Am I the only one??

I am enjoying it so far too!

I'm enjoying NS as well but it might be a fun way to get to know your fellow classmates in a more relaxed setting. I'm sure the whole time won't be complaining (or so I would hope!!). Just my

My only fear would be that this "venting session" could get out of hand and classmates could start naming professors, etc. Then, you may be associated with the rumors/talk that gets back to them.

I am loving nursing school, but I really enjoy college in general.

Yes, NS is stressful, at times upsetting, unnerving, and difficult . . . but I absolutely love it!!!!!!!

Nursing school is great. Every class finished just makes it so much better.

I love nursing school and feel no need to vent. When my classmates start complaining about how hard the tests are, how unhelpful the instructors are, how much work there is, etc. I just tell them Nursing School is hard. It is supposed to be hard. When we are done we will be RN's (after we pass the NCLEX, of course) and we will have people's lives in our hands. I don't know about you, but I want to be sure that I am ready to handle it.

I am enjoying many aspects of NS. It can get rough at times, and I know it will only get tougher, but I am doing my best. I try & tune out the people that vent, especially the ones that constantly make a habit out of it. I feel that I may have over prepared how hard it would be, my friends that have graduated warned me, so I wasn't in total shock when the ball got rolling. I take it day by day, test by test, clinical by clinical. Somedays I feel like I'm all thumbs, but today... I had a good day.

I would question if my program was too easy, I have great instructors that help make it possible to succeed, but by no means is it gravy...it's not supposed to be.

I think that it's never a bad idea to strengthen bonds with classmates. If a drink and some appetizers are involved, so much the better! It's nice that they asked you to join them. I'd go at least once to see if it was any fun.

I agree. My classmates and I went out Wed night to celebrate surviving our first 8 weeks. We had a great time and are even closer now!
