Nothing done yet - no physical, no uniforms, no CPR nothing!!! Anyone want to do CPR together if possible?? Also, who wants to help me get together ~$1500 in the next 6w so I can pay for classes, books and the first month of $600/mo daycare?? Ahhhhhh!!!
I think those pants are really cute. I am just going to go to the life uniform shop in University mall to see what they have for pants. I hate ordering on the internet because I need it to look normal on me haha.
I think I prefer EC because it is familiar but I will take what I get and may be pursuaded to swap if someone really needs/wants what I have--I have my kids all sorted and have for months...I *am* a planner.
I have a feeling those pants would not pass the nursing program rules on not "scrub" pants, because of the cargo style pockets. You may want to look at the phcc bookstore online to see how basic theirs are.
Flbrowneyedgirl or MJ I will gladly give either one of you EC if I can get WC!! That goes for anyone else too. I live in Spring Hill so I have a feeling they might make me do EC if it goes by distance.
Thanks everyone for info and links on pants. I have to try mine on too because pants are always iffy.
University Mall use to not be Ghetto when I was a little girl......However............anyway we might be over that way this weekend going to Busch Gardens. Doubt I'll get to go to the mall though DH hates the Ghetto Mall he says it makes his people look bad.
Knock yourselves out though and remember the nurse uniforms at Fredricks are not appropriate school attire.

I used to work at Gap in UM back in the late 90's! It was soooooooo not ghetto then. Amazing what has happened to that place. But if anyone is a true Tampanian, you will remember Eastbay mall and Tampa Bay mall and the route those two eventually went down.
I went to the PHCC bookstore yesterday and bought the scrub tops. I had to try them on to make sure which was the best for me plus they were $17.49 or something. I bought two tops and two patches before I realized each top needs two patches sewn on... I guess I will be making a stop there at orientation. I'm assuming they are waiting until after July 6th to send out the orientation packages all at once. Also, I just bought my stethoscope off of eBay. It was $71 with tax from a very reputabler buyer and it is a Littmann Classic II SE in orange! So cute! And the cheapest price I've found because at allheart.com the shipping puts it at about $80 or more. I'm cheap. *wine Wait, not that kind of cheap!

(There is a BIG difference between frugal and smart and needing to keep an eye on money bc of being a poor student and being CHEAP.... )
How do the tops run size wise? Is the fabric chintzy and itchy and awful?
Good call checking ebay for stethoscope.
I had my blood drawn for titers this morning (long story but my medical records are missing, what a pain) and a PHCC phleb student did the draw! She was TERRIFIC! No pain, no problem :) I felt very proud, lol, like I'm her mom or something.
Ahhhhhh!!!
