Does anyone have a nursing student blog?

I think it would be cool to have a "day in the life of a nursing student" blog, or something like that. I'd love to read about what a nursing student goes through on a daily basis, to help prepare me for what my days will be like. I'd love to read more about what a typical clinical day is like for the nursing students, or what they do in skills lab, etc.

This is the "nursingdiary.com", unfortunately, there are only 2 people there blogging--neither of which is from a nursing student. One is from someone trying to get into nursing school, the other from a currently working nurse.

I'm sure they'd love to get some more nursing students as bloggers!

studentdoctor also has a number of diaries for other kinds of health professionals: medschooldiary.com, vetschooldiary.com, premeddiary.com, residentdiary.com, DDSDiary.com...I'm not sure whether they actually have all those domain names now...the above URL seems to be a portal to all the different kinds of diaries.

I'm not in nursing school yet, but have a website which is about getting ready for nursing school. It will continue throughout my nursing school, and maybe even after that! :)

Any suggestions on what to add that's not already there, just let me know! :)

(It's spring break right now. LOL)

That no one, especially Marie_LPN who has one, mentioned the "journal" tab on this site...eh?

I've seen it and actually ALMOST started one on here, but I love making websites. I'd rather make my own. LOL :)

I have a blog...but it sure ain't about nursing! I love nursing, but my life is about so much more...and besides nursing school is a thorn in my behind and I wouldn't want to write about it all day. But it would be interesting to read someone elses.

I think there are some terms in the membership here that don't allow us to post links to our own individual blog sites - unless the policy has changed..... just so you recent posters are aware. :)

Please forgive my ignorance but could you define "Blog" I am not sure what it is except something on a computer. Thankyou.

How do you get to the membership terms again? I want to look it up just to be sure.

I did look in the TOS (link at the very bottom of every page. danu), and it mentioned no self-promotion in the advertising section. I think blogs would be kind of a grey area there.

However, the OP did ask for nursing blogs, not just websites, so my (un-mod-ly) opinion is that posting blog addresses in this thread is ok.

I also posted my blog address in the "websites" thread at some point, and if it is a problem with the TOS, I'll edit the post and take it out.

I know that you can't have your website in your signature, but this thread is requesting this information.

However, in response to your post, now I'll write the following:

I have one, but I can't let anyone know where it is.

OR.....

I have one, look at my profile to find the link.

:uhoh3:

Also, for Bryan's benefit, I do have a link to Allnurses.com on my website. :rolleyes:

Thanks. I looked at it again. blog request in a post seemed, as you say, in a grey area. Anyway, I took mine out and stick it in my profile where they have a url address as the other poster did. I am not going to waste time trying to figure out which way it is.
