Thanks

im from cebu docotrs. graduated 2004. Im really not ready for this. hehehe. its too soon. hows it like there?

Well, it's quite okay here. Naturally you'd be culture-shocked initially but after a while, you'll get the hang of things. So you just waited a year & a half eh? Nice. I'm so jealous. I'm still on my damn pre-reqs.

Ye, i hope i'd get used to how things are done there. Thanks. Yep, i waited only for a year and a half or so... But im just so unready to leave home. Im starting to feel that i really dont know what im doing and that this is a "suicidal" move. I'll tell you guys all about it when i get there. hehehe. Thanks for your words of encouragment though. Im sure you will be able to accomplish your pre-reqs in time. What are those anyway? :idea:

Pre-reqs (pre-requisites) are subjects you need to take to get into the nursng program. It's not like in Cebu where they blend your "major" & "Minor" classes. That's why folks get done faster over there compared to here. Anyway, good luck on your new life. Don't be so pessimistic. This is an oppurtunity anyone would kill for in Cebu.

hi tonix! im also from cebu doctors. never mind when i graduated. hehe..anyways, i know you personally, that is. since the time you posted your first message, i guessed it was you. and your cousin recently confirmed it. you must be wondering now who i am. :confused: hmm....in the interests of privacy, i wouldnt say my real name but i will give you hints...and maybe you can PM me once you have an idea.

im a friend of your cousin who is now in RI, who was also my batchmate in cebu doc. the three of us have the same recruitment agency. and my hubbie is also a nurse and a clinical instructor at cebu doc. is that good enuf? :cool: just tell me if you need more clues. hehehe..

so, hows spring hill? i will be leaving on july 7 with my hubbie. we are employed by holmes regional medical center at melbourne. its on the east side of florida. we have a batchmate who is also going to springhill. maybe she'll be arriving there august. so, you bought a car already huh? thats quick. are you living on your own? hows everything so far?

keep in touch and take care!

Hi, I'm from Cebu and currently waiting for the result of the June 11-12 NLE. I started chewing NSA , but I was told that not unless one has passed the local, she can't move for CGFNS..well, of course, less the studying part.

hello. I am agitated too for my friend who took the exams this June. Any news if the results would be released this July. I know how it feels.... like hanging over a cliff...its not over until you see your name on the newspapers...goodluck to all of you

Cebuano here in SoCal! Born in the USA but raised in Cebu; Now I'm back and currently getting into my final semester of nursing school. Guess I'm kinda opposite of what everyone seems to be going through.
