My class decided to make nursing T-shirts for our graduating pinning ceremony rehearsal. This is what the front of the T-shirt says-

NDX: altered thought processes R/T to overused brain as evidenced by borderline grades.

NOC: Driving a Benz SUV without C/O increasing gas prices.

The back of the shirt says:

Clinical manifestations of a nursing student:

1. You have CA of the pockets

2. You have no social life

3. Your house is never clean

4. Your marriage is on the rocks

5. Your night out is a study group

6. Your family doesn't recognize you

7. You have dark circles under your eyes

8. You have carpal tunnel syndrome from writing care plans

9. You have scoliosis from lugging nursing books

10. You always have alcohol pads in your pocket

11. You feel SOB most of the time

12. You ache for help STAT

Very witty. I love it!

I'm going to have to talk to the ANS officers planning our ceremony and ask them to do something like this. I have heard so many complaints of disappointing pinning ceremonies. The T-shirt idea will make everyone smile at least, even if the ceremony turns out lame.

BORDERLINE! I told my instructor to come check me out for school on Monday (we had clinical on Friday)! Not to mention the analizing & assessment my wife and daughter endure.

They say around here "Navy wife, the hardest job in the Navy" the same could be said for NS families.

I don't have my nursing T-shirt with me (left it in my dorm room), but the gist of it says:

You know you're a FUS nursing student when:

1) You are asked if you are a transfer or a freshman your junior/senior year

2) Random people ask you to look at their physical wounds/ailments and expect you to fix it

3) when you live in the nursing wing

4) when you have seen both the sunrise & the sunset while staying up to study

5) when you talk about diseases and physical ailments at the table and don't turn a hair

6) you wear white during the off season

darn. I can't remember the rest. I love the shirt though. I've had people walk behind me and grab the back of my shirt without warning so they read the writing without the wrinkles. lol
