   x0xerika replied to Bleumorgan's topic in Travel

   Seriously? What did you think I was asking advice for, if I should travel to the moon? I wrote Anyone with advice on travel nursing and if it would be okay for me? I didn't ask if a fortune teller could tell me my future and if I would enjoy my job. ...

   I believe I'm asking my question fairly clear. I'm not wanting to know if nursing is for everyone, because I know it is not. I'm not asking about dialysis nursing, or else I would have gone to a dialysis thread. I am not asking for advice on if I wil...

    x0xerika posted a topic in General Nursing

    After you graduate nursing school and pass your boards, do you normally go for whatever job is available? Or do you have good luck at landing a job in your choice of environment? How do you know which area you would want to work in? I would love to w...

14. Something that may help me get through nursing school with my sanity!

    x0xerika replied to x0xerika's topic in Pre-Nursing
