Fun at Nursing School

Just wanted to start a thread for people to share some fun memories they have/had in nursing school.

Mine was from the very beginning of nursing school, when we were in the skills lab learning all basic principals of head to toe assessment etc....as we are learning how to properly listen for lung sounds, our instructor states that sometimes trying to listen over the clothing can make it harder to hear. Without thinking twice about it, I start stripping my shirt off right there to make it easier for my fellow student to hear....little did I know I had forgotten my undershirt that day. So here you have a 6ft1 280LB hairy grizzly bear half naked in the middle of class. The looks on everyone's face was priceless.

Our nursing school scrub shipment arrived the day before our first ever clinical which was med-surge. My scrubs were HUGE but I had no time to go out and buy or order new ones... The first day at clinical my instructor brought me downstairs to the hospital uniform shop to buy scrub pants because I literally couldn't walk around without holding the pants up with my hands.. So embarrasing! But hilarious to look back on

Also the best was getting lunch with the clinical group after morning clinical and discussing code browns and weird stuff we saw. Nobody could sit near our table..
