FCCJ Fall 2008

Published

Hello all! Just thought I'd start a thread for all of those folks that have submitted, or are getting ready to submit, their applications for FCCJ's Fall '08 term.

I will be submitting my application in a few weeks, when this Spring term ends. I have taken my NAT (twice), so I'm good to go there, but still need to get my CPR class done. I called several places & I'm waiting to hear back from them.

I look forward to chatting with & getting to know all of you, who will be doing the count-down with me... on getting our acceptance letters!!!

I know it helps to sound-board off each other & to lean on each other for support... especially with getting all the things done that we have to do!

Best of luck & success to all!!!

LOL, I never wear makeup and usually look clumsy! I'm just a tomboy. I never quite got the hang of the whole, "look cool" thing. I'm just glad to look like me I guess!

I'm sure that your 40 years old with lasik surgery glasses will look ten times better than my clumsy, awkward 27!

sooo I got my uniforms today and they all fit great! I got one med shirt that fits fine and one large just in case i get pregos, and the lab coat is a little loose fitting but its just a lab coat, so all I have to do now is but pants and shoes and im good to go!

Congrats!! I'm still waiting to get my skills kit because money sucks. But I have everything else, and OMG, Orientation is next Thursday!! I can't wait, but at least work is super busy so the days go by faster.

Dizern, when did you order your uniforms? I ordered them about 4 days after getting the packet and there're still not here.

Well I left a message for the guy at worksource. I emailed him as well, hopefully not overkill. Believe it or not I thought the 7th was a Monday! Wow orientation is next Thursday!! Man oh man where did the time go? Hope everyone is doing well. Is anyone as nervous as I am??

Ok well I have an appt on Monday at 1:30. Talk about a quick reply. Thanks so much Bossladii for the info. He asked me your name and I was unable to tell him anything but your "call sign" lol. Thanks again.

Ok guys. I not I have not been part of this board very long and I don't make to many comments but I need to say this. I am having Lasik surgery on Monday so I am probably going to be in sunglasses during orientation. Mainly because I can't wear eye makeup for a week and I'm 40, so that's not good! I'm telling you guys this so I can eliminate a few people from secretly whispering that I look dumb or must think I am cool! I assure you that will not be the case. Now I won't have to dress a certain way or wear a green dot. I will be the pathetic, stupid, makeupless person in sunglasses!

I got lasik about eight months ago and it was the best thing I have ever done for myself. You are going to love it. Are you getting traditional lasik or PRK? My doctor said I could wear make-up after 2 days just not eye make-up for at least a week. Which was fine as long as I could wear Powder and bush. I freaked out after my surgery because the moon that night was blurry and it looked like spikes were coming out of it, but everything went back to normal so there was no need for me to be so scared. I asure you everything will be fine. Message me if you have any concerns after the surgery and just want another person who has been though before. Congrats!:cool:

I got my uniform today and they look pretty cute. I got the elastic band pants and they fit kind of weird but I guess they are scrubs. I like the little zipper on the top. It is all becoming real, YEAH!

ummm like about a week after i got the packet, they sent out an email saying that they shipped it the 30th, i assumed they sent everyones out at the same time....maybe you will get yours today!

Thank you guys very much. I am not going to wear the Lasik sunglasses. I'll look like I'm staring in the next Men In Black movie (haha). I appreciate all the support. I feel less self conscious already!

I got the same email sent out saying they were shipping out on the 30th but my UPS notification says it will be delivered on Monday.

Specializes in Intensive Care Unit.

Lasik... Hmmmm...

I'm thinking about getting them.

But my mom said that at 19, it wouldn't really do much. Why, I don't know. Maybe it's because she knows my eyes will get worse as age. LoL.
