I understand your frustration with your family. But, using the word retarded to describe them is offensive to the mentally challenged people. Especially if you are going to be a nurse, it is important that you have the understanding and maturity in reference to peoples diseases and illnesses.

I really do apologize for my use of the word - and I haven't used it in a long time after someone asked me not to. I was more implying that you would have to be mentally challenged to do to me what my idiot family has done. Or psychotic (which most of them are). I apologize - I won't do it again, I guess, though I was under the impression this was a venting thread. Again, sincere apologies.:loveya:
First of all retarded can be applied to a multitude of impairments, infact it just means that something about something is underdeveloped, so ease off the whole PC bandwagon, its kind of immature.
Anyways I am letting out my frustration that is built up from all the "pre-med" and "pre-pharm" students in my bio for science major class that talked mad crap on me for "only" wanting to be a nurse, and now they are all looking at nearly failing midterms while I havent got a question wrong yet. How can anyone think that they can be a doctor when they can't do simple assays, let alone grasp the basic concepts of biology...
Fabulous thread ... Im enjoying reading it. I just paid for my first pre-req (Chemistry) and my books should be coming any day now. I start next Monday (26th) and am sooo excited to start this journey even though It looks like it's going to be quite the roller coaster!!
Hi, i dont think this is the right thread to post this...But, i was a pre-pharm student and i was taking all my pre-reqs and it just seemed to be an endless list...argh, i was sooo fustrated... i was worried that i was going to spend 4 yrs in college and have like a bachelors in pre-reqs.. so i was talking to my aunt and she was like why dont you do nursing? and i was like really..but then we went into walgreens and i just changed my mind.... i realize that all pharmacists dont work at walgreens but it was just depressing and to me is seemed like a boring way to spend one's time... you see, i enjoy when my life is moving at 80mph...when everything is fast..i get a thrill from stress for some wierd reason...so i am changing my major to nursing....i have just 2 more semesters of pre-reqs before i apply ( i was spending my time taking all my pharm pre-reqs)...but so far i am doing good...from what i have read...it seems to be a high-stress job...so i am looking forward to it....But here's a scream for you guys that are stressed out......AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I'm screaming, but refuse to die of stress as I make the decision to withdraw from my Microbiology class, which means I have to leave it for the Summer session instead. Ugh. So instead of being done with my prereqs by May, I have to return for Summer.
Again, sincere apologies.:loveya:
