  1. I find your comment hilarious. English is my 4th language, and science class is my 5th language. If I get accepted into the nursing program, it will be my sixth language. As I'm getting older, I'm getting impatient in learning parts of speech.
  2. You're just burnt out from seeing the same people and your access to direct patient care is limited due to a small population of patients that contribute to it. Be genuine to your boss about your problems and he/she will understand or open up a little bit. If it causes a conflict in your end by telling truths, then keep them to yourself. Give them a plenty of time to hire a new nurse and you should offer that you will be willing to help them out to orient him/her. Anyway, by law, they cannot punish your children when you will resign. Good luck on your new journey. If I were you, I would do some part-time somewhere else so I don't feel life is boring.
  3. Thanks for sharing. I'm struggling with the reading comprehension.
  4. In all schools I applied to, CNA is one of the criteria they look for. 've been a CNA for over 6 months. I'm waiting patiently to be accepted in the program; and/meanwhile, I do need to redo some of my humanity and social science courses because these are dragging my GPA down.
  5. She had 82 points.
  6. As an adult, all of my friends are females. Eventually, I got married. It bothers me when heterosexual males spreading rumors that I was a bisexual then there was this group of women who were either lesbians or bisexuals also said the same thing. They all teased me that I was one, just hid it. They all presumed that I wanted women romantically based on my social circle due to the fact that I didn't have boyfriends in my teenage life or early adulthood. In fact, two of them solicited me for a threesome. I gave them a straight answer that I liked and respected them for who they were, asking me to participate in their sexual activity was unfathomable and they should leave me alone. I didn't say anything sounds condescending or demeaning, but they suddenly removed me from their life. Well, I didn't want to stalk them that can end up in the databases of the law enforcement, so I let them go. If they will decide they will want me around, they will contact me. So far, it has been 7 years since the last time we spoke after I refused to have sex with them. They accused me of something didn't cross my mind that I was an intolerance or prejudice person towards them, their sexual orientation. At this point, I learned to ignore or not to correct people's mind. It's their business to crap on their own rainbow. Discriminating me for being a straight female has NEVER been acceptable and will never be tolerated. It goes both ways. I could actually sue them for soliciting me. I definitely support that nobody deserves to be maltreated. When you have a hard evidence or witness, lawyer up. Whining doesn't resolve in anything. How people behave toward us, we cannot control it. We all get it; some of us don't care and move on. For example, I have a different issue. Some girls, who are acquaintances or friends of my friends guard their ugly husbands when I'm around. I used to get upset how they treated me. These days, I take it as a compliment, I must be a hot girl.
  7. I don't recall being able to sit except when I chart or take a break.
  8. Without clients, we have no jobs. However, it's always the best choice to give up our seat to our clients. It's part of our hospitality. Look down? It doesn't bother me if my charge nurse or stranger does it to me. I'm not insulted. It's humiliating when it's my own family and husband are embarrassed because I'm a CNA. They discouraged me from working on my license/certificate. In fact, they aggressively recommended that I should use my non-nursing degree to work while waiting for my acceptance from my preferred school. I insisted that I'm happy where I am right now and I get to learn basic skills for my current and future career. They're disgusted and disappointed by me. I can tell with their body language.In short, once I will become an RN, I will not want them in my graduation, continuously limit my socialization with them, and/or they will be RNs themselves to restore their relationship with me and probably will divorce my husband. I don't need people to like me because of my title. They have no idea that I'm hurt Proud to be a CNA!
  9. My colleague didn't get a call, but she was accepted at COS. However, her coworker got a call from the West Hills College Lemoore.
  10. No, I didn't. I'm still waiting. How about you?
  11. The Traditional Program's Orientation Day will be on May 30th 2017 unless they changed it to 28th as the OP posted. That's what nurses do...Dates can be changed. Lol I applied for the traditional RN program.
  12. I have no idea why the NCLEX Pass Rate is quiet low. Anyway, thanks for your respond.
  13. If you don't mind to disclose, how many points do you have ? And when did you apply? Mine was turned before the deadline.
  14. All schools I checked required the math and English courses but vary. Some schools required at least 3 English classes and college algebra (or above) for the BSN program. For your note, all majors require math and English courses unless you're applying to the vocational school. Still, some vocational schools require math and English classes. It really depends on which school you want to attend.
  15. Not a nurse and I wasn't in my scrubs either but t-shirt and jeans. A cop gave me a verbal warning. My bf got pissed off because he never got a warning.
  16. It makes me teary when I see kids being neglected or maltreated. It reminds me of my early life. The child you're describing and I had a similar story except that I'm in the spectrum of the so-called normal kid. I stopped talking to many people after my mother's death. I have withdrawn from my peers who were mean to me because I had no parents to drop me off or pick me up. I walked every day, rain or shine. My family was dysfunctional and I eventually disconnected myself from them. I lost everyone because I was desperate to remove cancerous people in my life. I can attest that I have improved my life and visited many places already, but I feel emptiness. Nothing seems to make it up. Sometimes, I can admit that I wish I had a semi-good family but... For your side note, I did visit my relatives. I wish I didn't do it and I'm glad I did it. There were pretending to be normal for awhile. Since then, I keep them away from me. If they need foods or medicines, I don't mind to send some cash. I know that I sound complicated, but I'm doing it for them as they were strangers to me who I have given some donation to get by. I also volunteer or donate for the poor kids or adults. However, it's inevitable to be born to people who are savages, selfish, druggist, alcoholic, and many others. I'm so grateful that I stand strong for myself. I have no history of drug or alcohol abuse. What I have noticed is that I don't have an emotional attachment to anybody. I will be always like this. I do care for others' welfare.My childhood wasn't pretty at all. People like you are the reason why I didn't give up life. Some people in my environment are skeptical about me for being nice to them. They think that I would take advantage of them later on. In fact, I'm not that kind of a person. I used to get hurt, but I don't care these days. I continue to stay kind to everyone whether they think that I'm an opportunist or not. I could careless of about their paranoia or opinion due to the fact that some people are too busy to speculate negativity. And others perceive me as an arrogant b or I'm better than them. When I hear unsolicited gossips float around, I tell the person to kindly send my message to the person "You're wasting your ATP on me for nothing or join me."

    Someday, we will not be able to hide our age. Our wrinkle will show no matter what. We may as well enjoy the ride of looking youthful. I still pass being a 20 year old. I'm flattered. Nice body form and fit at my age, I've been mistaken as minor several time in the nightclubs. I learned to show my cleavage when I go out. This works a lot. At my workplace, every now and then a resident refuses to be assisted by me because s/he thinks that I'm a high school student. First time I experienced this, I asked where the kid was in the facility when the resident said something to me. The patient stared at me like I was treating him/her like a person had a mental problem. The person exclaims "Are you messing with me?" in an irritated tone. I calmly explained myself that I thought she meant that there was a lost kid in her room and s/he was hiding from me when I came in; that was the reason why I asked her/him where the kid was. After this, I changed my composure. It helps a lot when I smile and greet them in a way that I look more confident and capable. The appearance of being looking young would be stomped when I smile, introduce my name and title, greet them, and explain my purpose. Although they probably just trying to make me happy, I trust people that they're complimenting me genuinely. There are too many important things to think or do than wondering whether they are real when they say something nice. In short, I hardly have someone calls me by name. I'm everyone's sweetie or honey.
  18. I'm in the same boat. Hopefully, we all get to start soon.
