just think I can do better. But, my situation is different from many in that I have no kids at home anymore, and a husband totally willing to fill in on household chores when I can't. I actually had ...

  10. Any web sites to purchase instead of rent e-textbooks?

    I used textbooks.com, but there is also half.com and Barnes and Noble. Oh, and Amazon. All of these places offer new and used books. I did a lot of shopping and got some good deals. Many were cheaper than the college bookstore. I had to really take s...
  11. Has anyone else..

    So many books....Yikes. I have been reading already and I am getting so excited and am so ready to start. Love seeing so many of us are feeling the same emotions.

  13. Feeling overwhelmed with gratitude

    I am one that believes that God will use people (not program them cuz that would make us robots) whether they know they are being used or not. Even the not so nice people.
  14. Feeling overwhelmed with gratitude

    God always gives us what we need just when we need it! I am so happy for you. :)
  15. I worked at a veterinary clinic up until May. A farmer that I know came in and when I told him I would be leaving there to go to school full time to be a nurse, I got an earful all about his "prostrate." It was awesome! LOL
