Im a first year nursing student

Love-A-Nurse · Oct 2, 2002

to me, simply because someone says that something is overwhelming or stressful, they don't hate it. i love nursing. when considering the fact that i have children, and other responsibilities that would go on regardless of school, it can be a tiring thing.

i love being in school, but do i like the early hours, no, i love learning, but do i get tired of studying, yes, but do i stop studying, no.

i, as an lpn, get tired of the "stress" of my job but i love what i do and would reccommend nursing in a heart beat. if i didn't love it, i would never have started this semester of rn school. so, i think sometimes, some of us use words and don't mean it literally, i speak from experiences and for myself too.

no one knows whether you are going to like it but you. all the best to you and welcome to the board.

I am loving it too

Though many people in my class seem really stressed and I think that is in part to that they work F/T and have families and are going to school...

I have my "life" (and my family's) very organized so I have time to study etc. I am hoping the study habits I am building now will help once stuff gets tougher.

Good luck!

I found this sight last week and find it very interesting;)
