Very inspiring story,i can tell your such a wonderful person

Thanks quoting me angelvenice.. Anyway I made a thread months ago about Assingnment&Delagations. I hope some of you may find some time to drop by there and check. It might be a help on you guys. Just awhile ago I replied there but anyway I will repost it here too. I am also a Filipino and living here in California.

here is my last messages there....

Hey guys, sorry I just come back here. I am very glad that this thread has been a good help for some of you. Anyway, for those who are asking about the links and free sites it's on page2 no.14 of this thread and the links included there were LaCharity 1st Ed. just click it and download on your computer. I think Allnurses blocked one of the link there so I'll just put it here in a manner that you all have to put it together all the right words. here we go it's.. r..n..p.e.d.i.a..dot..com in this site just focus more on 1.infection control,2.Leadership& Management 3.Medical&Surgical. I highly recommend to master the infection control (my checkin hez tb? mnemonics?) and delegation&prioritization. Print them and post it in your wall or any moment you turn your head you'll gonna see it. More importantly.. Be FOCUS and develop/stick on your ROUTINE! Make a promise to yourself and make a Trade..(ex. giving up browsing your Facebook for the meantime as it hindrances to your review and your new facebook is this site allnurses.com and any NCLEX related sites. Another thing..giving up your nightlife is a must, don't put your cellphone by your side while you are on your review, NO TV or DVDs or angry birds game/any games except on your unscheduled time. Your priority for now is passing the NCLEX than anything else so embrace it. Above all PRAY and have faith. Trust me everything will be fine. I know sounds spoon feed motivation but some of us needs reminders. in advance and God bless you my fellow RN's

On the side note. STAY POSITIVE, DON'T ever allow any single negative engulf you& STAY AWAY from negative people and environment because they're contagious. Yes? Alright!

For those who ask about study buddy I could be available if you are close to Hayward, California it's in Bay Area. Though, I cannot guarantee to be with you most of the time but at least I'll do my best as I can on our meeting.. It would be in the Library just in case... You can normally see me there anyway self studying Spanish language it would be best if you can go with me too hitting the gym right after study/review.Remember NCLEX is very stressful so exercise is the best answer for it. I could lend my books too just in case you don't have. K! Just message me guys.

Good for you guys, almost all of you are from Calif...guess I'm the only one left here in NC (huhuhu). Anyway, if you are starting with your review already...then good luck. Took the first one and failed, now I'm back to studying again. I'm starting now my La Charity book on PDA. Those who can help with more tips, please post more...it would be a great help! We can do it buddies!!! Trust God more!

Just an advice for Filipino Nurses, I won't recommend kaplan but Saunders and Lacharity if you choose to self review, especially if your a Philippine graduate nurse...but if you think its hard to study by yourself, it would be best to enroll in classes where most of students are filipinoes. Some things are hard to explain in english but you would understand in tagalog and would be easy to retain on your mind.

why wouldnt u recommend Kaplan for filipino nurses?
